RE: Are women who dress provocatively responsible for unwanted attention, or should men learn to control themselves? (Ecotrain QOTW)

in #ecotrain6 years ago

First off, thank you for sharing.

I have to respectfully disagree with you. I've covered some of this in my video: https://d.tube/v/davethepitt/58zhnjfo and while that focuses on the errors of blaming victims of sexual assault for their assault I think we have some cross over here. If you walked down the road at 4 in the morning you should, in a just world, be unconcerned about this causing you problems. Yes we don't live in that world but we should. Men (or indeed anyone) should control themselves. If we give out any other message then it's giving these people an excuse for their bad behaviour.

But thank you for sharing your thoughts. I've subscribed. Just because we disagree on this doesn't mean I dislike you or never want to hear your opinions again. Keep up the good work and hopefully we can all live in a safer world.

I wanted a debate :)

I would love for us all to live in a safer world, but unfortunately, in this case, I don't see any way of making that a reality not without taking peoples freedom away.

Its a matter of tackling the greater evil I think, if we were to 'police' this completely it would be unfeasible and when you squeeze something in one place, the bulge will appear somewhere else.
