BILL COSBY ACCUSED OF RAPE

[blueberryhill]

I can't believe there is still a debate over this.......Bill Cosby is an arrogant asshole who preys on women (IMO). Years ago and even today, most rape victims don't come forward. I am not going to list the reasons again cuz you all know them by now. Rape is not about sex, it is about power and control. Cosby knew his vulnerable victims (yes they are victims) would not report it. We now know some women did report it and were discouraged from reporting it or were called downright liars.....As other women step forward, it gives others courage to do so, too. Rape is a very under reported crime in our country, because of some of our outdated perceptions about this crime. Even if you have had too much to drink, doesn't mean you want to be raped. Even if your married, husbands can be prosecuted for rape. In trials, women are made to feel like sluts, whores, etc. and very often won't proceed with charges. There are a lot of rapists out there, and youth is not an excuse or using "boys will be boys" excuse. Sexual predators do not quit their behaviors; very often their criminal behavior only escalates.
There is no cure for these behaviors. Period.
