lolwut? That's your takeaway? That you can call women bitch, slut, whore and expect them to do what you want because you are a man, be available sex objects to you, but at least you aren't being violent. That would be messed up.

I wasn't trying to prove anything, I was trying to counter your example of how only men are oppressed by dumb t shirts.

Those are from Spencer's, which has over 600 actual stores, not some obscure internet brand. And I have personally seen someone wearing at least 3 of those shirts in public.

And no one is saying you can't acknowledge that. But it has been done to death. It is not a defense for the rapist. People for whom their first reaction to hearing a rape accusation is, "well, she shouldn't have been drinking that much/in that situation/wearing that" are a part of the problem. When they feel like they have to say that every time there is a discussion about rape, when everyone already knows, they are a bigger part of the problem. Of course you shouldn't go to a black neighborhood and pick a fight, but when you do and the police come afterwards, they are going to believe you and investigate the crime. Many times women don't even get that.

Awesome, well said. I knew there was some hope left for Slashdot.

Oh hey, you mean like these twenty t-shirts to your one that I found in two seconds of googling? http://www.buzzfeed.com/donnad...

Are you saying it can't be done or that it is too hard so we just shouldn't try? Because the Mass Effect series would like to have a word with you about gender and complicated character interactions.

It's clear and you only need one nail to get the job done. Also there's not reason you couldn't put it on like a drink stirrer. Think outside the box before you cry "what about the men".

That's why we tell people to exercise and watch their diet like, all the time in every form of media there is. Why can't we handle this with even a modicum of the same respect? Teach people that sex is only to be had with positive consent from both parties, under no influence from drugs.

And the fedora-wearing neckbeard crawls out of his slime pit.

You are posting this idea on pretty much every thread but it makes no sense. It requires that someone be paranoid enough that they know about this nail polish and would want someone to test their drink, but lazy enough to not actually get it themselves and paradoxically trusting enough that they would accept that person's word about the veracity of their test. And, of course there will be drugs that it cannot detect. This is just a proof of concept. That does not make the whole idea worthless.

Umm... you know that just because it is called "nail polish" doesn't mean that it won't stick to other things, like a drink stirrer, right?

That article is so full of shit. They admit that at least 1 in 40 college women are raped. If the same percentage of them got, say, meningitis, that would be all over the news as the worst epidemic in decades. Stop downplaying the seriousness of the situation.

Or because women who start Kickstarter projects have ideas that are more interesting to women. The causality could be flipped.

It could be that women have interesting ideas for products that are useful to other women, but that wouldn't get funding through traditional means. So it might not be that women are funding projects because they are started by women, but that because they are started by women they are projects that are interesting to other women.
