Changes in how rape will be investigated- about time!

AWholeLottaNosy · 28/01/2015 22:05

I just read this and I was really pleased. It's about time rape was investigated and prosecuted differently considering the appalling rape conviction rate we have in this country. Imagine there will be an outcry from all the MRAs, but, I think it's very good news...

only joined yesterday actually , i find the thread amusing that`s all.

cailindana · 30/01/2015 14:20

We don't do without men bigloads. Most of us here have male partners. We're doing absolutely fine. And now that you've said you're going to leave women alone, you've made many of us very happy. So thank you very much for that.

Mitchy1nge · 30/01/2015 14:19

that is blatantly a regular on a quite amusing wind up, deliberate misuse of apostrophe gives it away

also the bit about sperm, even thick men know they have to take personal responsibility for their own sperm

i'm working on sporogenesis through cell division

There's a man called Frank on another feminism thread at the mo. Think he and bigloads might be friends. If not then they totally should be.

bigloads · 30/01/2015 14:18

only the silly one`s are left :~)

us informed one know best ,

you see woman cannot do without men , the world would stop

SardineQueen · 30/01/2015 14:17

I don't think anyone is interested in your sperm, "bigloads".

I really, really don't.

cailindana · 30/01/2015 14:17

You're not the only source of sperm bigloads, don't worry. There are plenty of normal men out there who actually like women and get along with them.

Don't you worry at all, we'll do absolutely fine without you.

PetulaGordino · 30/01/2015 14:16

lol i love this idea that it's a threat

"i hate women so much i don't want to have anything to do with them!"

um, good!

bigloads · 30/01/2015 14:15

but where would you get your sperm from to continue mass production of children

PetulaGordino · 30/01/2015 14:15

so sadistic that they're desperately wanting to be with you?

cailindana · 30/01/2015 14:15

That's great bigloads, you carry on not going near them. You seem to like talking to us, but if that's all you do then you're doing pretty well. Good boy.

bigloads · 30/01/2015 14:13

i never went near them in the first place , never found anything interesting about any of them , most have some kind of deranged two faced sadistic streak to them .

PetulaGordino · 30/01/2015 14:13

Well if there are men out there who find it annoying that women don't want to be raped then it's absolutely fantastic if those men decide to have nothing more to do with women. In fact all of women's problems could be solved if those men followed bigloads' great example.

You are a shining light in feminism bigloads. Well done.

SardineQueen · 30/01/2015 14:13

I mean really though it's not great is it

I want to be able to rape with impunity (bar stranger rape with excessive violence)
I don't want to have to pay for food or shelter for any children I have, if I decide I don't want to be with their mother any more, or she leaves (possibly due to point 1 above)

I mean REALLY this is a stance that some men people think is that reasonable that they write it down?

SardineQueen · 30/01/2015 14:10

lol cailin kaBOSH good one

And funny cos it's true innit. A real result for womankind grin]

SardineQueen · 30/01/2015 14:09

Forced pre-nups?

Not keen really. I feel quite comfortable with sharing my wealth with DH Smile

cailindana · 30/01/2015 14:09

Oh good bigloads, does that mean you're going to stay away from women from now on? That would be great news.

bigloads · 30/01/2015 14:07

i think we need force pre-nups too , and equal right`s in divorce and settlement

co habitation laws need to be banished too .

why anyone would get involved with women nowadays is beyond me

Sadly, MrsKCastle, I am increasingly starting to think that not only are there more men out there just like that, but also that they can't see anything wrong with the situation!

As an aside, can anyone link me to the data for men being more likely to be raped than falsely accused? I'd like some numbers to throw at give to my mum who often worries about false accusations.
