#RAPECULTURE Shakesville: A Culture of Violent Entitlement, & the Culture of Silence Surrounding It
Ben Moynihan, an 18-year-old British man, has been found guilty of attempted murder after stabbing three women, all of whom thankfully survived his attacks. His motivation for the violence he perpetrated against these women, whom he picked randomly, will be sickeningly familiar:
Ben Moynihan told police “all women need to die” and that he was frustrated with “fussy” women.
Winchester Crown Court heard how in a note he said: “I am still a virgin, everyone is losing it before me, that’s why you are my chosen target.”
…Kerry Maylin, prosecuting, said the defendant left two letters for police. One, placed on a police van, said: “All women need to die and hopefully next time I can gouge their eyes out.”
…He also wrote: “I was planning to murder mainly women as an act of revenge because of the life they gave me, I’m still a virgin at 17. …I attack women because I grew up to believe them as a more weaker part of the human breed.”
Moynihan went on a violently misogynist spree, because he hated women for not fucking him. Because he felt entitled to women’s bodies, and he was angry that they were not giving him the access he felt he was owed.
