"Slutty underdressed girls 'are asking for it'" <- DISCUSS

Discuss. [spoiler]Lets be real here. If I left my 2014 mercedes unlocked with the keys inside unattended in Compton, California, I should expect the very likely possibility that it will get stolen. I'm not condoning stealing if I say this car is going to be stolen. I'm not 'asking for it' to be stolen, but the result of me being negligent and leaving it unlocked will be one and the same. Obviously everyone (or almost everyone) knows females don't want to be -blam!-. Almost every guy would hope she doesn't get -blam!-, too. What they mean when they say 'asking for it' is that she should expect it. There are bad people out there, and there always will be. It's not ever the victims fault, but she sure as hell doesn't help when she isn't being careful and paints herself as a target. Every time a guy says 'she is asking for it', what he really means is 'she might as well be asking for it'. /imo[/spoiler]

  • Bad things happen, it's a fact of life. If you walk around with a bag of money in the ghetto and you get robbed you can't just sit back and say, "I wasn't asking for it. People need to not steal." Everyone knows stealing is bad, but it happens anyway. Everyone knows -blam!- is bad, but it happens anyway so women need to be mindful just like people are mindful to not walk around with a bag of money in a bad neighborhood. It's always the aggressors fault, but doing certain things or dressing a certain way makes you a better target. Common sense, folks.

      • Apparently, some people in China seem to think so. [url=http://tinyurl.com/mc3c57j]On Tuesday, Yi Yanyou, a well-known law professor at Tsinghua University, suggested that the defense might have a point. “-blam!- a chaste woman is more harmful than -blam!- a bar girl, a dancing girl, a sanpeinu or a prostitute,” he wrote on his account on the Sina Weibo microblogging service, in a post dated Tuesday. [/url] Apparently, it is also "less bad" if the person accused of the crime is "the famous son of a famous Chinese general". GG China /sarcasm

      • Your opinion is so far from being right that calling it "wrong" would be regarded as highly offensive by people who are legitimately wrong, and would be considered as slander by many courts.

      • I guess the logic is sound when also applied when you're going to jail you deserve prison -blam!-.

              I believe that there is a fine line between them asking for it and the other person taking advantage of it. What someone wears is their own business, slutty or not. If someone tries to "get it" with that person, they are taking advantage of the portrayed look. I don't think I could entirely blame them though.. God, it's a fine line.
