This is true, I know a Japanese woman who when she would take the little train things they have in the city that being groped and squeezed is a common thing. She also noted that guys will even grope her at her work as a noodle-shop waitress.

So, yeah, that stereotype is true.

I wasn't stating it based on a stereotype. For example:
Crowded trains are a favourite location for groping and a 2001 survey conducted in two Tokyo high schools revealed that more than 70% of students had been groped while travelling on them.[1]

That's a startling high figure, but regardless, I know that stuff like that can be a problem there. They don't have women-only carriages for nothing.

I don't understand how a nation that didn't have their first movie scene kiss until 1947 turned into that in under 60 years.

It's Japan. They were quite isolated until the 1850s. Yet just a bit more than 50 years after that they were winning a war from Russia. Not even to mention what happened after that.

Maybe you could edit the petition into your OP, so it doesn't get lost on page 31.

Also question to Mods: is there any other way we could promote the petition on the site, besides keeping this thread active?


Agreed. I only noticed the Petition by chance.

When a thread includes a Poll, that Poll is at the top of every page of the Thread. Is there a way to put the Petition link at the top of each page?

Likewise maybe a better thread title? I avoided this thread for ages because squick, I don't want to know.

Pornography still legally has to be censored or something. It's because the society has allowed it to develop that way. Women are still largely expected to be submissive I gather which probably doesn't help.

Ik. The post I was replying to was talking about how reverse racism is racism. I was being somewhat facetious as I thought that wasn't the type of reverse racist she was talking about.

Well, I'm not sure it comes under the racism label at all since last time I checked, racism required you to actually hold a belief about a race.

Let me show you what you said.

I know male-rape is an issue, that's why I addressed it. But it is very rare that women rape,


Heavily implying that when women rape, it's always raping men. You're not getting it. You keep implying stereotypes that are completely false, even if you don't mean it.


Ok those are two different statements. Not meant to go together. You are just reading it wrong. I'm not implying any stereotype whatsoever.. I already recognized that there are female rapists and i know they dont only rape men, so I'm not sure what you're arguing about? Is it just to ramble on?

And the opposite is that in Japanese Porn, the women have pubic hair, so the Audience can imagine that we are making love to consenting adults. American porn is all about no pubic hair and imagining we are doing it to 8 year olds.

Paradox: if there is more non-consensual groping on Japanese trains than American trains although Japanese Porn is more consensual than American porn???

i imagine the reason they have pubic is hair is so they can try to avoid having to pixel it up and ruin the scene

the unfortunate pitfalls of a legal system where you couldn't be raped by your husband until 1996 and men can't be raped period

Oh there's white privilege, male privilege, etc. There's lots of privilege bull shit.
I think that white privilege exists, sure. But it depends on where you are, what you're doing, etc. There's always going to be a privilege. I certainly don't have white privilege in the middle of Compton, but maybe I have it trying to get a job at a diner in Texas. Privileges will always be there, but they're not something to blame your problems on, is what I'm saying.


this sorta makes sense and at the risk of smugness is good enough for me at this point in time. i really don't want to be the person that came into a thread about rape and started screaming at people. :v

ask moderation about reading serious moderation candidates TGs without telling them about it until afterwards and/or apparently refusing to confirm/deny the exact timeline of TG reading ~~~ i hope you never sent any of the recent mods or the ones that got really close anything personal!

signature edit: confirmation has been received. they will explicitly do it before and without asking. they can look at TGs basically whenever they want so please keep this in mind when nominating people for moderator or TGing good posters/anyone!

Understanding what someone thinks and feels and why they think and feel it is a necessary component if we want to try and stop it happening in the future.

I think they're selfish, insecure asses who get off on hurting others. or sociopaths who just don't care who they hurt as long as they enjoy it. How do you fix that? I mean hey, people have been understanding bullies and trying to educate about it but you can't really stop sociopaths from being sociopaths.

Studies have shown that you can off-set sociopaths' "desires" with bad games and good parents.

That is probably the most arrogant thing I've heard in a long time.

I wasn't agreeing with the studies. My point is that you can state that studies show (thing) for basically anything, but you need a source. In Aggression and Violent Behavior, written by Andrea L. Glenn, Robert Kurzban and Adrian Raine, it is shown that Anti-Social Personality Disorders, including Psychopathy and Sociopathy, the heritability factor is about 50%

But that's not really it. Sociopaths aren't necessarily rapists, so the mere fact of being sociopathic doesn't make one a rapist.
