Is this a satirical post? I cannot imagine anyone writing this in 2014 and actually believing it.


Read the whole thread, it's rampant with sexism and victim blaming. Typical for a HN discussion about anything related to gender issues, really.


Trigger Warning: HN


How can you believe or not believe without any information at all (that applies to both sides here)?

Sometimes our society recognizes a problem. It becomes a sensitive, emotional topic. Racism, sexism, all real problems.

And when a society is in this sensitive state, some formerly (or even currently) oppressed people take advantage. The oppressors become the oppressed and the oppressed become the oppressors. It's a real thing, and it's quite natural, if undesired.

You don't know what the situation is here. I don't. No one commenting from aside knows.
