[Regarding a poster who asked if her friend was still pure after being raped]
The only thing your friend did wrong (unless she is very flirty and dresses the part-I'm assuming that is not the case)was to accept help from a male stranger. I'm sure she regrets thatand will definitely not do that again.

What the fuck?!
Why do these dumb bastards blame the victim? Either the clothes, or the attitude, or something else equally stupid. (...accepting help from a male stranger...) Are any males remotely offended by people assuming they're rapists?
Why why do they still ask "Is she still pure?" That pisses me off to no end!
Fundie girl: “Oh my god mom and dad, I was raped!”
Fundie father: “Sweetie, don’t use the lord’s name in vain.”
Fundie mother: “Well I hope you weren’t wearing that double-knit turtle neck grammy gave you last Christmas.”
Fundie girl: “Well, yeah, I was. It was cold out and I didn’t

Fundie mother: “Gosh durn it all to
What have I told you about leading on boys like that?"
Fundie father: “You know, your just asking for it with those moonboots too. You need to go to your room and pray for what you’ve done.”
Fundie girl: “What? What I’ve done?’ I was the one who

Fundie father: “Look, it’s over, end of discussion. Now shut your whorey mouth and ask baby jesus why his daddy made you such a little prick tease!”
(girl cries, runs to her room and slams door)
Fundie parents sit quietly, reading the newspaper.
Fundie father: “You know, I wonder if it was that Thompson boy. I noticed him checking her out from the hedges a number of times.”
Fundie mother: “Hmm. He’s a nice boy. I was going to ask him to rake the leaves for us.”
Fundie father: “Hmm.”
Redhunter - That was worthy of a Putzer Prize, or something. It was beautiful.
Aside from the obvious blame the victim- Ms. Debbie didn't actually address the question of purity.
Of course, I'm still wondering why a couple fat pigs on T4C are even worried about purity in the first place. You KNOW there's nothing pure about them and never was.
Wow, talk about a blame the victim mentality. Tell me, again, how it's the fault of the girl that a guy couldn't keep his pup down and control himself like a halfway decent person?
I've been subjected to this mentality all my life. My family isn't very religious at all, but the fundie mentality is still present.
Boys weren't allowed to come play at my house in elementary school. I might get raped.
I wanted to go to concerts, but I wasn't allowed to go without an adult. My mom would never let her boyfriend go with me because attending a concert with an older man would make people think he was a pedophile.
A man from my church used to give me a ride there and back, and one of the ladies was horrified by this.
It was a 10-minute walk home up a very steep hill after I got off the bus. One time, a car of boys offered me a ride up. I accepted, and when I got home my mother was screaming and crying, insisting I could have been raped.
Fucking hell. It's all because of people like this that I was never able to have any fun during my school years. All males are out to rape you.

No, I don't have kids, and I'll be sterile soon (long story) so I doubt I ever will. But if I did, I can't imagine I'd ever repeat my parents' mistakes.
In fact, I can't imagine anybody, except fundies, making my parents' mistakes. I don't think my parenting would change in light of how I grew up, because you don't have to go through what I did to realise this "all males are rapists" mentality is idiotic.
This is the same attitude that keeps rape going. Blaming the victim isn't going to solve anything.
And I'm disgusted at this idea that men can't control their urges and aren't responsibile. How fucking degrading is that? Is there any sane, decent man that just goes around raping anything in sight?
Goetian, I think maybe your parents have either gone through or seen a horrible rape. Even if they haven't, I can kind of understand them being afraid for you. I'm terrified of being raped. I think it's disgusting that women and girls (and men and boys) have to live in fear. (However, I do see your point at being resentful. Those situations didn't seem all that dangerous, and you can't just live in fear your whole life.)
Why do these dumb bastards blame the victim?
As a former Baptist, I can tell you from experience why these fuckwads blame the victim - because they don't believe rape victims are victims at all. Same way they feel about domestic abuse. It's all about finding something the woman did to deserve what happened to her. When I was molested by the music minister of my former church, the pastor told me I must have done something to let the music minister believe he could take liberties with me and that I should pray that not only would god change my heart about modesty, but pray to forgive the music minister for what he did. I was also asked to apologize to the music minister for trying to "tarnish his image". When I refused, I was asked to step down from the choir.
When I divorced my abusive husband, I was asked to leave the church.

Fuck girl, that's some shit. It's hard to believe someone even COULD take on this attitude to begin with, but when it's church sponsered...Hey, FUCK them. And fuck mrs. debbie.
(but thank you Mike and MK)
I guess Mrs Debbie must be one of those feminasties, advising her to reject the assistance of decent Godfearin' men such as meself! She is clearly a troll, and should not be writing on good Christian forums to encourage li'l Lucy to send men to the death camps! It is she who killed chivalry, an' next time a female raises her pretty tearstained face to me in supplication I'll be smashin' it in with me hobnailed boots.
Mrs. Debbie's going soft on us. The girl not only left the kitchen, she left the house when she damned well should have been making her man a sandwich and then cleaning the kitchen counter. She's a filthy whore!
Really, compared to a lot of the crap we get here this barely even qualifies as blaming the rape victim.
If, God forbid, Mrs. Debbie should ever happen to be raped, we'll never know about it, because she'll blame herself.
Unless, of course, I'm giving her too much credit and "blame the victim" only works for everyone but her.
Either way, it's mind-numbingly horrifying.
It horrifies me that this sick bitch is telling this kind of crap to kids who don't know better. That is heartbreaking. Those teens who are not strong (or lucky) enough to break away from this are going to be some seriously messed-up adults.
I also find it offensive that people like this assume that every man is a potential rapist. That's bullshit.
I wonder what Debbie's opinion would be if the rapist were someone the victim knew? As this is the case in most rapes. I suppose females should just stay in the house and not talk to anyone but our immediate families? But again, what if the rapist is a relative?
Face it, Debbie: blaming the victim just doesn't work. It's bullshit, and it's cruel. You are a heartless, rotten, pathetic excuse for a human being, let alone a woman. I pity your poor children :(
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
