backed into a corner for dismissing sex crimes, habsy goes for the hail mary moral outrage ploy.

impressive.

I never dismiss things bub. You kinda know what I'm saying is true.

For clarity...this is what he did

- Took picture of young woman while she was performing sex act on him....without her knowledge or consent
- Shared that photo with his hockey team on their group chat
- The photo (taken without knowledge or consent) did not show her face, so to ensure everyone knew who she was, shared a screen shot of her snapchat screen so she could be identified as the person in the photo
- publicly called his victim "vindictive" and accused of her of trying to ruin his career when she went public with it

I mean, that's pretty rapey.

fwiw, the women I'm close with who've been sexually assaulted would probably have no problem calling that rapey, they wouldn't be interested in playing the "this isn't as bad compared to my experience" game.

[Habsy]

Sure. Have them step up and say how rapey is great. I'll get the popcorn.

Now who's trying to justify an offensive term?

 

[Habsy]

 

[MindzEye]

Why is it hard to use another term?

A few reasons:

- My preferred term for this type of act works just fine
- "Predator" has multiple meanings. Rapey has 1. Efficiency >
- 5 letters & 2 syllables > 8 letters & 3 syllables. Again, efficiency >

 

[Habsy]

Ok moron

I think rapey is a much broader term than Habsy thinks it is. It’s not a word I use, but I’ve heard others use it to describe something that is extremely creepy but not quite criminal…

 

[MindzEye]

That's an actual slur though. For someone screeching about false equivalency a few pages ago, and hypocrites like, a page ago.... this is showing a poor grasp of both terms.

It's exactly what the dictionary definition of it says it is.

 

[Habsy]

No no.

I can guarantee you I know people that'll find rapey offensive and I've notified you of the fact. You choose to ignore it so I will ignore what others find offensive because fuck you?

 

[Habsy]

This will be a great topic for wine and cheese night. Thanks.

 

[CH1]

Yes…people will be offended by the term “rapey”… that doesn’t signify misuse by ME

Exactly. People get offended by the term cunt, but I'm not misusing it when I call Habsy a cunt.

A discussion with rich white Florida boomers on the topic would definitely be illuminating.

 

[Habsy]

Again, never claimed he misused it. Why so defensive?

I'm claiming that it's a stupid word and should be removed from any considerate person's vocabulary. Now the fact that consideration has long gone the way of the dodo I can see why people use it then get upset when you use a word that you don't find offensive.

Ultimately I blame Mailloux for my having to learn about a stupid word that I truly have never and will never use. Just lowbrow shit. Even if used correctly.

Brocolli Rape is delicious! But use olive oil.

Legitimately a tier 1 vegetable for sure

Who've done more for rape victims than all of you combined. And they're not all white you racist.

You're getting a bill for my new keyboard.
