    Y’all ever notice how much male sexuality is performative for the benefit of other men? I’m not saying that they’re gay, they just seem more motivated by peer approval and status than touching a girl.

    I recently saw an interview with a stripper who said that the dudes who wanted attention from the girls used $100 bills and were discrete, while the dudes who tossed 100 $1 bills were more interested in the attention of their buddies.

      There’s a weird thing with “conquest”, pulling the ladies, and being somewhat deviant that’s tied to manliness and straightness for some reason.

    Many defendants arrived at the hearing with their bags packed ready for prison. One of them was in tears as he hugged his companion before entering the courtroom.

    Aww, boo fucking hoo. 🖕🏾

          Eligible for probation at 13 years and 4 months. I hope he suffers.

          They should’ve thrown out the maximum years for a case like this. They should’ve thrown out parole eligibility too.

            If you can throw it out for one case you can throw it out for every case.

            Unlike the US, most countries in the EU - including France - have a justice system that is not attempting to maximize recidivism, which is why maximum sentences exist for every crime except murder.

            Furthermore, at least in Germany the constitutional court ruled that life sentences without the eligibility of parole violate human dignity as such sentences would take away all hope from prisoners which significantly harms them. I wouldn’t be surprised if France had similar rulings.

    Watch precisely how they defend all the men. Rape is rape. No matter what. Lock them up, forget where you have put the Keys.

    “okay but women not wanting to date men is just overreacting” - a sentiment we see even here on fucking Lemmy.

    Fifty different men. He also trained these men how to rape their wives.

      I was thinking it really wasn’t that bad on here as you described, but I just read some other comments under this post and I was dead wrong. Disappointing.

      We’ve dodged a lot of the usual garbage from Reddit over here, but that one definitely stuck around. The only negative comments I’ve received on any of my lemmy accounts are guys furious when you point out men are more violent partners. Like they just cannot admit that as a society the ‘boys will be boys’ mentality was used to allow a lot of awful behaviours like rape. Hell, Revenge of The Nerds has a rape scene in it and people only recently started to speak out against it.

      So, sorry for the downvotes, but at least we all know it’s a bunch of insecure men. Maybe they’ll learn, maybe they won’t, but you have allies here in the mean time.

      The irony of people downvoting this… Can’t see the forest through the trees. Or more accurately, can’t see further than the tips of their dicks.

        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.

          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.

      Like what if reading too many science books actually was illegal and you could go to jail for that?

      That’s an odd thing to compare to rape

      Well the main difference there would be between this case and sex between you and your wife I’d hope would be there was consent between you two.

        There should always be consent. That’s number 1.

      It would fucking suck if all you wanted was so easily reachable and achievable without harm to anyone but totally illegal.

      Do tell sir, how what this woman went through wasn’t ’harming anyone’.

      You want your wife to drug you and then let 50 men rape you?

      Well, if you consent to that, then nobody will go to jail and all will be well.

      Unless the drugs are illegal, I guess. Use legal drugs and write your consent. Have a lawyer look it over. Then, have fun!
