Activist Communique: Best Advice Ever to Avoid Rape?
A critical response towards an article published by Krystalline Kraus about advice on how to avoid rape by a police officer lecturing in York University, Toronto; basically on why he is RIGHT.
Why the Police Officer is Right in saying “Don’t Dress like a Slut” to Deter Rapists.

OK
First off, I would like to say, that perhaps his use of language wasn’t the most appropriate.
BUT he is definetly 100% right in what he has said.
I mean just think about it. Would you be more compelled to steal if there was a million dollars in it for you or one? Like seriously, if your showing off your ass, not wearing any undergarments, wearing completely in-appropriate tops that show WAYYY too much, I would say your chances of being raped may just be a little higher than if you were just wearing regular jeans and shirts.
Its all about incentive. Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m not saying women don’t have the right to wear whatever they want but what kind of image are they putting out there of themselves and other women by wearing those types of clothes? It’s pretty obvious– your asking for some, PLAIN and SIMPLE.
Its completely unfair what all those so called “activists” are saying and doing against him for his OWN opinion. It’s none of your business what he believes, get on with your lives, its his RIGHT. Also, if you really took the time to think about it, he does have a very valid point. I’m not saying it will deter all rapists, but definetly some percentage; and what can it hurt to be safe? Its a lot harder to be raped and picked out of a crowd if your wearing regular clothes than if your flaunting your stuff.
Enough said. Maybe you don’t agree with me; but there is truth and validity behind the argument. No one can argue that, I would love to see someone try.
