Speaking as an admittedly weak willed woman who can be mousier than Adrian on her first date with Rocky, I like to think that if I were cornered by a perv that I would 'say NO, call the dude a creepy pervert, maybe even slap him in the face if I feel it necessary, and walk away'. But it's easy for me to think that when I've never been in that kind of situation, because the truth is I'm a total beta bitch irl despite how I may present myself on this forum. No, nobody would be holding a gun to my head (hopefully...). But I have to imagine that feeling completely powerless and in the heat of the moment, it's not unusual for someone to completely freeze up and wonder if what's happening right then really is, etc.

Unfortunately several of us have made that exact point to him but he won’t budge from his gross stance

That's exactly right - fight, flight, or freeze, we can't control or predict what we will do when faced with such a situation. To victim blame and speak to what women "should" do when being assaulted is beyond ignorant, it's violent.

No one gets off the hook for being too weak willed to refrain from taking action. "Sorry officer I just couldn't stop myself from *your crime here*"..
Sounds like double standards more than victim blaming. |

Double standard for what? Are people too weak willed to rape but still go on to rape anyways?
