@amydiehl@mstdn.social These young men have mental health issues that are endangering the lives of women around them. They may also be a danger to men around them, the ones who know this kind of behaviour is wrong. On so many levels. We —men— all have mothers and grandmothers. Some of us have aunts, sisters, daughters, granddaughters, women friends or colleagues. Most of us would not condone the raping of women close to us. Somehow, we’re ok when it happens at a frat party. Or after a hockey game. I’m not ok with this. It’s one of the reasons I do the work I do. If you’re a man who is ok with rape or other forms of violence against women, I urge you to get mental health help. This may be the most important step you take for your own happiness and health, and the women you love. Rape culture is a men’s health issue, and it seriously fucks up our families, communities, and the larger culture. #menshealth #men #rapeculture #sexualassault #family@menshealth@fedigroups.social

#Clavicular’s charges shows the real danger of #MAGA manhood Long before his arrest for rape, the #looksmaxxing star built a brand based on contempt for women By Amanda Marcotte "It wasn’t long after Braden Peters, better known as 'Clavicular,' was arrested on suspicion of raping a 17-year-old girl at his family’s home in Massachusetts that his fellow MAGA influencers started complaining that he was the real victim. " 'Now we live in a climate where a 19-year-old can’t even sleep with a 16-year-old with a little alcohol involved. Absolutely insane,' said #NickFuentes, the popular #WhiteNationalist podcaster, ignoring the fact that it has long been considered rape to have sex with someone unconscious and unable to consent, as alleged by the criminal complaint against Peters."

@rinkside@mastodon.online I understand. I stopped reading twice because I found it hard to stomach that our Canadian boys’/men’s hockey culture is a breeding ground for awful attitudes and behaviours. After the “acquitted rapist” signing in Edmonton recently I did two things: revoked my citizenship in Oilerville, and bought the book. I’ll finish it this time. 🏒🥅🇨🇦 #Oilers #sexualassault #rapeculture #nhl #hockey #hnom #edmonton @hnom@fedigroups.social

4 days ago The Pentagon fired the editor in chief of Stars and Stripes. Yesterday they broke the story of Elsie Dominguez, a civilian engineer who was raped repeatedly by the Captain of a Navy ship she was on. A Judge ruled she needs to file a worker’s comp claim. For rape. They keep trying to silence the press & quash the truth. Elsie’s story must be told: https://www.stripes.com/branches/navy/2026-08-25/lawsuit-workers-comp-sexual-assault-navy-ship-22658787.html #uspol #rape #rapeculture #fascism #freepress #pentagon #navy

Friday, #Trump’s attys asked a federal appeals court to intervene & stay, or stop the disbursement of damages, until #SCOTUS decides whether to reconsider [even though they already declined the appeal]. His attys asked the appeals court to issue an injunction if the funds were disbursed & order the transfer of funds back to the court-controlled account while the appeal plays out. #RapistInChief #law #SexualAssault #rape #RapeCulture #misogyny #power #AbuseOfPower #ViolenceAgainstWomen

Regular reminder to not use violent sexualized language to talk about toxic people. Victims of sexualized violence, no matter their age, often blame themselves. That is a normal psychological reaction to traumatizing abuse. When you say "fuck nazis" you're basically telling women, men, non-binary grownups and children victimized: "Yes its okay to use sexualized violence against bad people. They deserve it." And that means: "You must have deserved it too, which means you're as bad as a nazi." Show empathy to the victims by not normalizing the acts and language of the perpetrators. #SexualizedViolence #SexualizedLanguage #RapeCulture #WordsMatter
