john?

Sorry love, I was only joking! Please don’t leave me!!

I thought for the moment that Patrick comment is a windup, but now I am not sure, afraid this could be real.
Michelle comment is taken out from Medieval too, particularly weird as it comes from woman, I heard similar opinions before, but this was mainly from not-so-alright men.

Well said Mel.

Thanks!

This app seems to encourage rape. Not good.

@Michelle

That sounds like something the Taliban would come out with.

I admire you and the Taliban in equal measure.

i would just like to congratulate michelle who has just won the most ignorant comment ever posted on the journal award. it takes some doing because there are a lot of idiots on here but my god michelle you deserve the accolade. you are a disgrace to women and should show some shame in what you have said. ignorant fool.

To get a date….. Yes.

There is no logic to your insinuation that what I suggested is that telling a lie leads to deserving to be raped, BUT, it most certainly does open he door to negativity. I think rape is negative, don’t you?

Lies do not cause rape any more than short skirts do. These things are merely excuses for sexual predators to blame and for the religious and prudes to scapegoat. We need to look at what causes rapists as opposed to the act itself. And the answers will certainly not be as simple as clothing or apps.

Haha. Comedian Patrick just keeps on giving.

Why would you ask Michelle if she’s ever been raped? That is shockingly rude. What does her sex life have to do with her feelings about slutty dress, etc? Please don’t let your emotions get in the way of an intellectual discourse on the issue as to WHY rape happens. It has been proven time and time again by sociologists and law enforcement specialists that rape often happens because girls dress in provocative attire thereby passively seducing predators who subsequently have sex with them against their will. Furthermore, the suggestion that more rape occurs in the church than in gen-pop ( general population) is ludicrous and blasphemous!

At no point did I ask Michelle if she’s ever been raped. Back under your bridge there Pat like a good fella.

Most people are aware if this type of “rescue” app so the notion that you might be able to fool an “unsuspecting” first date that you received an emergency call is just silly. The fact is that even trying to employ something like this could prove to anger a man who might otherwise have had a fun date. By upsetting him, the door is now wide open for a sexual assault. We shouldn’t be surprised however that an app which essentially turns you into a liar also precipitates the rape experience.

Patrick: how many women are dating rapists to fall into risk of being raped using this app? Then do you really think if that was a rapist he would accept a no no, even if it wasn’t to the app, but to genuine refusal?
Finally this app is a bit of craic I suppose and nothing more, most mature dates would have more serious and genuine resolution either positive or negative, rather than faking mamas broken hip, Id think so!

It’s naive to think that only “rapists” commit rape. Most men are capable of rape. This has been proven time and time again by psychologists and sociologists. Even the kindest, most sensitive man, given the right circumstances and encouraged by Satan can be coaxed into committing rape. Rape is perhaps the most extreme form of self-expression as vile as it may seem. There are those, including women who have come to know that rape is often a gateway to liberation. Do not confuse what I am saying with condoning a horrific crime, but also please understand that rape is an ancient practice and was not always frowned upon like today. The rape fantasy is a known commodity in certain circles and the subconscious rape baiting of normal men through something as seemingly benign as an app is the work of dark forces. Rape is as much a part of modern life as love. Sad but true. Come back to the church!
