the leader of an online men's rights group is defending the comments made by
that
the successor that he hand-picked who says that he lacks empathy for female
rape victims
this is starring all sorts of controversy
and I actually may shock you by saying that I think he's making an interesting
point here that is not an invalid point I just think he's
he's rapping in a lot of other BS into it let's look at the video let's listen
to the audio first
we have people Academy nations like Mary Klaus
University of Arizona professor this one works heavenly
well relations in relation to use the CBC's since
Disease Control a whole work is maybe the engine the FBI
who has worked actively all making sure that male
white victims don't exist in the eyes of us that they don't exist
wisely law enforcement researchers
well I don't find it particularly hard
all firm and say I'm not make it a game about Email rate
victims anymore they have Charles up money
up along horsemen's up special programs funded by government
up social club just means well
schools have shaped like the Knights rawlins well
everything you can possibly think I'll okay so
let's let's break this down piece by piece Louis its actually true
that we do have a culture in the US
where men are less likely to report
being the victims raped her sexual abuse
however I completely disagree
that it has to do with feminist I completely disagree
that feminists have conspired to make it so that men don't
report rape I think it is completely a cultural thing
I don't know that feminists have anything to do with it I I don't think
that they're a factor at all but that part actually
is a very important point Louis yep definitely I think it has
you're right more to do with the masculinity and
and our social culture he also goes further in the video talking about how
men aren't there to defend women from being raped
and this is where I think he goes overboard number one
just because men are not reporting being raped
because I've socio cultural reasons does not mean
that men should not care about women being raped
I don't at all see the connection it doesn't seem to follow logically in any
way we were to break this down
in a kinda argument format where we say what are the assumptions where the
premises what's the conclusion
it doesn't follow logically at all so this is where I have a huge problem with
way saying
a lot of people I think unfortunately
are missing the the accurate message
which is that we have a problem with men not reporting rape
because number one he's giving the complete wrong reason for why it's
happening
and number two he's also saying he did basically doesn't give a crap about
women being raped so so that's right think
it it's a problematic message but there's an element of truth to what he
saying
he's not analyzing anything that's close to a real way
right it sees he's taking out of context little
and I think a lot of what he says is false but there is that framework eg
bed exists for for women and I think a lot of the people in the head
those organizations then at the forefront a bat
about framework are the ones who really can help
and make a difference when it comes to this issue who can increase awareness
about yeah I'm about men being raped as well jabs
so you're saying it the feminist groups or the group like this guy's group
not out the feminist group oh yeah actually that's a good point at which is
feminist could be in a great while they're not at all part of the problem
they could be positioned and again what what is even a feminist group it's kinda
I'm using the term because I'm accepting it as a term that society has created
I don't know that I completely agree with so-called feminist groups but in
any case
but those who some describe as feminist groups could be in a good position
to actually talk more about the issue of men not jus choosing not to report
rape
