Yep. Of course, the fact that women are subject to much higher levels of street harassment is completely unrelated. As is the knowledge that in going to a club or pub, you must anticipate being groped by men as par for the course. The fact that women are constantly told that we should police our behaviour and our clothing to avoid leading men on does not at all reinforce the mentality that led to this crime.
Of course, women should just not worry about the possibility of death because they rejected a guy. We should just be chill, because there's nothing at all in our experience to suggest that this is simply the extreme expression of our everyday experience.
Sure you can worry. A man can worry too if some random chick would jump out a bush a slit his throat because of last night.
When are the last two times this year that this has happened?
All I see is just a giant whining campaign. Yes, this was a horrible incident. Yes, the guy was a crazy dick. We know all of this, it's not like the police would have ignored this because of the backstory. No-body is saying this is justified, but thinking most men are like this and that have women have the right to punch, kick and then put his salami in a deep frier if he DARES to say a suggestive comment, at a Pub, where you willingly went to, knowing exactly that you will get those comments.
You're really not taking the time to understand the point being made.
