		<description>Well d&#039;uh. What good are women for, other than getting captured, kidnapped, raped, beaten, chained, suspended and abused?

		<description>Realitycheck,

I am not aware of those statistics.  Why don&#039;t you put them up so we can examine the source?

And the discussion has digressed greatly from a sim where rape content is part of the experience to what women and men do in real life.

		<description>Reality, you are perhaps the most repugnant individual I have ever witnessed making comments in the Herald. And that really is quite an achievement. Well done.
You manage to make no valid points whatsoever, instead blustering inanely about some fabled &#039;experience&#039; with a series of women who were apparantly asking for it anyway.. What subconscious responses are you talking about? At least give one point of clarity among the endless swamp of murky bile that you spew.
If you weren&#039;t such a poisonous, odious cretin your comments would actually be quite laughable in their staggering lack of knowledge, self awareness and the presence of any discernable point other than the bellowing of hot air.
Your inability to engage with anyone in constructive dialogue hints at mental difficulties in yourself that you project onto others. I would encourage you to seek support for that, before the terrible bitterness becomes so entrenched that you lose all traces of humanity. In seeking that support I would further advise that you steer well clear of anyone who posesses any of the &#039;skills&#039; or &#039;qualities&#039; that you allege to used in providing, erm, &#039;support&#039; for friends who have experienced abuse. For your future reference, telling someone that they should leave an abusive partner is, well, useless. They already know that and need to be able to have a safe space to explore their feelings and the barriers to leaving. Hinting - or in your case most probably stating - that it&#039;s their fault anyway so hell roast them also rarely helps matters. Neither does general assholery.
Finally, isn&#039;t it about time that the Herald published something of some substance and from an alternative point of view that does not glorify and sexualise violence against women?
Actually, another point. Jessica, why do you think it might be that women don&#039;t want to prosecute? And are you aware of the statistics around what can often happen to women when they leave violent partners?

		<description>Scylla: Knock off the bullshit, ok?

I don&#039;t believe a word you have typed, period.

Not even concerning your real life - not one part of it.

The fact that your most recent response contains text that I did not type - &quot;And kicked? And punched?&quot; - shows more than anything else, just how disturbed you really are.

I said you need to be slapped in the face and taken to a shrink so that someone can actually do something about this obsessive behavior of yours.

Hmm, a &quot;slap in the face&quot; can also be verbal - such as my responses so far.

I will leave you with this Scylla: Whatever you really are, don&#039;t bother responding at all until you are capable of responding to what is actually written - not what your mind imagines to be written.

transwoman, come back when you have some newer trolling material.

Corona: Just stop responding.

There is no such thing as objective debate when those who respond - like you and Scylla - cannot do so without implying thoughts and ideas which are not expressly written.

Don&#039;t like the response given? Stick to what has been written.

All you seem to be able to do is come up with your own little ideas to place them on other people.

Until you are capable of responding to what is written and not what you imagine to be written ... you don&#039;t need to be responding at all.

		<description>actually read what is being posted: I am placing the &#039;blame&#039; on those who CAUSED the subconscious responses in the first place.


all you have actually said is [the rest of your comments were personal attacks againts others]

Here&#039;s the cold, hard fact: There ARE women out there who, for whatever reason, seek out abusive men.

ok lets take that as given, an unknown percentage of women enjoy being abused/raped by abusive men
so ok  ignore them as being happily satisfied
what of the rest of the women those who dont enjoy it ?

the same could be said of pedophilia
there are children under 16 out there who enjoy sex
however society still rightly condemns the abuser because the vast majority dont
when men who abuse women in a relationship are treated like peadophiles are - then abuse will end

seeking to lay blame on the abuser or on the victim will only perpetuate the cycle
it is not blame that should be sought but practical social solutions


one more unneeded comment :

reality says
The rare few that take my advice and leave their abusive boyfriends

if only it were so easy in all cases

maybe you should make an audio tape of your advice so it can be given out to all women, and if they dont heed what you tell them - then they are just mentally ill of course

sadly for most women the advice to &#039;just leave him&#039; doesnt work in a lot of cases
because the men often refuse to accept that she has chosen to end the relationship and follow/ stalk the woman
in some case there are children
in others there are other factors which prevent her leaving

you are very good at dishing out advice to others reality
not so hot at applying your own advice to yourself

		<description>and do yourself a favour reality:

learn the diffrence between reasoned objective debate and subjective personal attacks

vilifying other people does not make your arguement look better - if anything it only make you look like a ranting child

		<description>Reality {sic] says

&#039;All of the blame is NOT the abuser&#039;s&#039;

so what you are basically claiming is that if a man beats up a woman he lives with, it is sometimes her fault that he cant control his temper

		<description>Ah. I need to be &quot;slapped in the face,&quot; Reality?

And kicked? And punched? Will I have learned my lesson then?

I really don&#039;t think I need to respond further to your violent and crude rants. I think you&#039;ve just said it all far more vividly and succinctly than I could have.

		<description>Again corona - Your input is not welcome, nor is it needed.

&quot;Resources?&quot;

Once again: I&#039;m not looking for words on a screen. Nor am I looking for a pile of horse shit.

Do yourself a favor corona: Cease responding.

Scylla is being treated exactly as &quot;she&quot; (at this point I am not about to believe anything that is typed by that user name) should be: An obsessive little nit that needs to be slapped in the face and taken to a shrink.

Scylla, do yourself a favor and actually read what is being posted: I am placing the &#039;blame&#039; on those who CAUSED the subconscious responses in the first place.

Your responses are quite typical of those who are so wrapped up in their own little world that they miss what is being said.

Maybe then you won&#039;t be talking out your ass AND agreeing with someone like corona, who has proven to me time and again that she is incapable of even the simplest reading comprehension.

Do those who abuse REAL women need a change in viewpoint? Yep: At the end of a gun, aimed at where their balls should be.

All of the blame is NOT the abuser&#039;s however and THAT is the god damned point I&#039;ve been trying to get across - Along with the quite undeniable fact that stimuli like Second Life and any video game that contains any form of violence whatsoever .... only have a real effect in terms of altering behavior within those who are ALREADY exhibiting said behavior or that are seriously disturbed.
