I’m trying to point out that if you aren’t a rapist, this comic shouldn’t offend you. It doesn’t criticize men - if it said single men are rapists, then I would be upset too and I’m not single. But it doesn’t. Instead it recognizes that women have good reasons to be scared of men, especially strangers, and so long as you’re not one of those reasons, this has nothing to do with you.

The fact that you are so upset kinda makes me think you might be represented by this comic.

if you aren’t a rapist, this comic shouldn’t offend you

So you are calling me a rapist

Now I’m calling you a troll and I’ll save us both some time with a block. See you in another life!

Seems like you're calling everyone rapists because you're projecting. Ew.

Seek treatment.
