You're acting like it's a useful point to be had. Everybody who already was a fucking 14 year old and isn't ace already knows that. It's not unless your trying to suggest it should follow a specific conclusion. 14 year olds can and do also want to drive, smoke, skip school, use explosives, and drink. Preferably all at the same time. Since your conclusion is transparent, well...
That's why we can't have the discussion. Anyone trying to bring it up in any context gets accused of pedophilia. Even when there is a legitimate point to be made.
In this case iirc the point was about infantilizing women of all ages and the negative impacts of the madonna-whore complex and how pretending women have no sexual desire is actually quite misogynistic.
But yeah. Nope, forbidden topic. Insta ban. At least they didn't make it permanent.
If you want to make a point that doesn't make people fill in sentences for you, I'd recommend against being vague.
My point was that it's impossible to make the point because people are hysterical.
I expected downvotes but did not anticipate the mods also being hysterical.
You didn't make a point. You vaguely said that it's taboo to say teenage girls have a sex drive (which hilariously, it isn't: see the popular books, TV shows, and movies regarding that).
My ban disagrees. All the downvoters disagree. The guy so butthurt about something else I said that he decided to brigade me here on a totally unrelated topic disagrees.
Ok so you made a point that people get hysterical when you start making suggestions that lead to pedophilia. What was the goal in that?
That's the problem. You immediately jump to conclusions and then condemn people for shit you made up in your own mind.
I read your defenses in the other comments. You made no other point
"Nuh uh" is a terrible way to confront reality.
But hey, like I said. We literally cannot have this conversation. You are not emotionally capable.
Edit: plural you
What conversation are you even trying to have? Are you actually trying to discuss how kids can like adults, or are you trying to discuss that we're not ready to talk about the kids liking adults?
I'm asking for like the third time because from your responses, it's still not clear
I'm trying to have a conversation about people reading the article, you brigading bastards decided to comb through the modlog history to dig up some unrelated shit.
Of COURSE my conversation now is about how we can't have the original conversation, I'm not looking for another ban. If you really care, private message me. Or get a mod to confirm I won't get banned again.
You've been at least somewhat respectful in seeking my opinion and I appreciate that, but mods have made very clear this topic is off limits regardless of context. Which, again, there isn't any. This is a thread about work from home.
"Women of any age"
I stand by that statement, and I've reported you for harassment. Not that I expect anything from it.
I never insulted you, all I did was post your own words verbatim, and you say that you stand by those words, so I don't see what the issue is.
What's got you upset specifically here?
This is a thread about work from home. Why are you bringing up something completely unrelated I said, which mods have made it clear I'm not allowed to defend? That's bullying and harassment.
No, this is a thread about the company "Nothing", that makes cell phones. I think you misread the headline.
