Good video 
If more men spoke up about it, I sincerely believe it would have greater impact. And I admire the ones who do so! Having the male voice alongside helps a lot; for some reason this issue has been attributed to women to deal with, even though it's not women the ones who perpetrate physical abuse for the most part.
PS: I'm not saying women don't perpetrate abuse, either physical or emotional, but usually is men the ones who beat their wives or rape, and not the other way around. And I want to add that I know not all men do this, and not even the majority I believe. But it does happen.

So this isn't about the 20% off diapers and wipes video?? Because that would actually make sense.
You had to know I would come after something like this.
I don't have any power over how rapists act and what they do. Stop rape? Of course I will, any time I see it. Men can stop rape? No, we can't, I can't choose for a rapist to not rape, I can make things more dangerous for them if they do rape someone, but I can't stop rape, no one can. Rape is something a depraved person does, it is not business as usual. I am not a rapist, I will not rape someone, I have never wanted to, I have never said it's alright, and the majority of men are like me in that regard. Now stop trying to put all men into the rapist box and start figuring out how to protect yourself from the depraved people who do want to rape you, because there's not always going to be someone else around to stop them. Rapists are monsters, they aren't men, women, human, they lack empathy. But don't accept that someone is a rapist until they have been proven to be so.
If I have never hurt a woman a woman in My life, then I do NOT need to hear this day in and day out. Maybe 1% of the men may be rapists or whatever. But then 1% of the women are prostitutes also... Do I then get the right to keep barraging EVERY woman in the world with the slogans of "Don't be a whore, don't be a whore" or something like that? No. Similarly I am NOT obliged to keep taking that garbage or being told that Me or every man is a potential rapist.
Rape culture? You mean the same culture that demonizes rapist, yet kicking a man in the testicles (serious sexual assault) is comedy gold? (must be the "patriarchy" then)

Yea, what he said ^^^^^
Ok, I watched the video. I expected something profound and enlightening. Instead, to me it was more like an 8th grade poetic essay on the prevalence of male rapists (as opposed to female rapists - if there even are any, that is). And if I was the teacher, I'd give it a B-, mostly for effort.
I think everyone already knows that most, if not all rapists are male and that rape is a very bad thing and that it should be stopped at all costs if/when the opportunity to stop it presents itself.
So what is this video telling me that I don't already know?... That sports teams and gamers use the word rape without thinking? That lewd jokes about sodomy are sometimes told in workplaces?? That victims of rape or family members might be offended by hearing those things?? Tell me something I don't already know and maybe I won't feel like I want my 3 minutes back.
