Men Can Stop Rape has released a new anti-rape campaign, and it’s awesome. Not only does it feature both a gay couple and a minority couple among the posters, but instead of telling women not to drink so much/stay out late/wear something slutty, it simply focuses on stopping rape. It’s the sentiment of “the only way to prevent rape is for rapists not to rape” thing.
Bravo, Men Can Stop Rape. And you should check out their website. They really are a great organization.
I'm Britni, a snarky bitch and generally awesome person. I write about sex, love, and bullshit. If sex-positivity, discussions about BDSM and kink, queer issues, and topics that are completely inappropriate by society's standards make you uncomfortable, then this blog is not for you.
Good Vibes

That is AWESOME.
Fuck yes! This is how you empower people. The only “right decision” anyone needs to make is the decision not to rape someone. If everyone respected that golden rule, this world would be a better place. Thanks, Men Can Stop Rape. Thanks for getting it and propagating a wonderful message.
I LOVE this.
Amazing. These are so much better than the horrible ‘No, please please stop’ posters they have on the tube in London at the moment, they really creep me out. These somehow manage to take something negative and make it into a positive – if that makes sense?

Thank you for this.
Whatever, I can stop rape and earthquakes.
Kidding. These are awesome.
This is the second iteration of these ads; the original campaign, “My Strength is Not for Hurting” came out in 2001. I did a wonderful training with MCSR in 2002; they are a fabulous outfit and I’m glad that they’ve broadened the campaign further to include same-sex couples. Thanks for posting.
