BNP candidate sacked over ‘rape is a myth’ blog | News
On 24 August 2005, Mr Eriksen wrote on the blog: “I’ve never understood why so many men have allowed themselves to be brainwashed by the feminazi myth machine into believing that rape is such a serious crime … Rape is simply sex. Women enjoy sex, so rape cannot be such a terrible physical ordeal.
“To suggest that rape, when conducted without violence, is a serious crime is like suggesting force-feeding a woman chocolate cake is a heinous offence. A woman would be more inconvenienced by having her handbag snatched.”
On 5 November 2005, in an item entitled “Give her a slap!,” Mr Eriksen approvingly quoted Noel Coward as saying: “Some women are like gongs – they need to be struck regularly.” On 24 November 2005, Mr Eriksen wrote that mothers “should never go out to work” and described career women as ” unnatural and vile”.
Mr Eriksen said the comments were simply “in order to stimulate debate”.
Here’s a picture of the guy:
OK, whatever. This guy is brain-dead, clueless, a right-wing attention-whore, shockingly sheltered and childishly provocative, all at the same time.
He makes a claim that rape “without violence” isn’t such a big deal. Hello? There is no such thing as rape without violence. Duh. There may be rape with varying degrees of violence, and some of it may not involve having the ever-loving shit beat out of you, but there’s no option for “sticking your parts into someone else’s parts against that person’s will” that is NOT violent.
He can keep telling himself that “date rape” is better than “stranger rape” so he can keep jerking off to his fantasies of attacking every woman he knows – none of whom would sleep with him for any amount of ready cash.
I don’t know whether to hope this is just Ann Coulter style grandstanding (seriously, can’t you see her saying the same thing?) or that the guy is just bitter and lonely and ugly and confused. No one seriously believes that kind of thing, do they?
