So because I'm a guy I'm a rape supporter?
Good to know.

I think her outlook is that if you do anything that could possibly lead to the objectification of women, that because objectification of women leads to attitudes the promote rape, which potentially increase the odds of rape, that you support rape.Kind of like how one would say "You didn't buy eggs from farms that are free-range, so you're supporting cruelty to chickens" or "You bought chocolate, you support child labour". Or heck, "you endorse the idea of the Easter Bunny, which has you giving your kids chocolate eggs. This cycle of parents having kids eat chocolate eggs keeps cocoa bean companies in business, which allows them to continue to keep children slaves in their fields over in the Ivory Coast, which ultimately promotes capitalism, classism, slavery, poverty, etc., which means everyone who participates in the Easter Bunny Easter stuff promotes these ideals."
Some of her statements are absolute stretches, very vague, and many of them unrelated to rape(and only holding some relation throughh a "six degrees of kevin bacon" kind of way).
That said, while I disagree with her list and much of her comments, I do think that she has some fragments of a point that are reasonable. I just think that her reasoning is rather poor and too far-reaching.
