What a terrible analogy. Cannibalism can be, arguably, justified. Starving people will do things to survive. I don't really care what happens to my body after I die and don't hold dead bodies to be especially sacred. I can consent to being eaten after I die.

There's no argument, no circumstances, no valid logic that can say rape is ok.

The fuck are you on about? Reproduction is what drives each and every organism on this planet. Of course rape can be rationalised, just like every other human/animal behaviour.

By your own logic, that justifies canabalism if you're dead, you're justifying the rape of your corpse.

Necrophilia is one of those taboos where the point is protection of the people still living, not the dead person.

This is one of those replies that misses the forest for the trees.

Except not really cause men love to argue about semantics and technicallities. So the metaphor should be man proof as well as accurate.

This comment is a sweeping generalization, and still qualifies as sexist. Being deliberately misandristic isn’t going to help anyone.

it certainly helps bring awareness to the fact that men are literally trained from birth to provide responses such as these to downplay women's experiences.

believe it or not, many men are not aware of this, and think they are being clever or playing devils advocate, when in reality, it aims to invalidate entire scenarios on a "technicality".

honestly if you think a proven statement like men invalidating women's experiences is sexist or is misandry you should probably take a step back and realize you're one of them.

I see your point and I am tempted to refute it but I don't have any way to do so without giving you the sensation I'm an horrible person
