"how dare people say that being raped to 'correct' their asexuality is corrective rape. only lesbians ever get raped to punish them for not being sexually available." what the hell are you talking about. are you fucking stupid.

transfemme-shelterdog

Are they saying that forcing someone to have sex who doesn't want is isn't rape?

Corrective rape is *literally* rape, it's in the name.

genderkoolaid

They think that because corrective rape was initially coined to describe lesbophobic corrective rape in South Africa, asexuals aren't allowed to use it. One of many completely bullshit beliefs people only adopted to avoid having to admit that the people they were doing a lateral violence to didn't have a point. Its the same as what people are doing right now to trans men; people insisting that forced pregnancy isn't that big of an issue because they can't deny that trans men are affected by it.

Acephobia is written off by acephobes as non-existent or, at most, online bullying, unlike homophobia which involves REAL harm -> asexuals & allies point out examples of how acephobia can be undeniably harmful and targeted at asexuals, such as someone being raped in an attempt to correct their asexuality -> instead of acknowledging that acephobia does involve serious real-world harm, discoursers switch to "well ACTUALLY corrective rape only applies to lesbians, so asexuals are lesbophobic for insisting they can experience it!"

Anyways, the HRW also has said in this report:

Much of the recent media coverage of violence against lesbians and transgender men has been characterized by a focus on “corrective rape,” a phenomenon in which men rape people they presume or know to be lesbians in order to “convert” them to heterosexuality. While the focus on “corrective rape” draws attention to an important aspect of the problem, it also detracts from the larger set of issues fueling violence and discrimination against lesbians and transgender men. A narrow focus on “corrective rape” can give the mistaken impression that only “butch lesbians” are subject to sexual assault, or that rape is the only issue of concern, or that sexual assault faced by a lesbian is qualitatively different from and more serious than sexual assault against a person who is not identified as a lesbian. Local and international campaigns have condemned the practice and state responses have also focused on so-called “corrective rape.”

Most people insisting corrective rape is a lesbophobia-only term would, I imagine, also get mad if it was used as an example of transandrophobic violence, and yet it is very clear that any person taking this issue seriously would acknowledge trans men are targets of corrective rape for being trans men. No one who isn't motivated by reactionary queer conservatism would act like asexuals aren't subjected to corrective rape for being asexual. This is as logically "blood-boiling" as people fuming about immigrants causing the death of Western civilization. Because it is absolutely absurd to act like it matters that only lesbians are ever allowed to use this word because lesbophobia is the specialist worst oppression in the world and no other queer person can ever suffer like they suffer.

this-is-weird-behavior

and on some level it's understandable why people would feel defensive over language like this when their communities are in danger and the issue is under-discussed by wider society. it's a wounded animal response. but that doesn't make it acceptable; we're all wounded animals. it takes nothing away from the struggles of lesbians to point out that another group faces similar struggles.

particularly during ace discourse people would frequently wiggle all over the place trying to requalify why aces might face sexual violence without it being bigotry against asexuals. someone would share their experience and, if the discourser didn't feel comfortable calling them a liar to their face (though sometimes they did) they would say well that's just misogyny! someone would say actually my rapist said directly that it was because I was asexual, and the discourser says well that sucks but it doesn't make it oppression, does it? lots of people get raped. if the person continues to push, or points out that they are not a woman or their rapist was a woman, they are called a lesbophobe and told to just shut the fuck up.

because they have decided already that a certain category of people do not get to have experiences. that no matter what you tell them, your experience is either a) fabricated or b) belongs to a more important category and simply splashes onto you unintentionally. it is epistemic violence that compounds the physical violence faced by "non groups" like aces aros and bisexuals, poly people, and trans men.

Lionel Messi has quietly built relationships with companies and security firms closely linked to Israel's military-intelligence establishmen

As the world’s foremost football star, Lionel Messi is understandably protective of his image. The Argentinian forward carefully picks and chooses whom he is associated with, and has signed lucrative long-term deals with enormous global brands, such as Adidas, Pepsi, and Mastercard. That is why many were surprised when, in 2020, he announced a partnership with OrCam, a relatively small Israeli A.I. firm that makes wearable artificial vision devices (similar to Google Glass). OrCam markets itself as helping visually impaired people live more fulfilling lives. Messi became its global brand ambassador and the face of the company.

[...]

The Argentinian has made multiple visits to Israel during his career. In 2013, he and his club, F.C. Barcelona, went to Israel and Palestine on a supposed “Peace Tour.” During his trip, he met and talked with Netanyahu and President Shimon Peres, and glad-handed with IDF soldiers. He also donned a yarmulke and visited the Western Wall, the holiest site in Judaism. Even after leaving, however, Messi takes a small part of Israel with him everywhere he goes. His security is handled by an elite force of former Israeli agents, who plan his every move, especially internationally. He takes his security very seriously, even missing his sister-in-law’s wedding in Argentina due to safety concerns. Those same Israeli forces were in charge of security at his own 2017 wedding, ESPN reports, although it did not detail whether those agents are from the Mossad, Shin Bet, or an elite commando group.

This is BS that has been debunked a million times. Messi and the Argentina NT refused to play against Israel and Messi went to Israel in a peace tour where he visited Palestine too. Get all the facts from reliable sources, not from sketchy opinion pieces.

hagiomoto

So you are ignoring the fact that he invested a lot of money in Israel-linked startups and has former IOF vets in his security team. Gotcha, you're a zionist too.

Not to mention that his visit to Occupied Palestine is hosted by Zionist settlers and Israel. You're a zionist and I don't argue with zionists.

trylenareborn

Conflating a paid endorsement deal for an accessibility device with "investing money" is factually incorrect, and claiming bodyguards hired from a private agency reflect an athlete's personal political ideology is an association fallacy. Pointing out real context doesn't make someone a Zionist, it just means they prefer facts over sensationalism.

On top of that, MintPress News (and specifically writer Alan MacLeod) frequently uses this narrative strategy: taking baseline facts—like standard private security hires or tech founders having mandatory military service in Unit 8200—and weaving them into sensationalized claims of state or intelligence ties to target public figures, media outlets, and tech platforms.

hagiomoto

Not only that you're a zionist but you're also an idiot.

if you can recognize that "groomers" is often code for gay people you can recognize how the spectre of pedophilia is leveraged against the queer community. if you refuse to recognize it, it's likely due to you not being in the subsection most often targeted by it, but that doesn't mean the rest of us are delusional, it means you're privileged for not being constantly equated with abusers and predators

it's trans women btw

reactionaries refuse to admit that sometimes people transition so they blame it on trans women who must be secretly obsessed with children. that's what it's about under the surface.

and then every interaction with children, enjoyment of things for children, reclamation of lost childhood, or expression of sexuality, fetishes that are common among all demographics, or completely safe kinks, are then taken and leveraged as evidence of child predation. the outcry isn't about these things from a natural reaction to certain behaviors, it specifically comes from politically motivated smear campaigns, and then people who get duped into thinking it's genuine come second. it functionally always follows this pattern

jingerpi

"trans women want to invade bathrooms and prey on women"

clearly obviously bad and bigoted, everyone remotely allied with a progressive cause should understand this

"trans women want to have sex with and prey on children"

suddenly now everyone takes it seriously because "oh! think of the children!" as though it's not the same reactionary fear mongering it's always been over a non-issue because it isn't happening

jingerpi

well there is one other general group thats affected by this predator narrative even more than trans women but they'll kill me if i say it

"Canceling" was also an AAVE term that originally meant "We ain't fucking with this person anymore because they're weird with weird and questionable beliefs" and white people took it and tainted it to mean "You're trying to ruin someone's life, how dare you make someone take accountability for their actions !" like they really thought that saying "Hey this person is racist, maybe you want to think twice before giving them money and support" is a bad thing and that says a lot more about them than it does about us
