I would wait for mr ADES to come and explain himself/apologize

sheesh!

the only LOL this could elicit is the empty, desperate laughter of a nihilist, a black hole at the center of the universe

im guessing ade was just pulling the ol switcheroo

At least it wasn't some slut sucking off a dog. Still haven't forgiven ade lang for that.

I don't understand this ongoing idea that everything has to be categorized as either "personal responsibility" or "product of environment," as if these things are mutually exclusive. In most cases they have everything to do with one another.

i do think for a portion of rape victims there's a relationship between the uh situations they get in and previous (childhood?) traumas - one that unconciously compels them towards situations (and people) where they have a higher than normal potential of being victimised and/or reliving certain traumas. trauma survivors will usually disassociate when thrust into abusive situations, whereas women without that background will probably fight back or try to run when assaulted. lemme say point blank that this doesn't mean they're responsible or deserving of blame in any way - the onus of responsibility always falls on the aggressor. this is where the above 'personal responsibility' vs. 'product of environment' dichotomy reveals it's uselessness (the meeting point is somewhere inbetween). people are responsible for what they do, but they can't be held accountable for the events, people, places that made them the kind of person who does what they, uh, do. it's a pattern of behavior that people relive over and over, often with little cognizance of how to take control (or the power to do so), and it's a cycle that will never end as long as people exist (a patriarchal society that's crafted a culture of guilt, shame and double standards obv. doesn't help).

(NB. i don't really have statistics or science or anything to back this up, it's mostly just a pet theory of mine derived from personal experience. i obviously understand that many rape victims [maybe the majority] don't fit the description i put forth, i really dunno.)

ade's post is an interesting mix of bullshit and statements that wouldn't be out of place in mainstream social science. for example:

one that unconciously compels them towards situations (and people) where they have a higher than normal potential of being victimised and/or reliving certain traumas

^^ bullshit!

trauma survivors will usually disassociate when thrust into abusive situations, whereas women without that background will probably fight back or try to run when assaulted ... . it's a pattern of behavior that people relive over and over, often with little cognizance of how to take control (or the power to do so)

^^ completely mainstream behavioral psychology view

it's a cycle that will never end as long as people exist (a patriarchal society that's crafted a culture of guilt, shame and double standards obv. doesn't help).

^^ teen angst

he may be responsible for his post but he isn't accountable.
