linaerys had a couple of great links I have to pass on. Finally, a man weighs in on the whole "the guy couldn't help it" meme that says women are always to blame for whatever happens to them.

I am not my cock
I want to go on record as saying a big, mean Fuck You to every single man who has ever claimed that men are incapable of stopping themselves when pussy is on the line.

When someone in his comments used the old "she didn't DESERVE it, but hey, she tempted them y'know, it was like me leaving my keys in the car in a bad neighborhood," he wrote a sequel. The point is not only that women are more likely to be raped doing normal, everyday shit, but that they're constantly forced to justify themselves when it happens. That we consider this acceptable is the fucking problem, and in my humble opinion, we need to shut the fuck up with the robbery-car-metaphors, and talk about the rape-assault-evil facts.

Highly, highly recommended reading.
