9. Rape as a corrective action is always wrong.

Scott Walkers recommendation for women seeking abortion is rape as a corrective action. Suggesting that shoving one up Scott Walker's ass is also rape as a corrective action. If one is against rape in general, it is wrong to promote it in any situation. That is what I see here. Perhaps the motivations of those reacting to the latter can be questioned but without more information as to their character and experiences, I prefer not to do so.. i feel this way especially given the fact that men have experienced sexual abuse and rape both in their childhood and as adults. Sure some of them could be covert misogynists but there is no evidence other than a reaction to the scott walker suggestion. For me personally its not enough; objectively speaking
