re: #418 Sergey Romanov

It depends on context. There’s usual smug male “she should just dress modestly” hostile/domination advice thing. And there’s “when you’re in a hostile environment, try to blend in and don’t stand out” friendly advice thing. If I say that it would be wise for the woman journalist who was raped on the Tahrir square to wear Islamic garb (considering the male contingent that gathered there), I’m not implying that she is to blame for what happened, yet I’m saying that this might have been avoided.

One my most favorite scenes in “Forrest Gump” is when he punches out Jenny’s boyfriend at the Black Panthers meeting.
