Player Comments on Don't Get Date Raped!

Don't Get Date Raped is more than another instructive article. It is a gut-wrenching picture of the female experience in the twenty-first century. Without a hint of victim-blaming, slut-shaming, or misogyny, Mizal brings a powerful message to our corner of the Internet.
The poor main character repeatedly has her trust betrayed by the men in her life, who, conditioned by the American patriarchal rape-culture, treat her as if she were property. The references to recent cases and scandals make it only more real for the female readers.

Perhaps my favorite part of this artwork is the powerful scene when date-rape is shown to be not only a white woman's problem, but the problem of those in the Arab-Mexican-American community as well. These topics are portrayed sensitively and boldly.

Perhaps the strongest and most powerful branch of all is when the main character joins the FBI to fight against the patriarchal abusers. She knows that she is strong, she is beautiful, she is a queen, and that she needs no man to protect her and our sisters.
We cannot rest until the number of date-rapes is zero.
Keep smashing the patriarchy, Mizal.

Yeah… well parody stories can be fun! This WAS a parody, wasn’t it? Oh my…

Anyway, nice job with the story and options. It is always nice to read a CYS that actually has options that affect the story. Here the options are clear and after playing a few times, it is clear how the different options do end up giving you different choices. So this is certainly a nice addition to the CYS site.

There are also some nice descriptions of some of the actions you get to take. As a matter of fact, I do often drink my drink with both hands, and like a horse. Except with that path, it was weird, because on the previous page I was actually hoping to get with Greg and after the drugging, well, I did. So I got what I wanted? And do they even make pudding pops any more? But yeah, I have no idea how I got to be an FBI agent, either.

Overall, this is a nice, short, entertaining story about a “socially important” topic or something. Well done!

The most illuminating story in the edutainment section.

Hell, this was even written a few months before the #MeToo movement really got rolling, obviously you are an unsung pioneer in your struggle against toxic masculinity and the patriarchy.

I found this story to be a much better example of dealing with getting date raped than the Date Rape laws and Prevention one. You had lots of scenarios, choices and opportunities for getting dated raped which is really what you want in a story like this.

I also continued to be impressed with how you even had a little fun with the topic while also teaching and stressing the importance of personal responsibility.

You have displayed an incredible amount of ethical writing responsibility by showing the dangers of date rape and have made the world a better place with this story.

I found this petite bit of literature quite humorous. Yes, some could consider it offensive, but the humor was sharp, witty, and well-thought out, albeit a bit redundant with its puns and storyline.

In terms of education, this story didn't accomplish much. All the abhorrent rapists used the same methods to pull off their tricks. Point being, the signs conveying that the protagonist's date was a "sketchy hoe boy" were simply too obvious. The author may have intended to take a direct route with the descriptions and commentaries, so vapid middle schoolers with their screws loose could comprehend it. However, that is its strength as well as its fault. It's simple: "Don't take drugs, alcohol, and free stuff from people, kiddos!" That's overall sound advice I can agree with. On the contrary, this story fails to acknowledge the complexities of trust, dating, connections, and enduring rape itself. Throughout this adventure, not once is there any lasting consequences besides the generic, "This is horrible and I feel awful!" type of dialogue. These emotions discussed earlier on don't play out in the later overarching events. Even though it is up to the player to make a decision, it doesn't make sense for the character's emotions to be silent and ineffectual in terms of the plot. Sure, you have quips here and there but there's no resonating impact, no gravity to the situation at hand, as well as a lack of atmosphere. This story was made to be clean and simple, but establishing a prominent atmosphere and a cycle of emotions would help the reader indulge in the concept a bit more. That said, don't overdo it either. The plot doesn't warrant a D&D level of world complexity. I'd recommend using poignant, bold language, supplemented with unique, but strong metaphors. You want the reader attached to the world, without getting bored of it or feeling overwhelmed by a bulwark of text. That's how you make a diminutive little story that remains memorable even for an underdeveloped gradeschooler. To clarify, I don't necessarily see this becoming an official guidebook to avoiding rape on here, as it does not contain enough detail to earn such a title. In summary, poignant, memorable sentences, bold metaphors, lasting consequences, and realistic emotions will make this work. Maybe even add a tid-bit about what happens later in the character's life depending on the decisions the player made.

Don't get me wrong, I don't hate this story. So far, I'd say that its humor is definitely its strongest point. As a standalone story, it lacks basic elements that make a good book. I just hoped for something a little more fleshed out. On a lighter note, I appreciated the "Rape Date" pun. That earned a chuckle out of me! Overall, a 5/8. Not remarkable, not bad for what it is.

Okay so I feel like this is parody. I can only think it is because of how staged everything is. It doesn't seem to take itself seriously. If this is serious, note how there is no bond of trust before anything happens, even less is there any bond of actual trust being made in the dates. Like this clearly is self aware about how extreme it all is. Right?

I actually liked this...pretty funny too:)

HAHAHA! Such education, ha! I finally know how to treat a woman properly, just give them a date (the fruit)! Just too funny! Edutainment at its best! 6/8

It was ok

Ah

Amazing game... very educational and shows those c*nts (egoistic men) that women aren't mere objects to play with; we are powerful and just as great as men. Really pulls through with the goal of the struggles of women in day-to-day life. Good job mizal :)

Came here from the hee hee interactive story. Thought you’d have a legit story on rape that I could enjoy but I got this educational stuff instead. Kinda disappointed, wish it was more graphic and sexy. Can you make a legit rapey one with a girl with big tits? Thxxxxx

While reading this I flipped between being slightly offended to laughing like an idiot, so I'd say it succeeded in its goal. I also feel very called out by the pokes at "casuals" like me but I mean, it's so true. Thoroughly entertaining and actually made me chuckle.

Got date raped twice and drugged with a date. Anyway, that bitch Ashley should have done something.

It was pretty funny and a good story but the choices were pretty obvious for any human being with a brain. I guess that was the point though...

I find this game extremely offensive! ... It assumed my gender :(

Too sweet. Short and funny. Thanks for writing this story.

What the hell, how did i join the FBI?

I like how the game can go both ways of entertaining and educational depends on the player's mood. Definitely worth replaying. Being an FBI on my second play through is a nice mood booster!

Seemed... boring to me. I mean, it seemed to lack some kind of structure. Could you have added a backstory to it? Because a backstory would give it a bit of structure. Then, maybe some more detail? I know you're always on my ass about details, but here, there seemed not to be enough detail.

This one made me chuckle. My first playthrough I tried to see how many times I could disobey the title but my second playthrough, it was absurdly easy to win and go rape-free.

this really got my noggin joggin

I've seen your comments and such around the site (one of them being on my own newbie cry-for-help post) and in the past few days, I've grown to have a lot of respect for you. So, of course, as a fellow writer and reader, I had to delve into your stories, and this one definitely caught my eye. Honestly? Bless this work. It's a shady world out there, and we've gotta take care of ourselves (and if not that, listen to our friends' wisdom). Such a simple way of putting it, but yet, very realistic.

Basically, you've hooked me, and further impressed me. You'll see more comments on your works from me. :-)

educational, at best

Lol loved the random date rape generator.

Alright
It's ok
But my only problem is that u have to make a 2nd one

Creepy yet humorous satire on a serious social issue. Makes you think.

Unfortunately I got away without being raped. Playing again for a different ending.

So...interestingly, a guy spends two hours reloading the date rapist generator and then doesn't even bother leaving a comment to show off his no doubt ridiculous high score. And yet from all the zeros I see it seems a lot of others aren't finding it at all. I'm still wishing there was some more refined way than just score to track people's play styles or paths in the games here...

Haha good one
It was small but pretty good
I laughed all the way!!

Got the good ending

A good few giggles.
Came for the triggers, stayed for the lulz.

Honestly this game tells you a lot more about the author than anything else

I really enjoyed reading this story. I found it very funny.

Hahahaha, really enjoyed the piece for what it was. I didn't get all the little details I'm sure but I agree with your message about personal responsibility instead of victimizing yourself and how censurship is becoming ridiculous.

I'm not sure what to think, to be honest. As far as writing goes, it is well executed and certainly clever and the mocking tone is evident. However, I'm conflicted as to the target of that tone. Perhaps it's just a wee bit too clever for me. Either way I can respect the skill of the piece if not the content . While not offended, per se, it certainly made me feel uneasy. And if that is the purpose, brava.

Very interesting!

Short but good

Not much story. I guess the fourth wall breaking is okay for what this is, but there isn't much plot here. Funny in a twisted way, though.

Heh.. This really cracked me up mizal. I'd love it if you would add more details though. This was extremely interesting.

I'm so thankful that I didn't get date raped. Woohoo.

I just love the omniscent narrator being condescending with my dumb (probably white) ass, it's fun to experiment the different date rapes (obviously not in real life).

Lol managed to win and never get raped! Unfortunately I'm curious as always to see what happens when I click the other things.

Well written and very tonue in cheek humor, one of the best types of humor.

8/8
WOWSERS!
I always wanted to know how NOT to get date raped!

"Tiny braids of salt and pepper hair frames a constellation of cheek and forehead warts. Grey, intense eyes gaze intensely at you from across the table.

He introduces himself as Mickey King, a convicted sex offender, with the soul of a date rapist.

The conversation is really heating up until he removes his pants and lures you into a high class dog show full of bitches less gullible than you. Before you have any warning, you've been date raped! (Again.)"

The sheer number of people who led this girl into getting date raped is sickening. She's completely at your mercy. After winning the game once, I also successfully managed to replay again and stop her from getting raped by Greg twice. I admit I didn't think Greg would drug the giant drink twice in a row. What a jerk! Either way. The humor was tastefully done, very tongue in cheek, but the message was clear. Well done!

I wouldn't think it was going to be a funny one tbh.

Fun story that didn't veer too far into inappropriateness considering the subject matter. Worth a couple of reads to find different endings.

Someone should post a link to this on the CoG forum.

Alright. I admit I was wrong ! I couldn't resist going through it again, after seeing the other comments you received. Still serious issue, but good Lord it was funny and well-written. I changed my rating from a 3 to a 7.Kudos

I have mixed feelings about this one. The subject of date rape is a serious one,and often ignored. I do think it was way too easy and I don't believe that very many people would read it to fulfill perverted fantasies. Well, I hope not anyway, but that may speak of my naivety. I did enjoy the texting and the fact that you used a different font. Overall it was worth reading. Thank you.

Mizal's symbolism is as rich as it is indepth. The dream sequence, to me, represents an integral aspect of the story I feel many in the comments section evidently missed, hindering their already shallow comprehension to that of gibbering Neanderthals as they evidently stumbled, elephantine, through the subtle je ne sais quoi this chef d'œuvre truly contién... uh, contains.

Ned Master, a retired stamp collector, with the soul of an adorable but not quite housebroken puppy was inspired. gr8 character dev I r8 8/8.

(Jks 6/8 mad ting)

Spoiler Alert: You might get raped

I got raped by Bill Cosby!

This story is excellent and deserves a commendation. The author expertly describes the dangers of date rape and does so seriously and respectfully, so it couldn't possibly offend anyone. The characters are all very realistic and relatable and the story is heartwarming. 8/8, I'd give it more if I could.
If you're worried about the warnings, just ignore them. It'll be fine, I'm sure.

The random generator was an inspired mechanic, bravo on that.

RIP the following, suspiciously familiar people:
Ned Masters
Mickey King
Will Smiley
Buck Rogers
Malkin Alec
Steve Irish
Timmy Theedy

A rather fun read, like Trailer Trash but darker and more flippant, I think the brainless character thing could have been taken beyond repetitive date rape and out into the larger world though, a bit like a dumber version of Mr Bean. Anyway, good fun 6/8

Fantastic! I needed a good laugh.

Lmao hilarious!

lol

This fucking killed me. One of the funniest games on the site right now.
