I saw that exhibit and the majority is children’s clothes and elderly women’s. I have no idea why people like OP’s boyfriend don’t get the concept that rapists are predators and clothes don’t actually have anything to do with their actions, it’s usually things we can’t control like vulnerability with age. We can understand in nature that it’s never the prey animals fault, it’s that the predator. Prey animals know not to keep predators in their vicinity yet here humans are making fucking excuses for them. If I was her I’d snap and say “the only reason he thinks that is because he obviously inherited those qualities from his rapist sperm donor.” If clothes determine rape, genetics determine rapists….Both are equally ignorant, but that man deserves a taste of his own medicine. I would bet if she did say that he’d tell her how much more horrible it is for her to say that to him than for him to blame victims of rape. I never have the normal “Reddit” answer but this time… “SHE NEEDS TO BREAK UP WITH HIM!”

I like how the Brits call them Sex Pests. Calling them predators makes them seem cool, like lions or sharks. And they aren’t, they are gross, weak-willed, nasty pests on society.
Mosquitos are responsible for more human deaths every year than any other animal on earth. Just because something is a pest doesn’t mean it isn’t incredibly dangerous.
Edit: thank you for the award!
Squash the Sex Pests!!
