As I am saying for years: We are mammals. My male dog would rape too. He doesnt because he can not and he will be beaten by the female dog or kicked by the owner (I am telling people to defend their female dog from male dogs in appropriate manner because this will strengthen the dogs trust in them. However I am also saying that when they have same size the female dog should learn to attack him and to get rid of him). All what I am teaching dog owners I do tell mothers. With examples from nature they start understanding how the brain learns and why the male sexual tribe has to be controlled and how important is to put "fear" and "shame" on offenders so that they dont do it. All men I asked what they think what the world would be like if there would be no one watching them told me honestly that that they think that their sexual tribe would win without punishment or fear. And I asked 100s of different men from different countries and ages. So when women get rid of their patriarchosis the issue will become much less. As it is in matrifocal, original human groups. And the men there are not unhappy.
'When you are thinking about the problem of sexual violence, think bigger. Look around you. See adverts, music videos, porn, upskirting, forced marriage, laws, policies, campaigning, imagery, film plots... you live in a sexually violent society that celebrates forced sexual activity and the objectification of women and children.'
Question is who are the entities creating the sexual objectification of women and children, the entities normalising and promoting sexual violence against women and girls? It is not women and girls who created 'the sexual objectification of women and girls' but no way must men be named as the ones responsible for ensuring their male supremacist society is one wherein males are told women exist to be mens' disposable sexual service stations.'
So this is why men delight in creating and supporting so-called education of women and girls in how to somehow magically protect themselves from the mundane normal males who enact their pseudo male sex right to inflict male sexual violence on women and girls. It also ensures men collectively and individually are never held to account for their male choice in sexually preying on women and girls. Ir's a win win for the women hating males and nothing changes.
Putting the focus on men and their actions would immediately cause a huge mass male hysteria because no way must men be held to account. No way must men's male supremacist legal system change, no way must men and their malestream mass media be held to account for normalising and promoting male dehumanisation of women and girls. This is what real feminists have been saying for decades - nothing will change until we begin to name men as the perpetrators and hold men to account for their decisions to inflict male violence on women and girls.
I believe educating and creating a system where police officers can do the duty of protecting the citizens would help. It would help the vulnerable people(thieves,rapist,bullies) to think twice of their steps and the consequences following it should stop them from acting on just their futile beliefs.
Although I agree Jess point to educating an already active rapist on their actions is not a solution, every society has to take steps to make things better for the next generation. We need to ponder, research, educate and unlearn. Do everything possible to make it better!!
I don't know if I agree with this. Your education helped me with some things and helped me not feel guilty for the way I felt and ending things with my ex. It made me realize that going back to him was keeping the cycle going and although he might not change, I could leave and not put up with it anymore.
Significant portions of this blog are inaccurate and dangerous to spread. Education is a key element in sexual violence prevention. Education has prevented sexual violence, including rape, and it will continue to do so.
This has been proven hundreds of times through academic research. I have also experienced it firsthand as a survivor.
I do not have enough time to refute every single inaccurate point made in this blog, it would take hours.
There are definitely some accurate points made as well! I agree with a lot of the critiques of prevention education. Unfortunately, those few accurate statements have been weaponized to make sweeping generalizations and an overall conclusion that is wholly unsupported by fact. The small benefit from the accurate statements is significantly outweighed by the harmful inaccuracies.
There is a reason this blog doesn't have citations, sources, or even hyperlinks to support its claims.
Dr. Taylor, I truly hope you realize the harm this blog will cause. I'm sure that was not your intention. Respectfully, remove this blog before it causes more harm to the industry and your reputation.
TL;DR: This blog is inaccurate. Prevention education can be effective at preventing sexual violence.
Thank you! This article is brilliant and a life saver for a target plauged with self doubt. It is a valuable and healing article and I am keeping it close! You're amazing.
1000% every word of this. The people that continually failed my child and that fail so many children and adult victims were/are the ‘educated’ people. Also from a L&D perspective, only 10-30% of training gets transferred into action on the job. So while it should be common sense that any professional dealing with victims of abuse and trauma should be trained, you can’t assume training will lead to protective behavior. We also need to address all the areas where child abuse is legal. In 19 states in the US, it is legal for ‘educated’ school professionals to assault (paddle) a child. Yet none of the major child abuse organizations promoting prevention education address this or the many other ways child abuse is legal. As you said, the problem is much bigger than is being addressed. Thank you so much for this!!
Such a great article. I teach children under 5 and up to 11 years old and it’s really obvious to see the lack of boundaries they have for their body with each other and with their teachers. Children are treated like public property by their parents and teachers for such a long period of them growing up. It’s no wonder we as adults make choices to touch bodies when we want (rape and assault). I truly believe it starts with how we treat children. That and our very sexualised society that we KEEP presenting to the each other. Social media would have been such a great tool for highlighting harmful behaviour, now it’s just showcasing people abusing their children for entertainment simply because adults enjoy hurting somebody physically weaker than them. It’s really really sick.

"SELF-DEFENSE CLASS"....NOOO!!!
any response to abuse whose focus is not on the behavior of the perpetrator equals victim blaming and contributing/enabling/promoting the problem

per always, thank you
