Petition to stop male crime being reported as female crime

93 replies

Agerbilatemycardigan · 04/07/2018 22:31

After the recent tube station attack, there was an outcry by members of the public who objected to the way the attack was reported as being committed by women, when it was obvious that the attackers were male.

Please sign the below petition to stop this from happening in the future.

If these people go to prison, they may be housed with XX prisoners, which is a much bigger concern. Sad

Agerbilatemycardigan as i said this title is perfect for FWR Flowers it just isnt the clickbait needed for active
Something with an AIBU start is good as people look at titles rather than boards if going from active. (Actually this is making me realise we need a new thread for the other petition too...)

I have to be up in 4 hours but something along the lines of "AIBU to say women cant rape" then context in op?

Thanks for supporting this!

I was making a prom dress for my daughter and didn't get time to come and pop it on here. Because women are mothers with their nose to the sewing machine as well as having to fight for our damn rights!

Cheers everyone!

Thank you for starting the petition Jeanhatchet

I've been supporting it on Twitter too (I've got a different name on there)

Just checked how the petition's going, and it's doing brilliantly Smile

And...Thank you , Jean, for everything you do for women. Love and respect to you, as always xx

Please can someone help me with short snappy few sentences to accompany this on Facebook? You know, shocking fact, how many women have been convicted of rape when rape is a male offence, why it’s important statistics be recorded accurately and what it means if they aren’t type of thing.
I want to convey fact, common sense and impact, but I’m not sure my knowledge on this subject is as comprehensive as others and I don’t want to get anything wrong and give people the opportunity to pull me up on it.

Perso, I think all crime should be reported according to the sex of the individual regardless of how they choose to live their lives.

Agerbilatemycardigan · 05/07/2018 08:26

I think I need to make it about crime in general with regards to naming the birth sex of a perpetrator Waddlelikeapenguin I'll have a think about it.
