Given the influence radical feminists including Julie Bindel had on Keir Starmer when he was the Director of Public Prosecutions, we can predict that a future Labour government led by him will probably remove juries from rape trials.
After winning a ‘Whiny Feminist of the Month’ award in 2015, Charlotte Proudman won the inaugural ‘Toxic Feminist of the Month’ award, here.
Our thank to Mike P for this piece on Proudman’s website ‘Right to Equality’. He writes:
An extract:
“The affirmative consent model puts the onus on the defendant to prove, at the time of the act, the other party actively said or did something to indicate consent had been given throughout the encounter…..”
Hmm, how would a man ‘prove’ that?
A man couldn’t, of course, which is precisely the point. More innocent men going to jail on the unsubstantiated words of women, a feminist objective for decades. Another extract from the article:
World-renowned feminist legal scholar and advisor to Right to Equality, Professor Catharine A. MacKinnon adopts a transformative approach to redefining rape in law. MacKinnon argues that consent is an intrinsically unequal concept and should be eliminated from the law of sexual assault. To redefine rape as the crime of inequality that it is, the prohibited act should centre instead on a concept of force that, beyond physical force, incorporates multiple inequalities of power — such as age, race, disability, celebrity, caste, sexual orientation, gender identity, and sex/gender — when used to coerce a sexual interaction. Instead of focusing on what he did to her or what she ‘allowed’ him to do to her body, the court should scrutinise the context in which sex happened: Was the sex willing, wanted, respectful and mutual?
MacKinnon is an ‘advisor’, here. As you’d expect from a narcissist such as Proudman, the first menu tab is About Us. Here we find this gem in large letters:
We educate, speak up and raise awareness for all suffering violence.
It soon becomes clear, of course, than men (unless gay) and boys are excluded from ‘all’.
We recommend once again Janet Bloomfield’s excellent article from 2014, 13 reasons women lie about being raped.
