Reply to comment by EliteKnightOscar in TIL that Evelyn Nesbit, dubbed "the world's first supermodel" became known for her involvement in a feud between her husband Harry Thaw and architect Stanford White who drugged and assaulted her age of 16, this led to Thaw murdering White inside Madison Square Garden in 1906. by TopAbies9056

You hit the nail in the head

"she would still have been a virgin if Stanford White hadn’t been around."

-an actual quote of his according to Wikipedia

Oh and

“Thaw, whose persona took on a dimension she had never before seen. Manic and violent, locked her up and beat her with a whip and sexually assaulted her over a two-week period.”

Hypocrisy at it’s finest, killing someone who did the same shit you did.

He didn't care about the sexual assault, he was upset he didn't get to take her virginity. Absolute rat fucking bastard.

He was actually way worse, considering the other guy drugged his victim, so she wasn't consciusly aware of what happened and he did it "only" once.

Just chiming in as a reminder that there’s no “better rape” and being “drugged” doesn’t make being raped OK because you “don’t remember it”. Ignorance seems like bliss but no rape is bliss so let’s remember to not minimize victims or lead men to believe they’re “doing us a favor” by drugging us first.

Well, duh! Of course no rape is good.

There is still a huge difference between waking up once from something you can't even remember and being subjected to psychological and physical terror and pain fully conscious for two weeks straight. Which is what her husband did to her.

The guy swho drug women are also not doing it a s favour, they are doing it because they are cowards who don't want a fight.
