      I remember I was reading about how attitudes toward sexual assault have changed and was shocked to see this NYT article from when I was in HS -- 1998 or so -- talking about a "record-breaking number of rapes" at the last Lollapalooza in this casual tonehttps://twitter.com/Karnythia/status/1371619103060922370?s=20 …

      A weirdly specific & fuckex up Gen X memory? There was a time in the 90's where girls carried razor blades in their mouths & people said it was about gangs, but every girl I knew did it because getting attacked in bathrooms or on train platforms was common.

      I mean, yes, the article painted it as a bad thing but it was written in a way no one would today -- "This is what you get for going out to a big rock show for druggies" The expert they quoted was literally saying the victim-blaming narrative everyone reacts against today

      The one big word of advice they wanted to pass on -- from someone quoted as a "feminist" and "worker at a rape crisis center" -- was "Those cute little short dresses that are in style now? Really bad idea for a mosh pit, to boys they scream 'easy access'"

      Can you imagine? Saying that *at all* in such an article today -- much less making it "The biggest piece of advice I can give young women" -- would absolutely and deservedly get you "canceled" today But when I was a teen this was mainstream feminism

      And I'm not saying "nobody knew better" -- the message "This kind of advice is just victim-blaming" WAS OUT THERE in the '90s It was just considered "controversial" by mainstream outlets, associated with "radical" feminism, and so never went anywhere

          Shit, people in the '90s thought they were living in an era of "PC gone mad", they thought that feminists were "taking over the country" because of Hillary Clinton and Kurt Cobain doing a show in drag and EMILY's List becoming a thing

          I guess that's the whole point, young people can't fully appreciate how fast we've moved in a short time, and old people either celebrate this and are aware how fragile it is or are terrified by it and feel irrational rage against it
