At the end of the day, a lot of women have also bought into our rape culture. Drunken guys groping and trying force themselves upon women is just playful, fun banter, and the rape of an inebriated woman can be excused as "20 minutes of action" to quote Brock Turner's father.

In response to the numerous sexual misconduct allegations leveled against Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh, a Trump supporter in Montana told her young daughters that men groping women is no big deal while on MSNBC.
Groping a woman what is that at 18? The mother said, before asking her two daughters, How many guys you know think that is no big deal.
Even back then it wasnt, she added. Its not a big deal.
Kavanaugh has been accused of sexually assaulting Christine Blasey Ford when they were both high schoolers in the early 1980s, which this woman argued that if true, still doesnt take away from his character and his job to do what he needs to do as a Supreme Court nominee.

(33,643 posts)Not that groping is okay, but if one 'grope' was 'all' this accusation was, then, yeah ... you'd have a point ... a 17 year old boy one time 'groping' a similar-aged girl ... 35 years ago ... probably that alone wouldn't be THAT 'big of a deal' ...
And ya know what?
We wouldn't even be talking about it right now IF THAT WAS THE EXTENT of it.
BUT IT ISN'T. Not even CLOSE.
The fantasy-world these people live in is nothing short of breath-taking. They really think they get to just randomly fabricate their own version of reality ... buncha delusional f***s.
