      At lot more than some. 62 million people (edit: visited a porn website, and the video in question has 20.000 views) and I assume it would be safe to say, mainly men

        It’s a miracle women still have relationships with any man. As a girl Dad, I almost would prefer her to be lesbian instead of ever dating a guy

        Not trying to defend the website or the people who access it but the article says they are a porn website that host “any legal porn content” so I assume the 62 million number is a site wide number not the specific niche

          Looks like you’re right, seems like the most viewed video in the category has 20.000 views according to the article

            it’s “20,000 videos” with hundreds oh thousands of views. The one example they give of views has 50k

        Gotta be some repeat visitors though. Surely one can’t pick up raping after the first lesson?

      Some people are born psychopaths. They look like normal people but they’re not. They don’t feel remorse or guilt for anything they do. They see other people as resources to exploit. They cannot be taught not to think this way because their brains lack the capacity to feel the wrongness of their actions.

    Is there a vigilante academy that teaches people how to investigate and expose rapists so their lives are the ones getting destroyed? Because I can get behind that.

          Step three (the first step involving gaining skills) is pretty brutal. Then step 4 is just an extension of step 1 but requires even more luck when already only 0.1% manage step 1. Step 5 and beyond aren’t very fun either.

          In fact I think the only real fun part, other than the general satisfaction from a job well done, involves a cat suit, and even that is a pretty mixed bag. Stock up on disinfectant and bandaids.

              What I was thinking:

              1. Be born to a wealthy family.
              2. Parents shot in front of you.
              3. Take off and get trained by ninjas.
              4. Return to a company still running well and not stolen from you while you were gone that also has an advanced military prototyping division.
              5. Practice with these new weapons/tools until you can competently use them in uneven battles against people trying to kill you while you do your best to avoid killing them.
              6. Now go out and fight those battles while keeping your identity secret because no matter how good you get at being Batman, you’re still vulnerable to any situation where your opponents have planned more than you have (eg every ambush and surprise attack).

      Oh man I’d love that. My ex drugged and raped me but all evidence is circumstantial so I can’t ruin his life legally.

        Same thing happens to people all the time. They’ll send a report and take in evidence that they don’t let go of. The problem is that the frequency has totally desensitized and saturated the justice system.

    I read this article and immediately went to thank my husband for not drugging, raping and filming me. He was like uh, you’re welcome? Figured not drugging your loved ones was one of those unwritten rules, but I guess not.

    That was one of the sickest most horrible things i have ever read. How can anyone want to do that to their wife. It doesn’t even seem to really be about the sex. I am just lost for words, truly abhorrent.

        It’s about dominance, it’s not that the sex doesn’t bring pleasure it’s that sex without dominance (i.e. sex that isn’t rape) does not bring pleasure (at least that’s always been my interpretation, I’m not a rapist so I could just be wrong).

    So at which point do we start cutting balls and refreshing necks again?

    If you think you have been drugged or spiked, seek help immediately, tell a trusted person and go to the hospital or call emergency services.

    Oh, which trusted person? Not that one. A rando on the street is more trustworthy than the person who said they’d care for you until your dying day.

      A close (female) friend probably. Or a stranger on the street, as you said. Whoever you trust.

      I see we have a fellow Jaegerist. To bad that this idea would probably end just like AOT
