If I am going to be honest, w/o offending anyone who thinks contrary to my point of view, but also by looking into this matter from a distinctive perspective; since most of the accusations revolve around alcohol.
By the subtlity of the saying "prevention is better than cure,"
Why don't we try and drink responsibly especially around people we don't trust ?
Why don't we try and follow the right protocols for seeking justice by reporting these cases instead of shaming these people online ? Bc, then what ?
Drey has a good point where he said,
How long until we/you go back to hanging out w the same people you say took advantage of you ? Bc FOMO !?
I mean, while we try to call out the disgust, trauma and animosity for lack of better words that come with rape, why don't we also take steps to avoiding these situations ?
My view(s) is based totally on the few allegations that have showed up on my TL where all of these awful acts happened, involved alcohol. I know for a fact that alcohol impairs judgement and that is why we have us drunk driving bc we think/feel we're not too drunk not to drive.
Our emotions over the roof when drunk. We're basically out of touch with reality. Heck we even forget past events. Yaani, we're just not ourselves. And while all this is true imo, it's not certain that it's always the case with abusers. How do we prove that then ?
You're right, it's hard ! So pls don't let the fear of missing out, and a few free things (not saying this is necessarily the case) come at the expense of your life and obviously mental health. Because the truth is, nobody is ever going to live a normal life after such an event
In their lives.

I understand people have different opinions and i respect that but this is mine. So again,
"PREVENTION IS BETTER THAN CUTE." And that's on everything.
