a woman NEVER asks for rape! if a girl dresses like that maybe is because she wants attention not to be sexually assaulted

[lww5000]

Some people attempt to justify rape by the actions or behavior of the woman. If you came across a women one night, lying passed out drunk on a deserted street, naked, with her legs spread, would you rape her? The answer is NO, unless you were a monster, and I think most people would attempt to help her. What circumstance can rape ever be justified or defended?

@Hrko1992 You're disgusting. So if a girl dresses in a short skirt or a short dress she deserves to get raped does she? No-one deserves to be forced against their will, for dressing how they feel comfortable. Even despicable people you. You're a low life human being who needs a taste of your own medicine. Then perhaps you can say to yourself... should have acted like a proper human being..... Babe.

@Hrko1992 Just admit that your point is a stupid one. "Normally dressed" women get raped every day. Ever heard of joggers in Central Park?

Did Jodie's character have a black eye? because apparently Whitney (Houston) punched her, therefore, they had to write the black-eye into the movie.

This movie is so suspence, im glad those sickos were guilty, i hated the one with the gay ass black hair telling her a bunch of shit, hes just mad cause he can't eve get a girl like jodie foster! -.-

@Hrko1992 I was raped when I was 100% sober and wearing jeans and a sweatshirt. Tell what I did wrong then, in your eyes. And when your wife or daughter or girlfriend is raped, when she's in the hospital getting a rape kit done on her, just pat her on the shoulder and tell her to wear baggier clothes next time. Asshole.

@kargirl My point was, if you're gonna dress like a skanky whore, act like a whore, dance like a whore, you will be treated like a piece of meat. But if you will dress nice, like a lady, act like a lady, and dance like a lady, then you will be treated as a goddess. It's as simple as that. Crazy women get crazy attention. Normal women get normal attention. Simple as that, babe ;)

@Hrko1992 well yeah, i mean, I'm not going to argue with some ignorant ghetto that has nothing to base his opinions on. so, just leave it like that...

@linavibe07 Oh, don't tease me!

[Hrko1992]

@morikahjo Every man wishes to be raped by a woman.

[Hrko1992]

@kargirl Look at her. Admit it. She wanted it. She was asking for it. She loved it!
