Posted by **TypicalGuy** on June 5, 1960 in response to a Pit thread on “I’ve been raped.” Oh, come on now, sweetie. You secretly enjoyed it, didn’t you? You haven’t really been hurt, have you? I bet you were wearing something inappropriate like a short skirt and tight top. When you walk around dressed like that, what do you expect? And what were you doing in that neighborhood? And at that time of the day? I bet you aren’t even a virgin. You probably had sex before. If you sleep around like that, you deserve what you get. If you do go to court, I hope they bring up your unladylike past. No proper lady ever gets raped. Only sluts like you do. ---
