Louis CK - There is no Greater Threat to Women Than Men

possomsays...

Great stuff.. saw this material live on tour a few months ago. Don't see alot of comics live and then on video, but iit amazes me how every time he tells the stories and jokes it is so natural.. you get no sense he has done it hundreds of times.

Or how to miss the point entirely (yes, even with the sarcasm box ticked).

The great thing about Louis CK is he brings real-life, fact-based problems to the fore, but brilliantly interwoven with comedy. The problem he states here is 100% real: the viewer can either roll their eyes and whine ("aww the poor Good Guys being thrown out with the bath water!", not what is being said btw), or he can think "what can I/we do to change that horrible reality?"

The majority of men don't rape (although an alarming number, ~33%, would if given the chance), but most if not all (and many women too) participate in sustaining a culture where rape/violence against women is an inevitable part of life, when it needn't be so.
One way to participate in this "rape culture" is to dismissively whine about how pointing the problem out is "blaming all men for the dangers of the few".

dooglesaid:

Yes, blame all men for the dangers from a few. Let's reinforce that.
