I was with friends at the weekend watching an episode from a popular tv series in which a woman was fighting off a rapist. It was very uncomfortable to watch so I went out to the kitchen saying 'can you imagine how scared you would be if you was getting raped'.
One of the blokes then piped up and had the following to say (its not word for word but its a good as I recall)
Bloke - oh I just wouldn't be raped.
Me- what?
Bloke - I just wouldn't get raped.
Me- well what if they're stronger then you?
Bloke- No sorry I just don't see how a woman can get raped if she really didnt want to. I dont see how a man can hold her down, get her trousers off and do all that if she was trying to get away.
Me-(very shocked) Are you for real? Im sure I can arrange for you to ask a rape victim, theres millions of them...
He quickly turned down my offer and I left very soon after. AIBU to be shocked at his ignorance and want to punch him in the face repeatedly?! Needless to say, I do not want to be friends with people who hold such views!
