Few Things Are More Hypocritical Than (SOME!!!) LIBERALS Who Blame Women For Being Victims

Outrage After Exes Post Revenge Pics

Dozens of women are fighting back after intimate photos they sent to former romantic interests have been sent by their exes to a so-called "revenge porn" website and posted online.
Holley Toups says that she was at work one day and a friend called to tell her what she'd seen online. It's the moment that Toups, a teacher's aide in Texas, says her life became a living hell.
"She said, 'I overheard some people talking about a website. Its pictures, you know, explicit photos that people have posted,' and she said, 'you're on there,'" Toups said.
Toups found semi-nude photos she said she once sent to a former boyfriend - now posted on the porn site...

And what do some liberals have to say about this?

The solution is: don't take those pictures, don't let your boyfriend take them.

Legally? If you let someone take a photo of you? It's theirs to do with as they wish. Sending a picture to someone that they then use in a manner you wouldn't wish is a different matter, but the only legal recourse there is through copyright laws (as creator of the work you have legal rights regarding distribution and reproduction; it would remain to be seen whether a court might decide that you'd waived those rights by sharing the image in the first place and whether a contingent expectation that the image not be shared was reasonable).

Oh, but that's not all.

I think these ladies doth protest too much.

 Seriously? Some LIBERALS said this?

Okay, now let me explain where this bull crap comes from. Remember how people (particularly urban folk) look at you when you leave your keys in a running car or you sleep with your front door open, and a thief comes and takes advantage of you? The same (il)logic is routinely applied by most on the Right (and, apparently, some on the Left) to women who take nude pictures of themselves and give them to their boyfriends / husbands. Eventually if you let this (il)logic fester in your brain, it will poison you to the point of blaming women's provocative dress as a cause of them getting raped. It's the same logic, taken to its inevitable conclusion. Those who subscribe to the first example of (il)logic, of course, will be pissed as HELL when they read this blog and find me pointing out the axel grease on the slope.

Let me explain the poor logic of chastising a person for having their keys in a running car when they're off elsewhere. Suppose they took their keys and locked the car? Do you realize how many seconds it takes to steal and hotwire a car? 30 seconds to 2 minutes for a skilled thief. So now that you know this, why don't you secure your car using better methods? If you don't, then you're only SLIGHTLY less foolish than the person who left the keys in the car. If, of course, you buy the "the person with the keys in the car is a fool" logic.

Now, for rape. The going blame-the-victim logic dictates that women who walk to ATMs at night or who walk around in skimpy clothes are attracting rapists. So what happens when women avoid ATMs at night and are bundled up for Antarctica and they get raped anyway? "Ah, yes, they dared to walk outside. Serves 'em right" - you'd expect to hear that from a madman, but it is the logical conclusion of the blame-the-victim logic.

Finally, we get to women whose pictures get posted online without their permission. So now the woman is responsible for protecting herself by not sending a man her naked pictures. Gotcha. The same logic says she should sleep in full Antarctica gear in an unobtanium armored bunker lest some idiot drill a hole in the wall and take pictures of her sleeping in whatever stage of undress. After all, she knows the risks, she should take appropriate precautions, right? And God forbid she ever sleep next to a boyfriend, since he might take post-sex pictures of her and post it. (Google that last one, you'll find examples, trust me.)


Nobody is saying you should leave your front door open, leave your keys in your car, or go to an ATM at night. But, like wearing skimpy clothes or sending your lover a nude picture, these are rights that you have. We should not be intimidated into giving up those rights. When you give them up in the face of intimidation the predators will simply press forward in an attempt to get to you at all costs. You avoid going to the ATM at night - so the rapists and muggers simply get more brazen and attack you in broad daylight. What have you gained? You've given up your freedom to walk at night and now you're being victimized at high noon. Happens all the time in reality.

The lesson here? You don't win by fleeing from the predator. You win by standing your ground and kicking their ever loving ass! In this case, you levy HEFTY FINES upon every one of those bastards at that revenge website - the men who sold those pictures, and the website owner. And probably the customers, too, as they knew up front that they were whacking off to women being victimized. And then you leave them liable to civil action, too. I'd say throw them in prison, but our prisons are already overcrowded. Ruinous fines and civil judgments will cull the herd of predators well enough and send a message to the wanna-be's.

Sue the bastards. Sue them into oblivion. Send a loud and clear message to other predators: 

YOU

WILL

BE

NEXT.
