      Personally, I have raped exactly the number of women in my life that I have wanted to. 0.

      Just because you are a man, it does not automatically make you untrustworthy, but it is prudent to exercise caution with all people in general—we are unpredictable apes.

        People are definitely shit, in general, but we shouldn’t ignore statistics because of that. Men are awful. We’re the worst.

        yeah I have since amended to really just people in general. Another thing people need to remember is that unfortunately people tend to be screwed by the people closest to them. We are a sad little species.

          We are a normal species. It is not unusual for animals to pick on the weak—just look at how many mammals eat the runt of the litter.

          The lesson, I believe, is to take your own protection seriously, and not underestimate the potential of people around you due to familiarity. Hope for the best, be prepared for the worst.
