I'm sure the folks at A+ are just joyful at Aaron Clarey's "Worthless". That book perfectly defines "You want fries wid dat?"

My comment to the A+ ers it to tell 'em if you don't like the joke, then don't tell it. If you don't want to hear it, put your fingers in your ears and sing La La La La while I'm telling it.

I have posted this before but I cannot say enough good about the book, Kindly Inquisitors: The New Attacks on Free Thought, which covers this type of PC censorship on college campuses.

I'm not sure TF made his argument very well.

It may be absolutely true that dressing more conservatively reduces the risk of a woman being raped, but women should also be able to exert freedom in their dress.

It comes down to whether women should value safety over freedom when there's a trade-off between the two.

It's similar to the issues surrounding free-speech. Some may choose to censor their speech to maximize their personal safety, but others find it important to defend the principle that they should have the right to criticize any ideology or political group they dislike. For instance, TF would probably find his life much easier if he stayed silent on controversial topics, but he obviously finds it more important to engage in debates on hot-button issues.

I think it's absolutely reasonable to tell women how they can best minimize their chances of being raped, but it doesn't follow that women have a duty to follow that advice or that they're to blame if things go wrong.

In Western society, we don't blame the victim and that means a woman who is raped after going out in a mini-skirt has as much right to justice as a woman who wears the hijab.

Is TF a 'rape apologist'? No, not at all- but I still think he didn't get it absolutely right in these videos.

One other problem (from TF's first video)- the gloomy idea that we shouldn't expect men to change because rape is inherent to (at least some) male brains.

That's just wrong. There has been a dramatic reduction in rape over the last few decades and furthermore- it's got nothing to do with women covering themselves up.

It turned out that society can act to curb the worst tendencies of humanity, even if those tendencies have a biological basis. As Steven Pinker showed in his recent book on the decline of violence- the incidences of both homicide and rape have fallen to record low levels in the modern West and there's no reason to think they can't be reduced further.
