Surprised no one brought up the issue of rape in the military yet...

It's impossible to stop culturally because sociopaths exist.

Mercator @ 2/11/2017 2:36 It's impossible to stop culturally because sociopaths exist. If that's an answer here that could be an answer to any or every crime. I dont buy it. Non-sociopaths commit crimes. Also, i don't think sociopaths control what's going on culturally. To be more clear, when i say stopping something culturally i do not mean stopping it absolutely (altho that would be great). I mean not living in a culture where this is so widespread that it comes out within a month that multiple public figures have done it

A lot of normal people commit crimes out of necessity or are influenced to do so.

There are ~4 - ~13 million sociopaths in the US. You very likely know a few without knowing they are ones.

I think I read that around 1 in 4 CEOs are ones, if they are smart then it's easy for them to game the system and people to get into positions of power.
I'm fairly sure that Hillary Clinton is one for example(of manipulating systems and people to get into power).

I wouldn't be surprised if a lot of actors are too since they've probably been acting all their lives to seem normal.

I'm not saying that only they do it BTW.

But I don't think many do it that aren't ones or aren't psychologically damaged in some way.

"No, it's not. That's like saying "Hey, we shouldn't try to stop people from drunk driving because people will do it anyway."

No it's not like saying that
That's what you think it implies for some reason.

I've slept for 5 hours the past 48 hours and I CBF teaching how to think.

Mercator @ 2/11/2017 2:36 It's impossible to stop culturally because sociopaths exist. What about changing the rest of society

Yes

I think a big part of that that needs more work on is breaking the circles of abuse.
Somehow.

Just what a sociopath would post.

No it's not like saying that That's what you think it implies for some reason. I've slept for 5 hours the past 48 hours and I CBF teaching how to think. It is, because it says that this only happens from sociopaths and since sociopaths are already messed up, then we can't do anything. This goes way beyond sociopaths, because men do not realize how embedded some of the behavior is. Again, bringing up the UK Defense Minister touching a woman journalist's knee. Dudes say "That's not rape- this is no big deal!" except for the fact that it is. He'd *never* have done that to a dude, ever. And if a dude did it to him, he'd have freaked the fuck out. It's like the rampant homophobia- saying shit like "the gays are recruiting" as if the only reason these guys aren't gay is because a gay guy never asked them out or something. Gay isn't a disease that gets passed from somebody to another- you either are or you aren't. But it's the culture we've established that allows shit like that.

Am I being trolled?

What's an SJW?

The answer you get depends on if you ask a SJW or anyone else.

I'm very happy that my BBPE board game is still going. Thank you all for signing up without knowing you signed up.

Am I being detained?

Eh, what's the problem?
He has deep issues but is pretty open about it with his self deprecating humor, and asks beforehand.
Maybe he was thrown to the media dogs for this week so that some actual predators have more time.

If his career is over I'd be pissed.

I dunno but I don't think I'd want Louis CK blocking a hotel doorway while masturbating and refusing me exit from the room.

Did he do that?

He has deep issues but is pretty open about it with his self deprecating humor, and asks beforehand. just in case it's news, "asking beforehand" is only the first step And "cease action" is the only second step if asking results in a no. Not casual doorway masturbation.

None of those stories (in the new article) have him doing it after a no.

The doorway shit is way over the line disgusting, but what I read was anonymous secondhand+ just part of the story stuff, which should be taken with a grain of salt.
If you have a better source than what I found, please share.

One of them said she said yes multiple times, apparently it's still an issue.

"repeatedly asked her to watch him masturbate, she said. She was in her early 20s and went along with his request"
“I think the big piece of why I said yes was because of the culture,”

Did you not read the article?
