Bear in mind that Little Teddy not only has no problem with rape, or even marital rape as in it doesn't actually exist because a woman submits her bodily autonomy to her mate, and he's a self confessed serial rapist to boot. If you consider a forcing oneself upon a woman without consent to be actual rape, implying that Teddy does not actually consider that rape, he is in fact a serial rapist. This would be one of several times he has proudly confirmed he doesn't give a shit about rape or rape culture or the women who have been raped because they share in the blame, always.
Teddy will stop being a flaming illogical hypocrite pulling shit from his ass the day that his mythological hell freezes over.

Mailvox: the hidden contempt for women
Norah is skeptical:
"And if one of you assholes (and you know who you are) that I've been reading the past few days would EVER lift a finger to save me from a rapist, then I'm Queen fucking Elizabeth.
There is a certain irony in that the more traditionally oriented male - the sort who thinks date rape is a myth - is far more likely to save a woman from another man than the sort who enjoys posturing about how terrible rape is and how he would never rape a woman.
If the definition of rape is stretched so far to include women who have not given consent, then I am absolutely a serial rapist. So, too, is every man I know. And if that makes me a rapist, I shall endeavor to somehow survive with that upon my conscience.
Although Norah is not likely to believe it, unlike many of the bold anti-rapists striking morally superior poses, I have actually physically defended a woman from an attacker. It wasn't a rape situation, though, just a mere beating. A loser named Buzzy had been dating a stripper friend of mine, and for whatever reason, decided to punch her in the face outside a nightclub just after closing. TPAM caught the girl as she collapsed, while I introduced Buzzy's head to the brick wall of the nightclub, then twice ran his face back and forth along what turned out to be a rather rough surface.
He didn't look quite as pretty after that, but he did learn his lesson. I'm always quite happy to defend a woman from an unprovoked attack and I'd probably, out of sheer instinct, defend a woman from an attack that she provoked and perhaps even deserved. But I do not accept that women are children, totally devoid of all responsibility for their decisions and actions in all situations.
I may not think that they should be allowed to vote, but I don't harbor that sort of utter contempt for them.
So Little Ted is not only a rapist but will also be your night in shining armor before anyone who actually thinks rape is a bad thing comes to your rescue. He's just simply amazing like that.
And, apparently, in this instance lack of consent a major problem is now evil because allegedly MLK was involved. Nothing convenient about that, eh?
Never mind that we are being asked to accept this allegation uncritically coming from Hoover's and his FBI at the time who was quite literally out to get him, had sent a letter and package to his wife and child anonymously presumably to cause him to either leave the movement or commit suicide, and had repeatedly distributed dishonest reports within the federal government about MLK's fictional ties to the Soviet Communist Party, and so on.
Pack it back up that ol' pooper there, Teddy.
