  1. @Alex_Connolly Wouldn't we all. :)
  2. @cgrajko @alex_connolly @gkokoris "Frape"="Facebook rape" I always knew it as "Facejacking". The switch to the rape connotation bothered me.
  3. @cgrajko @alex_connolly @gkokoris Casual use of the word "rape" is rife, and it has always bothered me. I won't even say "frape".
  4. @cgrajko @alex_connolly @gkokoris People see "rape culture" and assume it means "everyone is a rapist".
  5. @cgrajko @alex_connolly @gkokoris I think that, right there, is what causes the problems. People don't understand that specific bit.
  6. @cgrajko @alex_connolly @gkokoris Oh, I wasn't referring to you. I was speaking more generally. :)
  7. @cgrajko @alex_connolly @gkokoris At the same time, though, I do agree with Alex about disliking the "tar everyone" approach.
  8. @cgrajko @alex_connolly @gkokoris I have refrained from any deep commentary on the subject because I KNOW I am ignorant about it.
  9. @cgrajko @alex_connolly @gkokoris A great point -- and a good analogy -- that more should consider.
  10. @GKokoris @alex_connolly @cgrajko That said, I'm not sure what else you'd call it, really.
  11. @GKokoris @alex_connolly @cgrajko it's actually that helpful a term, at least if the number of people misunderstanding is anything to go by.
  12. @GKokoris @alex_connolly @cgrajko I think part of the issue around all this is misunderstanding of the term "rape culture". I don't think
  13. @GKokoris @alex_connolly @cgrajko Exactly. I know the games that will have uncomfortable, upsetting communities, and I avoid them completely
  14. @cgrajko Looking forward to that.
  15. @GKokoris @alex_connolly @cgrajko definitely! Your voice will be welcome, particularly in our new Articles section. :) jump in any time.
  16. @Alex_Connolly @cgrajko @gkokoris Come seek refuge at the Squawkbox, all! I've made some changes and would love your input/contributions. :)
