#BeenRapedNeverReported and Why You Should Be Cynical
By Despite what feminists might tell you, women are human. And humans lie. Therefore, women lie just like men do.
A new hashtag just recently started trending on Twitter: #BeenRapedNeverReported. It appears to be another feminist-driven Social Justice Warrior trend. So-called “hashtag activism” in general has got to be the most backward, pompous, lazy, and delusional form of moral crusading there is. Now you can tell all your friends that you actually give a shit about stuff without actually having to get off your lazy fucking ass and doing something about it.
#BeenRapedNeverReported is coming on the heels of#YesAllWomen, #HeForShe, and #ItsOnUs—with basically the same message: that just about every human being with a vagina is a rape victim and it’s all because of men. More insidiously, we’re expected to swallow unsubstantiated claims of sexual assault without any evidence or due process. Now any person can claim to have been a victim, post it on Twitter, and this will be used as another documentary reaffirmation of the terrible, permissive “rape culture” that feminists would have us believe we are living in. Never mind the fact there is no possible way to confirm any of the allegations being posted online to be true … since none of these allegations were ever reported or investigated. Because of “rape culture,” women have no incentive to actually come forward and report these heinous crimes because of the vicious treatment they receive. Such barbaric horrors these victims face, like “being asked questions,” “processing evidence,” and “fact-checking.” Those evil, sexist, rapey cops are the ones to blame for this reign of terror. Don’t they consider someone’s feelings before having the audacity to actually investigate someone’s claims? Don’t they know it’s impolite not to automatically assume they’re telling the truth?

Lame-Stream Misandry: The Empathy Gap Is Shockingly Real
By When will it end?
There are times when I think perhaps I have overstated the level of misandry in our mainstream media. Then I open the morning paper or watch a program like The Project and my doubts are fiercely shredded and my resolve to keep speaking out with words or my pen is strengthened.
We have all witnessed the coverage of the kidnapping of 200 Nigerian schoolgirls by the terrorist jihadists Boko Haram. This coverage is appropriate and warranted. No one could suggest otherwise. It is the gobsmacking, gut-wrenching, breathtaking double standards that so appall and anger me.
The following is a quote from one of the only articles I have been able to locate on an incident that occurred in February of this year.
It is at the end of the fifth paragraph that we discover that:

Islamic militants set fire to a locked dormitory at a school in northern Nigeria, then shot and slit the throats of students who tried to escape through windows. At least 58 students were killed, including many who were burned alive. They slaughtered them like sheep with machetes and gunned down those who ran away, said one teacher, Adamu Garba.The headline of the article from which I have quoted the above extract is: “Dozens killed in attack on Nigerian school.”
It is at the end of the fifth paragraph that we discover that:
all of the dead were teenage boys or young men.All of the schoolgirls were told to go home and were unharmed.
The Rape Of Language And The Mathematics Of Rape
Trigger Warning For Feminists: May Contain Facts.
By You’ve come a long way, baby. You’ve got the right to vote. You’ve
got the right to keep working even if you get married. You’ve got the
right to go on maternity leave─for 39 weeks at up to 90% of your salary in England.
But now young feminists want the right to do something that is physically impossible: go back in time and erase their mistakes.
Well, you can’t have that right, and not just because Albert Einstein was male.
I recently called drunken hook-ups that girls regret afterwards─but usually not immediately afterwards─“mistake sex.” That prompted some 220 Princeton professors to write a letter to the Daily Princetonian newspaper reminding students who aced their verbal SATs that rape is bad.
The word “rape” has a power to turn even Princeton scholars’ minds
off. When a rape occurs, it is common to hear people say that the suspect─suspect, mind you, not perpetrator─should
have his neck stretched at the nearest tree. We’re not so rash or
bloodthirsty even when it comes to murder, which apparently is a less
egregious crime.Universities, like people, also react emotionally and strongly when it comes to rape, especially in light of the rape epidemic sweeping college campuses (according to the White House), with the #YesAllWomen campaign calling all men weapons of mass destruction.
You’ve heard the statistics: one in four women will be raped in college. Or is it “during her lifetime”? Or is it “sexually assaulted or almost sexually assaulted”? Or is it “nearly one in five”? Or “one in six”? Obviously all these stats can’t be true. Somebody is doctoring the books. They are attempting to change the definition of “rape.”
Over 80% Of Catalans Say Yes-Yes To Independence Vote
The vast majority of people in Catalonia have voted for secession in the region’s referendum for independence amid oppositions from the Spanish government.
Orwellian UK BANNED Press TV: Vice President Joana Ortega said early on Monday that with approximately all votes counted, 80.72 percent of the Catalans have said yes-yes to two questions about the region’s independence.
The two questions that eligible voters were to answer were: "Do you want Catalonia to become a state?" and "If so, do you want Catalonia to be an independent state?"
Over 10 percent of the voters said Yes to the statehood and No to its independence, and 4.55 percent voted neither for the statehood of the region nor for its independence.

“We want a definitive vote. Today we have become stronger as a country. We have taken a huge step forward,” Catalan First Minister Artur Mas said during a press conference before the results, adding, “We have made it very clear that Catalonia wants to govern itself. We want to decide our political future and we have demonstrated that.”
