Jake Vale Has it Right

In this Letter to Jake Vale Explaining Rape Culture C.J. Redwine creates some convoluted world in which rape is so frequent and common that it has its own culture.  Please.  It's not like a statistically significant number of people are raped (certainly not something like a third), and if they are (when they're not just lying about not having buyer's remorse, that is) I'm sure that in most cases it was due to some misunderstanding, and if women really think hard about it, they'll realize that THEY were the cause of the misunderstanding. Men lose the ability to control themselves and not rape when skirts reach a certain length or when they are lead on with friendly smiles.  Rape culture indeed. These women who are complaining are just oversensitive. I'm absolutely sure that if Jake Vale were to go around picking up strange men and carrying them around nothing bad would ever happen to him.

Absolutely.
