I've been attacked, and if one of the many kicks to the head had hit the right spot, I might not be here annoying everyone. Since then, I'm very protective of people (male and female) and will go out of my way to make sure they dont take public transport alone at night.
To one of my female friends (who I pick up from work at night), that protectiveness was an example she used in a post about how women shouldnt have to be cautious. I really wanted to have my say, but I knew people would label me a piece of shit (for looking out for my friends) so I kept my mouth shut.
Well the irresponsible part was wearing headphones the whole bus ride home, not paying attention to my surroundings, etc. And it was two males and a female.
Telling men they shouldn't do something isn't going to stop the f**kin psychopaths, so do everything YOU can do to protect yourself.
Do people think rapists are going to think, "Wait, I SHOULDN'T attack women?" just because people say so?
I dunno, I think change can occur if a concerted effort is made - like the king hit / coward punch stuff. I think that has made a difference
