Sarah Silverman Offers Men 10 Ways They Can Stop
Themselves From Raping Women
by Kelli Serio25 Mar 2015
Devout feminist Sarah Silverman is
at it again on social media, this time sparking outrage on Twitter for posting
a list of “10 Rape Prevention Tips,” which alot of users haven’t found funny.
Silverman’s tip list not only paints all men as potential
rapists, according to some, but also insinuates that only females can be
victims of sexual assault.
The comedienne posted a graphic image, directed specifically
to men, with phrases such as “Don’t put drugs in women’s drinks,” and “If you
are in an elevator and a woman gets in, don’t rape her.”
Silverman is now the one being accused of impropriety:
“jesus christ wtf is this. not everybody out here raping
bitches wats wrong with you,” asked one user.
“This is so offensive to men. What an awful subtext your
propagating,” wrote a commentator. “I
feel like battling sexism with sexist propaganda is the best way to promote
sexism,” said another.
The negative commentary didn’t end there, as many
posited that men are vulnerable to sexual abuse, too.
“But when it comes to rape & violence against women
there’s a negative stereotype some folks try to blanket on “the men,” said Zac Lee. “When u
make a parody on that article & focus it on ‘men’, it’s implicitly
demonizing all men as sexual predators.”
“‘We” don’t want anything except for men to stop being
demonized by ignorant hags like @SarahKSilverman,” wrote Femibuster. “Western feminism is, and should be,
dead.”
“Not ‘funny’ to blame all men. Id rather take assault on
women seriously,” said Karen Percivalsmum.
A 2011 survey released by The Center for Disease Control revealed that 19.3% of women have been raped at
least once in their lives and an estimated 2% of men reported at least one rape
in the span of their lifetime.
CDC reports:
Consistent with previous studies, the overall pattern of
results suggest that women, in particular, are heavily impacted over their
lifetime. However, the results also indicate that many men experience sexual
violence, stalking, and, in particular, physical violence by an intimate
partner.
