    Do try. Gender differences do actually exist and criminality seems to be one area of this.https://twitter.com/cinnamonchimera/status/960251984833142785 …

    Yes- it would be playing defense. Up to this point the campaign has reinforced the idea that men are more prone to sexual criminal behavior than women- it's an attack on character. Showing that women also have the capacity for sexual crime would counteract this misconception.

        I don't have access to any supporting info right now (at work) but women most definitely have a capacity for sexual violence and domestic abuse of their partner on par with men.

        They differ that much from the other apes? Not in the stats I've seen. Closely mirrors that of chimps.

        A confound here is percieved victimhood. Women initiate sex acts quite often on sleeping or otherwise incapacitated men and seldom if ever are punished for it--in part because men seldom perceive it as violence.

        In the (false) rape case involving 3 canadian off duty cops and one female, the alleged victim openly discussed performing oral sex on one of the defendants *while he was blacked out drunk*.

        Imagine a male so glibly mentioning he digitally penetrated an unconscious female while he filed a criminal complaint against her. She wasn't charged btw--not with false accusations nor sexually assaulting the unconscious defendant Sameer Kara.http://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-40879541 …

        Humans are unique in that females initiate sex quite often. AFAIK chimps not so much. This means women do things like grope and commit sex acts without consent whereas female chimps don't. So we're left with a question about definition of sexual violence.

        Replying to @Wow_ThatsLame @HPluckrose @cinnamonchimera

        In this era of idealized equality we need to either: 1) raise male consciousness to perceive female sexual agression as violence (e.g. how women are traumatized when men grope them etc.)

        2) lower the degree to which females perceive sexual agression as violence (e.g. how men say hey no biggie)

        Assault seems more common to men. Manipulation seems to be more common with women. Now there’s a match made in heaven. 😂

        Look at gender in prisons: men become someone's bitch in some harem-gang; women develop extended families.
