So Clint Eastwood is a Rapist in this movie?


It doesn't matter that she started to enjoy it. He took her into the barn with the intention of raping her. He wouldn't have stopped. Therefore he is a Rapist.

D.&D.B.B. - You were yesterday, you are today, and you will be tomorrow.

Now, go have yourself a nice juice box and take a nap.

reply

You think it's okay to teach women a lesson by raping them?

reply

So, if he instead had shot her dead or beat her to a pulp like he did with the men, you'd be OK with that?

reply

Leave the women out of it totally. The women didn't do anything to his dead brother.

reply

We're discussing Eastwood's character, not the murdered sheriff - and by pathetically trying to shift gears and change the subject you demonstrate your inane stupidity and lack of logic yet again.

D.&D.B.B. confirmed once more. Why don't you go back to pining over your murderous slut hero Casey?

Casey is not a slut or a murder. She was found not guilty. Unlike Eastwood's character.

Gender actually is important in this scene. She assaulted him first and was given the opportunity to leave. She continued the verbal and physical assault.

Indeed it was her gender that gave her more leeway than anyone else the Stranger dealt with. If a man had accosted him in the same manner he would have been summarily shot.

The women didn't do anything to his dead brother.


Neither did anyone else in town, at least not directly. But the whole town was culpable in the Marshall's death. Callie however was only one a few who actually assaulted or attempted to assault the Stranger.

You are insane! So you are saying he went easy on her by raping her and not shooting her. So what she slapped him. Because a woman slaps you in the face its gives you the right to rape her?

Yes.

I explained why he did it; I did not condone it.

If you could possibly ever give up your misandry for just a bit you'd be able to analyze things more rationally.

reply

If I could give up my Misandry? I'm a male so why would I be prejudiced against myself? I just have prejudice against rapists. Why did you assume I was female?

reply

I didn't assume you were a woman, I assumed you weren't a man. Misandry has no prerequisite of gender...

reply

You assumed I wasn't a man so you must have assumed I Was a woman. I looked up the definition of Misandry and it it was a predjudice against the male sex. I am male. I have no prejudice against my own sex. I do have prejudice against Rapists. Why are trying to defend a Rapist? Just admit Eastwwod's character is a Raptist and let it go at that. It's not hard unless you like Rapists. Only men can rape women. A woman cannot rape a man.

I understand Eastwood character getting revenge for his brother I just wish the rape had ended up on the cutting room floor. There is no reason for the rape.

reply

I am male.
I do not believe that for a moment.

Could be a just typical modern beta male. Someone low on testosterone from jerking off to porn too much, or for other reasons.

reply

I didn't assume you were a woman, I assumed you weren't a man.


OMG! Funny and so true!!! 





reply

I find it curious that this element seems to bother people more than the fact that in this movie he also plays a mass murderer.

Yes, he's not a good guy in this film.

Because being raped is worse than death.

reply

You really, really are pathetic.

reply

You never been raped so you don't know. I would rather die then be raped.

reply

So, how do you know? After all, you claim to be male, don't you?

Regardless - if I was 20 years old I'd definitely prefer being sexually assaulted and potentially living another 75 years as opposed to being shot/beaten and dying so young.

If you feel differently, so be it, just stop behaving as if your view on such a subject is the only universally acceptable or valid one.

reply

I am male. Men can be raped too by other men like in prison.

I'm assuming you are male too. You would rather be raped in the butt then killed? I would rather be dead then butt raped.

You keep forgetting l  Casey Anthony. 

reply

No, I haven't forgotten your idiotic hero-worship of that child murdering skank, but that isn't an issue on this board.

You really do crave attention - it's so pathetically obvious.

Casey Anthony being innocent and rape being the worst offense on earth are the only two things that concern you.

What a sad, shallow life.

I also love anything Apple.
