[quote name="Rape Trigger"]If Kirbybits is walking down an alley in a strange city, and has a rape trigger, then my heart goes out to her. If she is on a third or fourth date with a guy who is being overly aggressive and that causes a rape trigger, then that is absolutely sad and unfortunate, and I feel a great degree of sympathy for her. If reading Twitter, reading blog comments, and perusing the on-line store of one of the worst things on the Internet give her a trigger, then she doesn't get to use the Internet. She can stay off of it and do other things. She doesn't get to have a screechy, condescending blog that paints anyone that disagrees with her as snarling sexual predators. She can go find other things to do. She doesn't get to endlessly bleat about how terrible everyone else is for simply living their lives without checking in with her to see if what they are about to post is OK or not. However, she DOES think that the Internet, the fucking Internet, needs to check in with her first. I've never before seen someone who was that full of themselves in any context. I mean, she CAN, she can say whatever she wants. She hasn't come to grips with the fact that the rest of the world doesn't give a shit about her and anyone else, nor should it. Additionally, having nothing to do with any of this, thank you for your service. [/quote]
