If you look up the pics of people doing the #jadapose.

There are women and men that are doing the trolling and aiming to spice up their twitter feeds.

Those kids are obsessed with being popular through social media but any means necessary.

I assumed this would be true (females taking these awful pics) but Google image search (which continues to become less and less useful) wasn't turning up any. I don't do Twitter so I didn't find them there either.

Because a) it's some sort of way of fitting into societies image or standards to gain worth or b) some need to understand societies judgments or actions and what it means about yourself.

It has nothing to do with you being a male and everything to do with making choices, ultimately.

I'm sorry but biological reasons of what rape accomplishes being inbred in males... No. Reject the ****ing characterizations and maybe there will be a change. Think for yourself and maybe there will be a change. Get rid of the illusions of what you're entitled to because of cultural, social standards and maybe there will be a change. We are capable of this and that is what we need to use.

Absoutely correct. I don't blame men as a whole. I focus on the individual who is doing the rape/assault, regardless of sex. The problem is not men, but the response and attitude towards rape victims.

It goes along with the idea that humans are not meant to be monogamous.

Do we fight against these biological conditions to be what is morally right? Is this because we are highly intelligent beings?

What a load of crap. Its this sort of bull**** that turns gender studies students into feminazis.

Rape was never vital to nor the reason for the survival of mankind because:
1. Most women are sexually attracted to men.
2. For many, if not most men, committing rape is extremely difficult (if not impossible) due to an overwhelming preference for not just consent from a woman, but also her enjoyment of the activity.

As for animals, although rape as been known to occur in some species (such as dolphins), in most cases it appears to be consensual. Compared to humans, most species have less sexual dimorphism in terms of physical strength disparities. Mutual cooperation is necessary. For some species, the males must show off in order to impress the females e.g. building a good nest, providing food, appearance etc.

Dirty?

Dirty! Is that you?
