   Girls, if a boy says to you, "Your body, my choice." They've implicitly given you permission to kick them in the balls.

   Or as my husband said, "My knee, your nuts."

   In short, you are allowed to defend yourself from a rape threat, which is what that first statement is.

     I really didn't expect this to take off.

     I generally do not condone violence. However, there are exceptions. If someone is threatening rape with that statement and makes any move that indicates they might follow-through, people need to understand THEY SHOULD FIGHT BACK.

     I was taught as a child to just endure. That's fucked up.

     Fight back any way you can: leave the room, tell a reasonable authority figure, or... beat the living snot out of the scumbag.

     Stop teaching girls to be submissive.
