How can people sit there and be so judgmental?

Exactly you've got the right to dress any way you wish as an individual, if you wanna dress skimpy cool, if you wanna wear baggy/skinny jeans, awesome, if you wanna run around with a helmet with a dildo attached to it you should have the right to not be raped because of it.

See how many variables there are?? How can people sit there and be so judgmental?
I remember once being a chaperone at a school dance for my kids. A young 13 year old girl, wore a skirt so high you could see her butt cheeks quite easily, and she was wearing a thong..(at least I hope she was).. Of course every young boys eyes were on her , not to mention a few dads...and she was enjoying the attention immensely. ( I think she got sent home to change at some point)

great, you go tell that to your 13 year old daughter who wants to dress like the latest Brittany or Rhianna video , when she is heading to the mall.... where the gang bangers hang out to sell drugs.
There is never an excuse for rape, but there is no excuse for provoking unwanted sexual attention either.

Of the people I know the women are just as vocally appreciative of an attractive man as the men are to women.
She was enjoying the attention immensely, SHE'S 13!! Those MEN are teaching her ITS GOOD. How could a 13 year old possibly know any better?!?
IF THE MEN DIDNT LOOK, SHE WOULD NOT HAVE FOUND THE LOOK OF APPRAISAL IN THEIR EYES.

yes..of course you would blame it on the men.. The fact that she purposely hiked her skirt up to show her butt cheeks, has nothing to do with her intentions at all.
I'm so sick of men being blamed for the sexual provocation of women or girls, no matter the age.

It was more of a shock stare, and of course boys are boys,and to expect them not to be sexually stimulated by this, and not want to act out on it, is just beyond reason.
She knew exactly what she was doing, because it was what she set out to do, and that puts the responsibility on her as well.
edit on 23-8-2012 by WhisperingWinds because: (no reason given)
If a man walks around the mall with his shirt off because he thinks he has a hot body, he is looking to sexually stimulate someone. Puts him in the same category in my opinion. Women are wired differently than men, and to deny that fact is unfair to men

I agree, but do we not tend to discuss the matters in hushed voices to our girlfriends? Do we wolf whistle men? and tell them they look easy? Do we call them derogatory names if they knock us back? Do we presume they want sex because they are in shorts?
Okay, who knows better a 13 year old girl, or grown men? In fact don't even answer that, your quoted post satisfys my point,

Grown men know the difference, but 13 year old boys don't..so don't be putting it all on the grown men who stared out of astonishment.
I've many male friends and have 3 ex partners, they all walked around shirtless when the heat was getting unpleasant, I've honestly never known them just to do it for attention, although to some that comes as a nice bonus, IF that's what they want.

I judge each individual on merit, so I know it can work both ways, but there's is a higher percentage of these actions and words in men, no?
