“This should be so obvious that it doesn’t need to be said, but apparently it does: If you don’t want old rapists running the world, in office, in the board room, making decisions for all of us, get comfortable with 'ruining' young rapists’ lives.” Jessica Price @delafina777.bsky.social

Why don't these people ever think about the lives that are already fucking ruined? These women's lives will never be the same again. So that doesn't matter?? Boys will be boys?? Jesus fucking Christ.

    Women aren't fully human in the eyes of a significant percentage of men.

    I use a wheelchair and I can't tell you how many times I see another woman, make eye contact with her, we both understand that I'm not going to clip her, and without a word the guy she's with will just grab her arm and pull her to the side.

    Happens pretty much every time I'm on a train platform, now that I've started noticing I can't unsee it, just complete lack of respect for the agency of the person they think they possess.

    Not that I needed to be convinced, but this is a very elegant way to put it.
