Thinking about that post and reading all the comments got me thinking about the awesome people who are kind to their fellow human. The honey, who really truly believes that women are just as great as men, the friends who Took Back The Night with us, the guy that cancelled his subscription to Playboy after attending a presentation on p0rn and sexism in society - all the parents and all the people who were raised this way and who raised their children to be this way too. Thank you for helping women. Thank you for helping us feel safe. Thank you for reinforcing that that's not right. Thank you for helping to advance society.
I obviously know that rape will never stop - apparently it's just something that some mammals do, and if dolphins do it, then I find it impossible to believe that we will ever be able to eradicate it. But hopefully we can get to a point where everyone understands that leering, hitting, pushing, pinching, stalking, and shouting are not okay.
