so, the new york times covered a story in which an 11-year-old girl was gang raped (POSSIBLE TRIGGER WARNING for the link). an awful story, made even more awful by the fact that they repeated claims that she brought it on herself by the way she was dressed. repeated them. as fact. no critical

This made me sick when I saw it earlier. I wish I could sign the petition a thousand times over.

I just can't even - properly express my disgust and anger over this. It's beyond words.

...Man I can't figure out which part of me that article insults more.

The fact I'm a girl or the fact I love journalism.

Utterly disgusting attitude. She's 11 FFS, since when does the way you're dressed dictate whether people are allowed to rape you?!!!

'Those poor boys'...... how about each of them is gang-raped, then we can talk about genuine suffering.

I just read that article, and oh man did it piss me off. I really fucking hate people sometimes. :(
