For instance, attempted rape or sexual harassment.

In retrospect, such a revelation seems like it should be obvious. But it isn't! Hooray for human irrationality!

At least, I think that's what I mean to say. It's kind of like when people do sociological studies to figure out something really basic, and laypeople are all "why did you spend money on something so obvious" when they don't realize you need confirmation for things - only this one won't even get a modicum of that that response, because the general public doesn't really give a shit about changing a (sick) status quo.


I don't know if that made sense either. But yeah, fuck jerks.
