Context : PhD student suspected of being one of the UK’s worst sex offenders has been jailed for life after drugging and raping 10 women in London and China.
Zhenhao Zou, 28, had filmed his harrowing attacks on his unconscious victims. Only two of the women have been identified and the other eight have yet to be traced.
The Chinese national, who had been studying at University College London, had kept a trophy box of women’s belongings, which included a red lipstick, earrings and different hair bobbles and clip-on hair extensions.
>Zou replied: “Don’t push me, it’s pointless … The sound insulation here is very good.”
>…spoke of liking pornography in which the “females are passive and unresponsive during sex”. Asked why, Zou replied: “I like it because the girl appears to be still and quiet when they are having sex.”
This is sick. Hopefully, authorities will continue to investigate with consideration for potential murder victims.
Something else that stood out to me was:
>Commander Kevin Southworth, of the Metropolitan police, assured any [potential victims] they would be treated with “empathy, kindness and respect” if they came forward to police.
Why can’t all women be treated with “empathy, kindness and respect” when reporting sexual assault? Why can’t that be the fucking default‽ How many women tried to report him but were ignored and retraumatized by the police? Think of how much sooner this guy would have been caught if “empathy, kindness and respect” was the default when dealing with victims of sexual assault!
The sickest part is that’s likely not how many women he’s raped over his lifetime by 28. That’s how many women they could prove beyond doubt while in the limited time he was in UK. It was how many keepsakes they could currently locate. It was how careless and brazen he had become after getting away with his crimes. How many women didn’t want to go to the police lest they be re-victimised via a cruel judicial process? Let’s not forget the rape case in Belfast where the victims knickers were held up as evidence of her consent to sex. He cannot be rehabilitated. He should have to serve multiple sentences of 24 years for each of his rape survivors. No concurrent sentencing for sexual crimes! He shouldn’t be eligible for parole. He deserves to rot with no mercy. This is why we choose the bear.
Of course there’s people victim blaming on social media 😒
I think men do this because they find the rapist’s actions more relatable than any sense of empathy they have for the victim, so they’re compelled to be defensive about it.

How refreshing to not read ‘received no jail time because judge did not want to tarnish his bright future’
