[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I have a son and a daughter. And while I certainly teach them BOTH to be respectful of EVERYONE, I do plan on spending some extra time and energy with my son and teaching not only respect, but about consent, what to do if a girl is passed out (you would be amazed at how many "nice guys" think the answer is "fuck her" and not realize this is rape), what to do when his *friends* are being disrespectful and so forth.

Too many parents think treating and training their sons and daughters identically in this regard is the way to go, fair, etc, but becaues I know so many women who have been sexually assaulted by boys/guys they know, there certainly is a problem in our culture, and I want to be part of the solution, so hell yeah, I will be teaching my son about respecting girls.[/quote]
I hope you teach your son how to deal with aggressive girls. Many girls think they just have to pick a boy and that boy will be in to them. When the boy is not attracted to the girl, things can go down hill quickly. By your response, you seem to think males are animals with no control.[/quote]

LOL, naaah, I don't think men are animals without control.  The opposite, actually.  I think men should have so much control that they shouldn't use "she was dressed so sexy she was asking for it" as an excuse for example.  And of course I will treat my son how to deal with aggressive girls!  I don't think all women are angels by any means, just as I don't think all men are animals.

But you are putting words in my post that I didn't say.  Here is what I said:  "I do plan on spending some extra time and energy with my son and teaching not only respect, but about consent..."

If you want to read into this as me being a man hating monster, then go at it.  *shrug*[/quote]
