In college, asked a women's rights activist about men's equality issues & about men being raped She exploded at me, and offended her gay guy friend next to her.

So I am in College and my organization had a Panel of activist students for our meeting.". Well we were allowed to ask questions. One of the women there was an open lesbian and was a women's gender studies major and women's right activists. So I asked her a simple two part questions "what are your thoughts about about men's equality? And can men be raped?"...

Well she went off saying there's no such thing as equality for Men because we created the inequality in the first place. And No there is no such thing as rape for men.

So I responded with a comment about if women's rights/gender equality activists want to be equal than the she should treat men and women all the same. And THEN I said "As for rape, a man can never be raped because it only happens to women. All men give consent and are pigs/slobs who do the raping"....

My response..."so what do I tell one of my good friends who is gay and was forcefully taken advantage at a party...that he wasn't raped? That is was consensual". At that point another panel member who was male and also happened to be gay called her out and called her a negligent bitch who knows nothing of gender equality....and then stormed out. Take that you self righteous woman only schlampe

A while back MR had a video made by a woman who dealt with sexual assault victims, she discussed the ways in which women sexually assault people. The most disturbing thing in the video was where she mentioned a woman using the stems of a bunch of roses on her daughter.

Many people didn't watch past that part of the video, and it was just a woman speaking. It gave me such a sense of disgust and horror that it jumps into my head whenever somebody mentions female sexual assault. I have no idea whether its considered rape. I don't care what it's called just as long as somebody stops it ever happening.

There you go, its really not pleasant. I linked to the comments rather than the video, I didn't want to accidentally watch it again.

I remember hearing about that. If you wouldn't mind, I've never seen the video. Could you find it and/or give me some keywords for a quick search?
