@jesseclain @suninshades the pressure is social, and what's the relevance here? did the piece claim that most rapists have $10,000 in liquid assets? (no.) did it claim that rape victims who didn't ask their rapists for cash are bad or wrong? (no.) so why go into the upsides? — PolitiTweet.org

i mean, are children raped by priests whose families then settle with the church for thousands or millions of dollars luckier than children who are raped by family members? i just have a hard time coming up with a good use for that question — PolitiTweet.org
