jhameiaAdding my voice to the current blogosphere on the disgusting cretin that is Kyle Payne.
I refuse to link to his blog because he's refuse.
Renegade Evolution brings to our attention the evil thing that is Kyle Payne.
Who is this fuck that's got you angry, Jha? you may ask.
Well, this man is a self-proclaimed feminist. He's worked as a counsellor for sexual assault victims, has research anti-porn movements, and basically is anti-porn, because well, I know some of you probably think porn is bad, for a variety of reasons. He, like Robert Jensen, spends his time discussing men's masculinity identity, and educating men on their roles to combat the culture that advocates sexual violence.
He sounds cool on the surface, doesn't he?
Well, the man is a rapist.
Using his authourity as a resident advisor, he broke into the room of a female student while she was unconscious, assaulted her, and photographed her, without her consent.
Through investigation it was found that Payne, on January 3rd of 2007, was serving as RA for Buena Vista University when he attended to an intoxicated 18-year-old female student in her dorm room. He allegedly physically assaulted her while she was unconscious and video taped the act and downloaded the images onto his laptop.
Another newspiece on him:
In documents filed with the court, Payne agrees that "with an intent to arouse my sexual desire, I photographed and filmed Jane Doe and her breast without her consent." A portion of the plea agreement stating that Payne was of sound mind when the incident took place in early 2007 was stricken from the document, leaving only the portion where Payne agrees that he is currently of sound mind.
Students and staff from BVU weight in here.
RenEv has more linkage to different places discussing this asshole, if you're interested.
Jeff Fecke from Shakesville identifies why this is so problematic:
People often misread the statement "every man is a potential rapist" to mean "every man is a rapist," or "every man would rape if given the chance," or "every man wants to commit rape." That is not what the phrase means. What it means is that because of the way rape culture operates, women must identify every man as a potential rapist, knowing full well that most aren't. Because rapists don't hang signs around their neck proclaiming themselves as such, because rapists don't act like evil bastards all the time, because rapists indeed can comport themselves as friendly, helpful, even feminist, women must be on their guard until they believe that they have learned enough about a man that they can trust him. And even then, it's a leap of faith, as anyone who's experienced acquaintance rape can tell you.
