I have no idea what "modern feminism" means in terms of a specific philosophy that people are referring to when they say "modern feminism." And I agree with magic man. I would also say that it seems more of a silencing tactic that is used to avoid addressing specific points by placing all...
Yeah so after a quick google search I would say she is definitely more radical leaning. Even quotes Audre Lorde who was anti-porn, sex critical, BDSM critical. There is so much radical feminist literature out there that I really need to hurry up and read.
If I take the quote as it is, I would say I agree with it to a certain extent but only when it's balanced. If I'm still oppressed than I can't focus my thinking solely on healing and move away from the context of patriarchy when it comes to my choices and how I'm viewed and treated. I think I am...
I speak to a radical leaning womanist and she did say that the difference between feminism and womanism is that womanism is more focused on healing and she said it's more spiritual. But I need the context of the quote because she could be referring to the black community, and white women do...
If it's led to over 17 convictions they aren't being coaxed. It's the men who start the sexual conversations hunters crew just go a long with whatever THEY say. Some even send the "child" explicit photos. They know what they are doing.
Does not matter. Because in the UK if you send at least 2 messages for the purposes of grooming you are breaking the law. Even if a child doesn't meet up with you you can still be convicted For grooming
This just shows how out of touch you are. I can honestly tell you that a lot of young girls are vulnerable to older men. By basic compliments I mean, you're pretty you're smart etc. It doesn't take much to get a child to hang on to your every word. Some are more vulnerable than others. But you...
let me break it down for you. By me saying that I would have been easily manipulated by an older man that I fancied as a child, you focusing on my psychology instead of the actions of the hypothetical adult man, you're shifting part blame on to the child and therefore taking the stance of the...
It's not my experience because it never happened to me. It's basic sense that the younger someone is the the easier it is to manipulate them. Some people are more vulnerable then others depending on other factors or experiences they have had in their life, but age is a big factor on how easy it...
You need someone to break it down to you that it's easier to manipulate someone the younger they are and that when an adult is seeking out a young teen/child it isn't because they know that young person/child will challenge them and have clear boundaries, it's the opposite, they know they won't...
To be honest I thought this be would obvious to anyone? We could apply this to...I don't know....getting a tattoo, what's the difference between a 17 year old and an 18 year old when getting a tattoo? Getting married without parental consent...what's the difference between a 17 year old and 18...
So you are saying that law enforcement should take into consideration the time between when someone starts puberty and when an attempt of grooming has taken place on them? E.G they showed signs of puberty at 8 years old, was approach by an adult at 12 years old, so they begun puberty 4 years...
Do you know what you are saying? You may not use the word 'justifying' but that is exactly what you are doing by making out that it's not a big deal when the girl looks older and doesn't resist and so girls like that shouldn't be protected by law?
Yes and when those nuances are used to justify the actions of those men it is not meaningful for me to consider them. You said you wouldn't worry about a girl like that because she looks older and didn't resist, therefore you are justifying the actions of those men.
