We keep an eye on our YouTube account to make sure we don't accidentally miss the fact that we are online superstars. One thing we take note of in this endeavour is the popularity of our videos. We have noticed that our most popular videos have one thing in common. It's not the satirical style nor the production value, it's the fact that we have "rape" in the title and tags.
Our film Safe Blokes is a comedic educational guide based on premise that all men appear or are rapists. We have taken clips out of this and put them on YouTube to keep under the 10 minute limit. These are by far our most popular videos but are the least commented or favourited. This leads us to the conclusion that they are many people out there who believe that searching for "rape video" on YouTube will net them something other than a comedy short featuring three white men (and no actual rape). I don't know why someone looking to source a video of an act of rape would choose YouTube over other less regulated areas of the internet but there you go.
With this in mind we have decided to give out Safe Blokes out to schools, not as a comedy but as an actual guide in avoiding thinking about rape.
God bless you all out there.
Love
Peter
