    It’s amazing what you can do if you try.

    Did you know that modern society has an entire profession based around teaching other people’s sons? Like, adults learn for years how to do this, and then we pay those people to teach our sons and everyone else’s sons too. Most countries even make it a legal requirement to be taught by someone!

    It’s amazing.

      I’m not even bothering with this. It’s too fucking stupid.

        You mean because they made it illegal to talk about sex in schools?

        Yeah, I’m sure that’s not related at all

            No, I said teachers exist, so a lack of parenting shouldn’t be the issue.

            The problem isn’t “parents suck”, the problem is “we have a way to address this problem, and we are actively stopping it from being effective”.

              The problem is “rapists exist”, one of many partial solutions is “teach girls to defend themselves”. It’s really weird that you seem to think there’s only one path forward and seem more interested in assigning blame than lessening the impact of the issue.

                I think you have me confused with a different lemmitor. Everything I’ve said has been the exact opposite of what you just wrote.
