      Hey, you think you are being reasonable. You are not. You are deliberately prodding someone who has been traumatised, with their trauma. You are inconsiderate and rude, and if you have empathy you will apologise to the lady for being such a dick.

      If you want to have that discussion, have it with people who won’t be forced to re-live a horrible thing that happened to them. And ask if someone is willing to talk about it before just jumping in with your questions.

          I pointed out what you are doing, politely but firmly. If you think that’s an insult, look to your own behaviour. Personally, I’d be pretty mortified to be a rape apologist too.

          As to respect, show it to others and you’ll get it in return. You weren’t (and aren’t), so you don’t.

              I’ll tell you what: you explain why you think mine is a bad take, and this guy is not a concern troll “jUsT aSkInG kWeScHuNs” and I’ll give you the benefit of the doubt when I read your thoughts. Surprise me.
