In Italy, you basically cannot be raped if you're wearing jeans...

faineemae:

alwaysdream:

“The Supreme Court of Appeal in Rome on Wednesday overturned a rape conviction, saying that the supposed victim must have agreed to sex because her jeans could not have been removed without her consent”

Victim blaming and slut-shaming need to come to and end. Now.

Basically, the argument is that “Jeans are too difficult to take off, therefore a woman obviously had given consent before taking her jeans were taken off, so it’s not rape.”

NO, FUCK YOU.
