    So if I am being an asshole, I should make the “logical” jump that all single women are whores and sluts because majority of prostitutes are women.

    Not all men and not all women. Generalising is never good.

      Yes you are being an asshole thanks for noticing. Also wtf are you on about - no where does it say “ALL SINGLE MEN ARE RAPIST.”

      You saw yourself in this comic and got defensive - that “whores and sluts” line came naturally to you.

        This is the same reaction that I had when I saw the post that says “men are rapists”. I got offended.

        Lmao, so it’s only an asshole move when men do it. Gotcha. If I’m an asshole no matter what, then you’re a fucking cunt who probably had or would have had her gross face pasted on the Tea app leak.

          Ah there you are - this was never about defending men, this was about hating women. Also I’m a man lol

              Jeez dude you just don’t get it. There isn’t anything wrong with defending men but this comic doesn’t hate men. You thinking it does is part of the problem. This comic isn’t saying that all single men are rapists - hell we don’t even know if the single man they are showing is a rapist. What we, and women, do know is that men commit almost all SA. It’s a fact. The comic is playing into the fact that they market sex at men by saying “look strange women” and men fuck with it. Saying “look strange men” to women doesn’t typically illicit the same response.

              The fact that you are so upset kinda makes me think you might be represented by this comic.

                Are you trying to say I am a rapist? I am not sure

                  I’m trying to point out that if you aren’t a rapist, this comic shouldn’t offend you. It doesn’t criticize men - if it said single men are rapists, then I would be upset too and I’m not single. But it doesn’t. Instead it recognizes that women have good reasons to be scared of men, especially strangers, and so long as you’re not one of those reasons, this has nothing to do with you.
