I think the reason people may be downvoting you is that this comment has no reason as to why you disagree. I have not btw. I respect disagreement

Yes, those two whole downvotes really make me lose sleep.

I don't really want to get into it because I can see from your replay that you won't be arguing in good faith, but we'll give it one go. If you start moving the goal posts, changing the subject or cherry picking I'll just block you. Defend what you claim in whole or dispute what I say in whole with non-fallcy fact. If you want to argue, we can debate it, but I'm not going to have your cheesing it.

Everything I mentioned is an observation of what humanity does. It's objective, there is sufficient documentation if it happening in court cases and search fodder. Most of your post is opinion about how you feel in your circumstances and poorly thought out enough that I felt it's better written off than addressed, but let's give it a shot.

"You’re treating the symptoms as the causes dude." this is your opinion, you only offer more opinion to back it up. I disagree, cause and effect are sometimes hard to peel apart. You give a starving person bread. You don't give a rapist access to women talking about sex. Giving a rapist free and open access to women isn't going to cure him. (my opinion, free to debate)

"If people understood more" is an opinion and unfounded. Do you have proof for that? I disagree

"I go to many places where " fallacy, your experience isn't everyone's experience. Same goes for your communal showers. How many cases of gang rape and murder happen? Just because communal shows and bathrooms can exist in some places with some people, doesn't mean that it's good for everyone everywhere. (my opinion, free to debate)

"We are sexual creatures (except ace people), ain’t no two ways about it. " this does not support your statement that we should be more open sexually. Just because we replicate sexually does not mean society in whole can handle it. Evolution provided us reproduction, rape and misogyny, cultural enlightenment made those things bad and wrong. We are all enlightened equally and going back to the stone age to have more open sex isn't going to improve that. We can return to it perhaps once we move along socially, but right now, it's just a horror show waiting to happen.

"Keeping sex taboo does nothing to prevent the problems" then why separate pedo's from children? We do it because it works, we do it because if we don't bad things happen.

"It’s like the Islamic extremists who think the only way to protect women is by taking away their rights, making their beauty a taboo, etc. And still, these places have their own problems with rape anyway, so clearly that doesn’t work." - you insinuate it can't be worse without any proof that it makes it better. Because there is a theft in a neighborhood, one can't say the police and laws are useless.

It’s a mental health problem to be sure and it needs to be handled in society

In my opinion, this is the answer, and just being more sexual is not going to do anything but get a lot of people hurt.

I think it's hilarious how you accuse me of arguing in bad faith then purposely misrepresent my argument to make yours look better not even 10 sentences later. I have benn writing a reply to this comment and I really hope you read it when I finish.
