PROTECT WOMEN IN THE FGC!

Let's cut to the chase. The only way we can really change something in this community(in the world) if the actual victims speak up now and not many years later like in the case of Harvey Weinstein. If you know anyone who was harassed like this, convince them to name the perpetrator and let's find out what happened exactly and take necessary actions. If they don't speak up then these things will keep happening to others and we will open these kinds of topic every few months. They have to take the first step of coming forward and then we can do the rest.

EXACTLY! But it took me a while to understand why people dont speak up on issues like this because they are afraid of the backlash, afraid of guilt of themselves for allowing it to happen, and feeling more disgusted by putting themselves out there like that.

Shit like this has happened to me numerous times. This was years ago but some guy at a club thought it was cool to get up behind while i was dancing by myself. I was NOT having it, and I politely told him "Sorry I just want to dance by myself. Thanks." Then he proceeded to do the same thing 2 more fucking times! The last time, I yelled at him to get the fuck away from me because I said no! He got upset and once I turned around, my ass was on the floor. This muthafucka TACKLED ME BY MY LEGS! So as soon as I got up, I knocked him the fuck out with 1 right hook like HADOOOKEN BITCH! And his ass was in sleep mode. Luckily i knew the security and staff and told them, "It was self defense and ill gladly leave so you wont have to escort me out, thank you!"

My body is mines! And unless i give you permission to touch it, you can't have it! So i feel what all these ladies are saying and sympathize more because they didn't even have control over their bodies by getting roofied, which is a date rape drug. Im glad one of the dudes got fucked up at the party for grabbing a woman under her skirt. Hate people like that.

Hottest thing I ever saw in my life. My wife and I were at a metal show and this drunk bitch comes grinding up on me while my wife was in the restroom. Wife comes back and sees this, and like shot from a cannon lays an old school Batista Spear on this bitch. Shit was awesome. Yeah, don't mess with peoples space, there SO might be lurkin'.

It happens at FGC events a lot more than you think
thats new for me.
then the victims should start to call these people out. apparently they have no issue to do so when it happens on afterparty. why would you hesitate on a tourney. i understand that this is always a shit situation and stuff like that happens fast so having somone who might have seen it to confirm your story might be hard but when someone does something to you which you dont like you shouldnt let it slide. you let that person get away with it, he will do it again on someone else.
 
girls, no offence, I love pretty outfits on you as much as the next dude, but protect your integrity and dress modest out if you aren't in a safe space with a safe route home.

Sounds pretty stupid when you replace "girl" with "guy" huh?

Just want to say while this is bad, guys get drugged, abused and/or robbed too. It's not just at these events but life in general, I live in NYC and hear these stories all the time sadly. Girls getting roofied, sexually abused and Guys getting drugged with the intention of women fooling around with them but they drug the men and literally rob them taking their jewelry, watches, money, CC's etc. Both are fucked up honestly.

I don't think anyone should be drugged regardless of gender, race, etc definitely not cool. Also, just a helpful piece of advice for both men and women, ALWAYS bring your drink with you. To leave it with people you don't know that well is just asking for something bad to happen, I would never do that if I had a kid, teen, college aged son or daughter I'd stress that shit on them whatever you do, NEVER leave your drink unattended, take it with you or get a new one you know you'll finish or take with you.

ay, to you ladies out there, bit of advice. Go take a few lessons from a martial arts class or something, a REAL class, not one of them specifically designated women's self defense classes cuz its been proven to not be all that effective. Put a couple of these fools asses on the ground and more people might start thinking twice once they hear about it.

While yes this kinda stuff shouldnt be happening in the fgc, at any sort of party or large gathering, there's always gonna be a chance of someone acting like a douchebag.

people are awful what can i say.

If I'm Fedora guy, then you're a 90's era Hot Topic Edgelord.
Honestly though your post sounds good on paper but your entire idea loft is flawed. If it is my responsibility to help all man kind then should I give my entire life savings and home to the homeless. To what degree am I responsible for helping all of mankind. In what ways do you help all of mankind? If you want to play a game of ad hominems I can do that all day because you have posted your picture in your profile and happen to look like a human thumb. You’re just guessing what I look like. Tell me how is a human thumb from Detroit mighty enough to help all of man?

You do what you can for who you can to the extent that you are able. I cannot save the world, I can be a good neighbor, coworker, husband, customer, etc.

What?
Never seen a guy wear an extremely revealing outfit to a party and get harassed by morons.

You almost made sense.

You do so because it is righteous and you want to do so. You aren’t obligated to. The best thing a person can do is help society but those people are noble because they choose to do so and are not obligated. In what way am I and the rest of the FGC obligated to help women feel safe. If a woman is unhappy with a man do I attempt to bicycle kick him? I said that everyone is responsible for their own safety I didn’t say how. You can travel in groups (which yes is still being responsible for your safety) stay in areas with light in them and because you’re in Texas carry certain weapons (pepper spray) for if things get hairy. Don’t accept drinks from strangers. The problem isn’t telling edgy jokes like James Chen thinks but hey I’m partisan. Just a 90’s edge lord. Unless individuals take action to protect themselves they won’t be safe. Telling people off on TYM does very little.

if you see someone bleeding on the sidewalk, do you just drive past them?

Apparently, there was an EVO official afterparty on Sunday like they have every year. I didn't end up attending cuz on my way there.....kinda met a really awesome guy ;)

BUT THATS NOT THE POINT! I kinda wished I went because a lot of bad things took place that I could have potentially helped. I'll just post these receipts first.







James Chen hit it on the nose. For ALL these things to happen on the same fucking night under one venue is fucking disgusting! I'm a proud Mama's boy (bless her soul in Heaven) and been raised to treat people the way you want to be treated. Been raised not to assault women. PERIOD! And If I would have saw that shit, then I would have been the person to fuck up whoever put their hands on a woman. Don't let the gayness fool you cuz this limp wrist will turn into a fist real quick! Very upsetting to hear all these stories and the crazy thing about this is there's more tweets about similar instances that happens at the same party but this is the most I can find as of now.

If you see something, I don't givAfuck who it is, SAY SOMETHING! SAY NAMES! Apparently there are names of known pros who did this shit but are being protected. And that makes me sick to my stomach.

We as people, need to do better in the FGC to prevent this from happening in the future because everybody must feel welcomed into the scene including all women! PROTECT WOMEN IN THE FGC! They are a part of us too!
I was there. The people that saw something, did something. A guy got his ass whopped and escorted out by cops for reaching up a girl's skirt. The problem is no one saw the mass roofie epidemic culprit, so my boy Tong Lee got his drink spiked that was intended for his female friend before they switched. Thankfully for her sake they did, because his tolerance is ridiculous and he was visibly shaken, so I can't imagine what would have happened to a smaller female.

Whoever did it is definitely a scumbag, but the best course of action to protect yourself is to watch your drink intently, male or female, and act like it's gone when it leaves your hand or eyesight. My mom taught me at a young age that people drug drinks at college and adult parties, so this is always the safest way (besides the obvious not drinking at all) to avoid that.
