rape is rape right?
well what about when its the guy whos tied down, gagged and being rode.
yeah thats rape too.
and theres several scenes of it in the wedding crashers.
vinve vaughs character gets assualted and raped by his one night fling. and then her brother attempts the same thing. and when vince vuaghs complains about it, it turns into a joke.
and people sit in the theatre and laugh. and find this funny. rape becomes the punchline, and no one thinks once about how horrifying rape actually is.
rape is not funny. its not a funny issue. it will never be a funny issue.
rape is horrible and traumitizing, and it leaves scars behind.
but people think this is funny, cause its a guy being held down. if it were a chick, there would be letters written, and an up roar raised. but its a guy, so most people laugh.
what about the guys who've been raped. the ones who go to the theatre to see a funny movie, and get their experiences waved in their faces, and get to see people laughing at the idea. And if they ever mention it, jokes would be made. there would be no sympathy.
its not a funny issue. its a nightmare.
