Woman forces man to have sex with her at knife point, stabs him when he refuses - article does not mentionthe word "rape".

What a lovely third post. The first being on a pubic hair thread last week. The second on the thread about a woman with a DP who hates fat women.

Oh, this will be good. Name me one time I have. Just one.

Funny that, NCG, seeing as you're one of those people I remember for spouting rape myths in the past....

I believe him.

Not in England, or Romania where the story is from.

HTH.

Oh yeah because this kind of shit happens all the time

"BTW, women can't rape men. HTH."

In several countries it is possible for women to rape men. HTH

Made up story

It's been a while since we've had the "wimminz do it tooooo" argument on here.

It hasn't been missed.

BTW, women can't rape men. HTH.

I believe in Romania the legal definition of rape is such that only women can be raped, so an even more narrow definition.

Not commenting on this case in particular because, let's face it, the Daily Mail have lifted a story off a Romanian website so who knows what the actual facts are - but in general, yes, it is bad that the public and media response to sexual assault on men is often to find the whole thing faintly amusing. It's a reflection of the deepy-ingrained myth that all men are up for sex with any woman at any time, which damages both women (who are held to be "asking for it" if they dress revealingly around a man because he's so easily arpused) and men (who are assumed not to be harmed by nonconsensual sexual contact).

May I ask why you decided to post this thread on this particular board? Do you think it's particularly relevant to feminism or women's rights?

A. It was in Romania so have no clue what the laws surrounding this would be.

B. The police are still investigating so you will have to wait to see how the Romanian authorities catagorize this offence.

Isn't the legal definition of rape when a penis is forced into a vagina or other orifice by the assailant? Therefore, it is sexual assault rather than rape. And she doesn't look like Angelina at all. That is just shoddy journalism.

She does not have a penis so cannot rape. She can sexually assault.

I, too, cannot click on daily hate links

In this country a woman cannot commit rape because rape is specifically the insertion of a penis into another person. As women don't have a penis they can't commit rape.

Not sure on the situation in other countries and as the link is to the Daily Mail, the mere thought of which brings me out in a horrible itchy rash, I won't be reading further to find out.
