They are most certainly becoming victims when people start saying that 1 in 3 men are rapists!
Which kind of explains why some of us are a bit ruffled about this video.
I don't look at women sexually, and I tell other men to do the same thing. If I see bad behavior, I'm probably going to step in and protect someone. What more do you want out of me?

They Exist. They are indeed rarer. The woman I linked to there was anything but a charmer, she did it at gunpoint, but from what I understand (and it could be wrong) they tend towards statutory rape, forming unhealthy emotional ties with young boys.
I'm not debating that most rapes occur when a man assaults a woman, that would be well, dumb, what I'm stating here is this man is not genuine in his words, and he throws genuine men under the bus.
Heck, as far as the stats on violent crime go, men tip the scales so far it's kind of embarassing.
And about your statement that 1 in 3 men are rapists? Are you going to let that just hang out there, or are you going to retract it?

There are a few things which come to mind after seeing this video:
I don't even know where to begin but here goes-Kudos to this man for taking the stand against rape and rape culture. I sincerely do applaud him for this. I mean this video is.. informative but key points are left out, it leads us to think that women are the victims and we are not. Women should get up and fight stop expecting a man to always be there to protect you. Learn self defense, get pepper spray, do something, do anything so that should in case a situation like this arise you can protect yourself. A man is not always going to be there to protect you.
I'm not saying that this is the case for every woman so don't get me wrong I am just saying that it would be best if a woman learnt to protect herself. Depend on no one, at the end of the day the only human you have to be there for you is yourself.

I was going off the inference in the video. The statistics on rape, assault, and abuse vary because of the lack of reporting, some false reports, and reports that are unprovable. It's a possible figure, but not a definitive one. Going off of the number of women I know who have survived rape and sexual abuse, I wouldn't completely discount it.
Honestly, whether or not that was the most accurate statistic has little bearing on the point that we rape is not just an issue that women have to try to prevent. It was only asking that men participate as well, and we have discussed ad nauseum what that means. That's all.

OK, here's what the video says in a nutshell. I'm just listing the facts that are claimed in the video here...
Claim #1) One out of every three men are potential rapists
Claim #2) Men are pigs
Claim #3) Men need to wake up and stop thinking/acting like pigs
I don't know where that guy gets his facts from, but in my book those register a big ol' 10 on my BS meter, unless he is specifically addressing places in the world where women are treated like slaves (but something tells me he is speaking more generally).
..and those three claims are the reason why the men here, REAL men, CHRISTIAN men, men who RESPECT WOMEN have a problem with this video.

Other than saying "talk to our friends about it", I've heard NOTHING from you to steer us men in ANY direction to help. MY FRIENDS don't need to hear it! Other than "blond jokes" & "women drivers", I've never heard any of them make derogatory remarks about them! Besides that, a real rapist doesn't listen to anybody! They're psychologically messed up! If you don't believe me, check on the stats of how many rapists come out of prison only to rape again! Sheesh!
Some guy (or college indoctrination), has really done a number on this woman. Almost every thread I click on with her posting, she bashes, degrades, accuses, or puts down men in some fashion.
Heck I could probably find a hundred articles or videos that say women are the bane of humanity. Of course, however, we should all know by now in our lives that there are some men AND women that act horribly, and some that act Godly.

Have any of you noticed how many threads are devoted to the degradation of women here? The objectification of the modesty threads, the belittling of the submission threads, etc.? Again, I am not anti-male, and this thread was not anti-male. It was asking men to treat women with respect, if they are not already doing so.
All people should be treated with respect, women included.
