where do these sexual assault people come from?

[mtngirl79]

It's a hypothetical. Probably happens sometimes (and ppl acknowledge it's wrong), but mtngirl is more interested in projecting her own poor thought processes on dex than actually having a discussion. As is normally the case, it's shades of truth wrapped in mind-numbing levels of baggage.

Joking about it is not acknowledging it's wrong...

This is proof why this shit happens and why women don't report it and why people like Dexter can easily pretend it doesn't exist.

Your naked picture thread is more important than being sure no woman are harmed via that thread.

It's nearly the exact thing women are told when they report bad behavior... oh, it was a joke. Oh, you took it the wrong way. Oh, he's a good guy. Oh, don't be so sensitive. Stop ruining our fun. Leave if you don't like it.

When you say "people like Dexter" do you mean people who start threads on internet discussion boards to try to better understand the issue? People who act in such a way as to discourage this behavior by those in their presence and therefore don't see it? I'm sure Dexter is no saint, but I'm having trouble picking out which of his attributes you wish to apply to others when you say people like him might pretend it doesn't exist.

You two have a disagreement about the appropriateness and meaning of a joke. Jokes are open to interpretation like that. (Most commonly including whether or not it even was a joke.) Reasonable people can disagree. Really reasonable people try not to fall into arguments that distract them from the point.

[mtngirl79]

It's unreasonable to joke about harming people.

The sneaky naked picture thread needs to go. It encourages harmful behavior.

How many pictures on the Ullr and Part 2 threads were posted by the women in the photos? I would guess none.

These threads are great examples of the juvenile behavior men exhibit all the time. If you say you never see it, take a tour of those two threads. This is your community. The attitudes of the men who post in those threads or just like to look, whether they realize it or not, exemplify the societal problem of how men treat women. It’s not an equal playing field. Men post sexual pictures of women, claim the women consented, and proceed to exhibit the behavior of adolescent boys with the Victoria’s Secret catalogue.

And then, think about statements like this:

You know some women aren't ashamed of, or overly sensitive about, their sexuality; Good looks and perky tits are fleeting, some want to show them off before they're gone.

or

Presumptuous. Take a lap, dick punch.

Most guys on this board are decent people, probably including the poster quoted here, but it’s time to stop justifying this nonsense by sayin “I’m sure they consented and they should be flattered to know that strangers get off by looking at photos of women on the Internet.”

I dont care or want to know whether men think my breasts are perky. it’s not empowering or flattering.

Now, I’m waiting for the self-entitled men on this board to try to intimidate me for speaking out. I should just shut up and let you see my tits. That’s how it works here, right?

Ill just start another one.

You could always leave the free forum that you seem to hate so much.

No one is making you stay here. Even though I did give you money which could be like feeding a stray cat.

Nah. Your wrong.

My wife knows and doesn't care.

Me taking pictures of my wife and posting them does fuck all to society. Calm the fuck down. Jesus.

Id suggest taking a stroll though Instagram someday and see what women are posting.

FIFY. I don't disagree with your overall point, but you can't have it both ways by making men who don't engage in the behaviors you object to responsible for policing others because, in most cases, they aren't involved at all. Ignoring a thread on TGR is like ignoring a lot of the rest of the internet. Sometimes it's just the right thing to do.

Freedom.

Freedom to not have your naked picture taken secretly and posted online for the sexualised entertainment of other people, unless you consent.

Sad how the freedom of one woman is valued less than the freedom of a group of men.

Sounds weirdly familiar; something from a gun thread maybe? Sorry you don't ski; most of us will be starting soon and it's going to help.

Sweet post dude.

Sweet post dude.

Truth hurts.

[jono]

Truth hurts.

Does it though? I've watched you defending your position in other threads and even seen your original position taken up by some dude named James and as far as I can tell it's usually not the truth that hurts anyone. Is that different in this context?

Just shut the fuck up.

You said I don't ski.

I am in fact better than you. I promise. Now fuck off.

[jono]

No, I said it was too bad that you don't. As in currently. It would help.

Self-reflection is the only time bobby stainless doesn't beat you.

At least we have derailed the thread about TGR being full of "Sexual Assault People"...

Give me a fucking break.

Men like boobs and vaginas. Except gay men... They like dicks.

Hope this helps.

Just like everyone ignored Harvey Wienstien?

Sorry. Allowing that thread to exist is saying it's ok.
