Heartbreak & Heroines
Kynn created a RPG called Heartbreak & Heroines, and used Kickstarter to get $3000 in funding in 48 hours. Over on LJ, Jack posted his response to his ex's success, in two minds because he's glad someone he knows did something cool, Kynn raped him. A couple days later, alexandraerin posts as well, expressing dismay at Kynn's behavior.

Jack posts Tweets from Kynn and later, emails,. At some point, the Kickstart for the RPG is canceled.

Some responses are laudable. Others, not so much.

ETA: Kynn tried to get a new name on RPG post-ban.

ETA2: Elf has a post about it.

ETA3: Kynn denies the rape happened.

"A true feminist simply sees the female gender as superior to the male gender. Females are also seen as not limited by anything. They're smarter, more clever and better at whatever they choose to do. "

Of course women shouldn't be limited by pesky things like consent, that would just be oppressive.

My god, where do these people come from, so I can make sure never to go there?

	I have a general do-not-engage rule when it comes to people who refer to human women as "females". So far it hasn't steered me wrong. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Yep. These people might be rare, but... they're not actually a figment of bastards' imagination, sadly. (Reply to this)(Parent)
