Context does matter and the context of this discussion is about victims of sexual violence being culpable due to the clothing that they wear. You can ...

No, you didn't, BC did in the quote you had displayed before stating that his response has a much more nuanced explanation of what you were attempting...
November 26, 2017 at 07:11
There is no nuanced explanation there. What is "positive methods" exactly? Are you saying that when someone here writes a sexist comment, I should qui...
November 26, 2017 at 06:47
Have you ever had an experience where what you are attempting to convey has been misunderstood, perhaps further still have not been able to adequately...
November 26, 2017 at 06:38
Can you explain what "sexually provocative dressing" is, as I hardly think women who wear a dress to a party is potentially at risk of being raped any...
November 26, 2017 at 05:34
The impediment is the assumption that victims who wear revealing clothing (which I have yet to actually see anyone explain what this may mean - what i...
November 26, 2017 at 05:31
What you may say about shaming may be all well and good, but are you suggesting that somehow they are justified in their fallacious, hasty generalisat...

I see no point in Lone Wolf' view other than some personal statement about how a person should dress. Care to elucidate?
November 26, 2017 at 04:27
What IS your claim?
November 26, 2017 at 04:25
(Y) They only consider an 'ideal victim' as worthy of sympathy.
November 26, 2017 at 04:21
Precisely. Up to 50% of sexual assaults occur against girls below the age of 16, women and girls are 80 percent of the estimated 800,000 people traffi...

What is dressing immodestly mean to you?
November 26, 2017 at 04:15
It was an informal fallacy that had no equal or comparable value that any judge would find laughable.

It is also an informal fallacy that purports to have equal or comparable value. I thought you better than this.
November 26, 2017 at 03:43
It is my position that everyone should follow the guidelines. Baden nor any other moderator thinks that they "have to protect the poor little women fr...
November 26, 2017 at 03:38
Where does he say this?
November 26, 2017 at 03:27
Are you joking?
November 26, 2017 at 03:19
How?
November 26, 2017 at 03:11
If you can articulate how to best respond to the following remarks, despite the fact that most victims of sexual assault know the perpetrator whereby ...
November 26, 2017 at 00:46
This whole thing doesn't merit a response but I am still intrigued why you think we are suddenly responsible? Why are you communicating this to us thr...
November 25, 2017 at 08:59
Are you not contradicting yourself by using a moralistic attitude to purport that we must attempt to argue the way in which you feel is right? To add ...
November 25, 2017 at 08:12
Why are we wasting our time here when we can meet for a coffee? I'll wear my sexually provocative dress with the sole intent of eliciting your arousal...
November 25, 2017 at 07:46
There is no conflict except for the one that you have created because if you restrict autonomy then it is no longer autonomy and so you are in fact op...
November 25, 2017 at 07:39
Racists often make bigoted claims before pretending that they have friends from the said-community to somehow pardon their racism. To say many of them...
November 25, 2017 at 05:07
You clearly did not understand the point and I find it ridiculous that you even mentioned so-called 'classes' here; my point was that there is a perso...
November 25, 2017 at 04:57
No, it is predicated on the fact that you wear a band around your wrist and flick it each time you see an attractive woman. I am unsure as to how you ...
November 25, 2017 at 04:36
We have the cognitive capacity for conscious reflection and a healthy psychology system involves mitigating a balanced relationship between moral cons...
November 25, 2017 at 01:18
Or, you could explain yourself considering that I am apparently unaware of why you decided to "demonstrate" the fact that some women dress in a sexual...
November 25, 2017 at 00:29
Yes. It was. Why did you even say that? To what purpose was that statement even made? In the event that you see those women who dress in a sexually pr...
November 24, 2017 at 21:31
Yes, It was. I see no demonstration of this "fact" - demonstrate for me, please. Just a note, your opinion on the matter is not a demonstrable fact. T...
November 24, 2017 at 21:15
Indeed, that was the intent, reciprocal for your very foul remarks that women are to blame for pretending to ignorance that they behave and dress in a...

Never! Love is your master, for he masters you; And he that is so yoked by a fool, Methinks, should not be chronicled for wise.
November 24, 2017 at 07:00
It can work in the opposite direction of this hierarchy too. I was recently employed by this really large NGO and I got promoted only six months into ...
November 24, 2017 at 04:03
Are you hungry or something? For heavens sake go and eat. I prefer you all wisdom-ish and that appears to only occur those sporadic moments when you h...
November 23, 2017 at 07:59
It's actually scary :(
November 22, 2017 at 07:53
I'll take a provocative photo of my elbow if you take one of the back of your knee because we like to frolic around sexualising our bodies - rule 34 r...
November 22, 2017 at 07:22
In what part of my response was there any implication that I believed you were attacking me? Or, was that just a false dilemma? Why else would people ...
November 20, 2017 at 23:12
If Agustino said that "all black people are manipulative" I wonder what your reaction would have been. Indeed, sexism is entrenched.
November 20, 2017 at 22:40
I think we are in agreement but somehow are lost in the ambiguity of the definition. What do you think of this: "Social conceptions and groupings of r...
November 20, 2017 at 19:18
Nudity as a form of protest is an expression characterised in a highly sexualised format for a reason as it is aesthetically intended to highlight opp...
November 20, 2017 at 19:07
We are on a philosophy forum. How ridiculous are you with your moral superiority and delusions of grandeur and how ridiculous that you should think be...
November 20, 2017 at 18:49
Do you seriously think this is philosophy: "Savage" can be represented in many ways and it is you that is savage. You say that I think the world revol...
November 20, 2017 at 17:08
I clearly missed this, one of the perks of using my phone most of the time. In the Newtonian sense, indeed net force is conceptual, but we are speakin...
November 20, 2017 at 09:53
A degree of self-control pretty is difficult with you, but I guess I should have remembered that you were unfortunately born without a personality. My...
November 20, 2017 at 09:26
:( Mommy? What the fandangle? You see, from your previous conversations on here particularly with streetlightX, you found a way to adapt and pretend t...
November 19, 2017 at 19:44
So, causally, this is the root of my problems. I am too selective. I assumed that you were meant to first get to know a person in order to understand ...
November 19, 2017 at 19:24
Indeed, the ambiguity of the term "race" is clearly confusing you and you seem caught in the historical use of the term based on phenotypic classifica...
November 19, 2017 at 04:41
So, are you saying that someone with more melanin is superior to you because you have to wear sunscreen? What?
November 19, 2017 at 02:52
No, the problem is the social construct, the idea that "white" means something when it is solely environmental factors where DNA has adapted to the ph...
