A few days ago I had a dream where I was chased around my apartment complex by a serial killer... who looked like Leonardo DiCaprio. Then I woke up at 3AM.
But honestly it was in a weird way refreshing to have a normal scary nightmare. Normally my nightmares are about being late to work or failing an exam lol.

I guess flinching when you see a punch coming your way is more analogous, then? Just because you flinched, that doesn't mean you wanted to be punched, right?
And semantics aside, I'll be sure to keep my eye on anyone who tries to seriously, unironically make the case that someone "enjoyed" an assault because their body "prepared" for it.
And again, arousal can be preparation but it can also be a reaction to something that's already happening. Or it can be entirely random. I mean, aren't inappropriately timed boners a crucial part of the male teenage experience?

Weeell I don't know if the analogy is *that* incorrect. Arousal can happen when you look at someone you find attractive but also just as a reaction to physical stimulation. And the latter might be your body preparing "out of necessity" – especially for those of us who have a vagina, the body knows that it'd hurt like hell otherwise so it prepares, whether the encounter is consensual or not – rather than out of genuine arousal. I suppose the mechanics might be a bit different for you gents, but the principle remains. Especially when we take into account that the overwhelming majority of SA happens between people who know each other and there's usually a lot of coercion, manipulation, gaslighting and power dynamics involved.

Once upon a time there was an iguana who was unfortunately thrown by a footfag to become an actor. Only zoom could reverse it, but fortunately for our hero, they found their chance when an egg accidentally deleted. Though the egg was reluctant, eventually the hero convinced them to give them zoom. The moment it happened, the actor was reversed and our hero once more became an iguana.
.
Zoom sounds like some kind of drug, not gonna lie. In fact the whole story sounds like it was written by someone on copious amounts of drugs, lol.
Oh btw if you're into this whole mad libs things and have an Android phone, Google assistant has this thing where you can play mad libs with it. I guess most people already know this, but in case you don't, it's a funny thing to play when you're alone and bored.

Just curious as I'm not a history nerd, how many of them actually declared wars and how many only continued them from their predecessor? Because those two are arguably two quite different things.
That said, in principle I do agree with the point of the post, women aren't always inherently peaceful and men aren't inherently warmongers. I'm just asking out of curiosity.

A lot of SA survivors actually have trauma because of this, they think that because their body responded the way it just naturally does to external stimuli (ie. boner or wetness), it means it was somehow their fault because the perpetrator thought they were enjoying it. So yeah, boner is not consent. Consent is consent. Ideally informed and enthusiastic consent.

I suppose, but how does one debunk anything then, when dealing with a person who doesn't believe in facts?

Ahahah that one was actually the first to go when I gave it to this alternative/punk second hand shop that I cooperate with. Good to know what's popular and what isn't. I personally expected the white one to be more popular because of Wednesday Addams, but turns out not really lol. Yay market research?

By they worked so hard for it!! By scamming people... and underpaying workers... and exploiting every loophole imaginable and then some to avoid paying their fair share of taxes... But we gotta let them keep their stolen wealth, otherwise we're the thieves!

With men the example that first comes to mind is circumcision. Which is absolutely a violation of bodily autonomy and shouldn't be done.
One argument for circumcision I've heard are the supposed medical benefits, but turns out that in countries with fair access to water and therefore good hygienic standards, even the medical argument becomes utterly void. At the end of the day it's just a religious practice that crept up into the mainstream.
Or are there any other examples of interference with men's bodily autonomy you had in mind?
