You are blind to the reality of what goes on and because you are so close minded you will never be part of anything but the problem.

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.

Interesting. I don't find it insulting. Because whether we like it or not, there is still a significant power imbalance in our culture that favors boys/men.

Obviously we as parents - both moms and dads are not doing enough considering the imbalance in sexual attacks on one gender vs the other.

What I find surprising here is the quick jump to tell girls to respect and stand up for themselves - a little like blaming the victim. Boys need have have respect for girls instilled in the just as mush - if not more because we as a society are constantly fighting the power of the penis,,,,,

"THe power of the penis" .... so true. It tends to fill with all the blood from the brain and prevents logical thinking!!!!

I didn't say that grabbing somebody's arm without their consent is sexual assault. I said that it's assault. And unless you're fine with random people on the Metro grabbing your arm whenever they feel like it, you think it's assault too.

OVER.THE.TOP. Frighteningly so.

So when a random person on the Metro grabs your arm, you think, "Oh hey, no problem, nice to meet you!"?

We're talking about PEOPLE WE KNOW. My God, you veer from one extreme to another.

If you're talking about PEOPLE YOU KNOW, then you should say that. Like this: "When I'm talking about arm-grabbing, I'm referring to grabbing the arms of my friends, not the arms of random strangers on the street."
