I think that the whole "Anti-Rape" culture and idea, needs to grow the fuck up.

If a HUMAN BEING is raped by another against their will, it's a horrible thing, it's a crime. there's no doubting that.

But people need to grow up about it, I've known multiple Friends who've been raped, I feel bad for them but I leave it at that because they act like they've at least moved on from it. I've had an ex that was raped while we were dating, it was horrible to hear, but for me what was worse is that they just gave in to it. they gave up, when I knew them as a strong independent person.

Each time I've been told this by those friends I always thought in the back of my mind, "Did you even fight back? Did you just give up instantly?"

A while back there was this small browser text game based off a true story where you "play" as a girl who meets a guy, over time they kinda get closer and at the end he rapes her. Now you have choices through the whole game and choices like "Scream out, Fight back" when she was being raped, and if you chose them, it would just come back with "You can't, you give up" and this pissed me off so much.

Anti rape has become an Anti men, thing. Women are told to believe that any man out there can and will rape them. This is just fucking sexist in multiple ways. Ones obvious, it's anti men, and the other is singling out men out there who've been raped themselves.

Anti-Rape should be about self defense and being aware but not scared, it should not tell you that you need to fear the opposite sex, just that you should be ready if you are assaulted.

Being a victim of rape should not mean that your worthless as a human, I've read that so many victims just give up on life after being assaulted, some act like just because they've been raped they need to be treated special. I understand it's a horrible mentally and physically destroying crime, but people need to work on moving on in life and away from the crime.

Now I do realized that a lot of victims out there are drugged before they're raped and thus are physically vulnerable and unable to move or think properly. This IS horrible.

I'm personally just so sick of rape being treated like it's the worst crime of them all, that it needs to be treated special. Yes it's horrible, yes it's fucking awful. But so is having your SO murdered, and your parents murdered, or having your house robbed and losing everything.
