And you wonder why women don't report their rapists

[Professor Emeritus]

That Eric Eugene Wilkes story police really ain't shyt.

Some of the same folk bytching that the OP story was a white rapist are completely avoiding that one.

He violently raped at least 10 different women who reported it, probably others too who didn't report it or who didn't end up with his DNA in their rape kit. Of the 10 women who reported the rape AND submitted to a rape kit in time AND ended up with his DNA showing up in their rape kit, the police didn't pursue NONE of those fukking cases. Not one. Not until the 11th violent rape that his DNA was connected to, a good 18 years after the 1st one, did they finally test the fukking kit and go after him.

This isn't just a race issue if all those women could report a black man raped them and the fukking police didn't do shyt to investigate it.

@Rhakim it seems like a lot of posters in this site are allergic to serious discussion.

Thank you.

i think i read somewhere that 25% of the women you know have been raped.

so if you have 4 daughters, theres a good chance one of them will be raped

this is the kind of society we all co-sign

Honestly, I stayed away for a month and it was a good idea, responses like the ones I got here continue to prove that.

I probably should and will leave again and it will be better if I stay away for longer.


Folk making every excuse in the book to not discuss a serious issue, even when the #'s prove me right. But they want to deflect just cause I used a white criminal as the example? Do they want this to be fukking Breitbart or some shyt where we post a bunch of Black folk committing criminal acts? If I was pulling that shyt they'd use that as the deflection instead.

The #'s proved it - the vast, vast majority of rape accusations don't result in any meaningful punishment, regardless of skin color. And THAT is the issue that actually needs to be talked about on this forum, considering all the other shyt is stuff we all already agree on. I'm not sure what I should post in order to get folk to actually talk about the "rape is hardly ever prosecuted" issue rather than deflecting to other shyt.

Go log off for another month.......your a weirdo bruh

If you google you can see the general #'s backed up in lots of different places. This article has one of the breakdowns, with sources for each step.

Why are we so bad at prosecuting sexual assault?

"The data here is admittedly murky. National studies don’t consistently distinguish rape from sexual assault, an umbrella term that includes rape as well as other forced sex acts."

Not even gonna bother with the rest of your post if this is what you're posting

Some don't want to

Because acknowledging the truth will mean that they are technically lucky to not deal with an issue

Which means they have a privilege

And admitting you have a privilege means admitting that you are lucky, and that not every good thing in your life is your own doing. It means your benefits are partially influenced by your luck


It's annoying too because half the time, no one is even saying that all men are rapists outside of fringe people online. It's just simple acknowledgement.

THAT is the excuse you're gonna use to ignore the issue now?


"I was angry when I thought all of these men were getting away with rape, but now that I know some of them might only have gotten away with forced sex acts, I don't even care enough to make an issue of it."

I'm actually interested in the statistic, but don't quote me if you're going to copy and paste random article links just to win an argument like this is some twitter discussion

 

[fact]

Yup.

The # of excuses I've heard on this site is wild.

"If he's famous or attractive then it wasn't rape."
"If she was ever interested in him then it wasn't rape."
"If she was too intimidated to physically resist because she thought he could beat/kill her, it wasn't rape."
"If she ever interacted with him socially again, it wasn't rape."

There were brehs in here who said they would never believe a rape charge unless there were witnesses.

Some folks on here just hate women, while others are like “this is cac shyt, so who cares”, even mods. I don’t blame you at all for taking a step back from here, sometimes it just gets overwhelming how hateful folks are. This sit and SOHH always had trolls, but this hip hop/sports community (SOHH included) was never this blatantly hateful/hurtful. Is it the current climate of edgelords/MGTOW, or is it a bunch of motherless/sisterless weirdos that equate empathy with being “woke”? It’s probably a mix of both, as well as brain worms from conservative media that folks on here swear they don’t consume, yet have every single talking point down as soon as they are distributed.

They're not "random article links", the part I quoted gave the direct sources for each step in the claim. If you think the numbers are wrong and can prove it then go for it, but do you want me to write a fukking peer-reviewed paper on the issue and post it in entirety here before you take it seriously?

The part you chose to contest was the fact that some other "forced sex acts" are lumped together with rape when every state has a different rape definition and even the justice system itself hasn't had a consistent definition of rape. Until 2012, the official definition of rape by the Justice Department ONLY included vaginal rape with a penis, so anal rape, oral rape, and rape with an object weren't even technically "rape" under the official definition.

You tell me where there is any national study that perfectly includes all reported rapes without mixing any other "forced sex acts" into the definition, when different states have different rape definitions and various police departments are all gonna report shyt differently. Hell, I don't even know what your definition of "real rape" is.

 

[TELL ME YA CHEESIN FAM?]

But in 49 out of every 50 rape cases, the alleged assailant goes free

This can't be true..nah

 

[Professor Emeritus]

This can't be true..nah

Read the links. The data points to that being correct. Even if someone tried to argue on the fringes, claim it was just 94-95% of reported rapes not resulting in any jail time, it's still so fukking high as to be incredible.

An Epidemic of Disbelief

Why Society Goes Easy on Rapists

Why are we so bad at prosecuting sexual assault?

Less than 1% of rapes lead to felony convictions




And just as bad in the UK:

Only 1.7% of reported rapes prosecuted in England and Wales

Fewer than one in 60 rape cases lead to charge in England and Wales

Just 1.5% of all rape cases lead to charge or summons, data reveals

NOT GUNA READ ALL THAT, BUT WAS IT ACTUAL RAPE OR WAS IT GIRLS GOT DRUNK AND REGRETTED THE SEX LATER RAPE?

HARD TO TELL NOWADAYS WIT WHAT SOME WOMEN CLAIM RAPE IS

 

[karim]

Don't forget the alleged attraction of the victim factors into whether both males and females believe her, the female judges in Italy decided the victim of a rape was too ugly for it to have been done to her. Yikes

Tarana Burke a rape victim and founder of #metoo is frequently lampooned on this very site every time she's a topic.

 

[Yinny]

A lot of females hate women, so while alarming and troubling to make it to the legal sphere, it was an eventual point of how absurdly (buzzword) we would become.
