Should young girls be taught refusal skills in health class?

Like how to say no, when to say no, that it is okay to say no and not to feel bad about saying no, etc etc?

Wow, yes just put everything on the females, should young boys not be taught to never touch, grope or expect anything from the girls??....


This is just a minefield 馃槺

@SW-User Maybe the assumption he's making is that the kind of ppl who pressure people into sex can't merely be taught not to do so. Essentially, the only way to address predatory people is to defend your own rights. I don't completely agree but it's not an absurd idea on the face of it.

@SW-User it's just a simple question/suggestion, if u feel like u have more to say say it, or make ur own post about it
Nobody's gonna make a life changing decision based on this here, u gotta calm down

@BlueVeins holy crap, we have problems in this world when violence against women is pushed back to the women to be responsible to not be attacked in the first place, gender in equality here we go again..

I'd love to hear your opinion on this if you ever have a daughter!!
SW-User
@Nanori I don't need to do what you tell me. Why do you think that it's your job to chastise me.. Wth really?? I really thought you were more intelligent than this
NanoriF
@SW-User violence against all is pushed back, we're just saying a bit of communicational skill would definitely be helpful in certain situations

@SW-User I don't know why you're misrepresenting me on purpose. I literally just said I don't agree with Emortal's approach, just understand it. And nobody said anything about being "attacked," that's an entirely separate issue.
NanoriF
@SW-User Idc what u think about me, specially seeing how fast you're at attacking others
SW-User
@BlueVeins I'm so sorry, I hit the wrong name to reply to!!!
SW-User
@Nanori I'm not attacking anyone.. 馃槕

thanks for that!

@SW-User oh lol, it happens to the best of us 馃挆 and yeah, i definitely agree that any reasonable response to the problem of sexual assault cannot possibly rely soley on the victim's efforts to avoid being victimized.

@SW-User I agree with you. Why is it put on teaching a girl to say no? How about we teach the boys not to do this in the first place.

@SW-User full agreement with you. This is just coming short of victim blaming.

@SW-User just because a door is open doesn't mean you should walk through it. Innocent until proven guilty; I didn't mention dudes simply because I didn't. Not for any specific reason.

I should have though, if only to stop the virtue signalers and wolf criers.

@iamonfire696 one is far less effective without the other.
