    In the 1980s, “rape” meant an attack from a stranger in a dark alley, not something that acquaintances did to each other at house parties. Just look at Sixteen Candles:https://bit.ly/2N80QYc

        So now anyone who was alive in the 80s was apart of some big rape culture? This has been ridiculous for a long time now but you have managed to take it to new heights. Do you have some stats that more people were raped in the 80s than any other decade or something?

        Girls have snuck pictures of me when I was passed out with no clothes on but I’m not sweating it. I’ve also had the conversation in the car the next morning that goes something like we were both drunk it got wild we’re not a couple. I like John Hughes movies. Whatever

        A girl can do it to a guy just as easily

        Yes. This is when people had common sense. Now the definition of rape has been broadened to any guy looking at a girl.

        Kavanaugh is garbage. Toss him. His whiny privileged ass doesn't deserve to be dogcatcher, much less judge. A drunk, a thug, a little Yalie misogynist. Whomp whomp - lets end his fifteen minutes of fame and get on to a serious candidate. How about, oh, Merrick Garland.

        That wasn't a guy that formed a plan to get a chick wasted and raped. 16 candles- Anthony Michael Hall had to ask what happened..... 80's rape terminology was exactly the same as what it is today. People are just talking about it now. IT'S NOW ACCEPTABLE TO PROTECT WOMEN.

        16 candles is...a completely different film now. It has not aged well. The racist depiction of Asians.

        Well OK, if you're using Sixteen Candles as authority, it's useless to rely on the law.

        You dipshits always walk around with your heads shoved this far up each other's asses, or is it easier to shove it up your own ass?
