Is long past becoming boring. Focus your energy on people that have actually committed crimes if that's what you want to do with your life and leave people that have be fairly tried to get on with their lives. There's a lot wrong with pursuing people based on your own I'll informed opinions, ignoring any evidence.

Mrs Shuttleworth wrote: » I was in college in TCD with a load of these types and the atmosphere in the class was toxic.There's tremendous pressure on women to be sexually active, at all ages but particularly in the late teens/early twenties to keep up with the gang and the belief that if don't you won't find a partner later on. I'm convinced that that period contributed in no small way to me becoming asexual in adulthood and I don't find men sexually attractive at all now. This case and what has come out reinforces that belief. The only fault of the girl here is being stupid enough to sleep with such muck in the first place.

Olding who was receiving oral from the same girl claimed he couldn't see what Jackson was doing. I reckon "couldn't see" was a sort of play on words as he probably wasn't looking but was quite likely 100% sure there was penetrative sex going on. Jackson perhaps stuck to the didn't ride her line as if there's no sex there can't be rape, IMO

From casually browsing my Twitter feed a couple of times it's overwhelmingly in support of her and no calling her a liar or a slut. Before you dive in with an example I'm not saying no one said it, but the vast majority of people making themselves known are I believeher ****.
Assetbacked wrote: The possibility that she would want to be gangbanged, be penetrated in every hole possible and degraded is non-existent to people. Why? It’s kinky sex; people love it and do not need to feel guilty for it. We don’t know her situation, perhaps her fear of being named publicly with videos and the witness telling people was too strong so tentatively went down the path of “it wasn’t consensual†but then it snowballed. We don’t know though and I’m not spreading that around unlike #IBelieveHer attention seeking ignorant fools who seem to have a proper insight into the girl’s mind. It really is so pathetic and misguided.

What kind of gang encourages everyone to sleep around? Some sort of sex cult? This is the debate we should be having.

Guy:Incognito wrote: » cloudatlas wrote: » you want to normalise it I don't that's the difference. Nobody starts out on the road to being a professional sports person with the hopes of being a role model to kids. At the stage they start they are kids themselves. They shouldn't be forced to take on a role model position against their will just because of their job. Just like it shouldn't be assumed a woman in a traditionally man role wants to be thrust in to the spotlight as the poster girl for feminists everywhere and be made to do it.

A woman cannot rape a man under our current laws(statutory rape not included), the most serious crime she can commit to a man is aggravated sexual assault. 4.—(1) In this Act “rape under section 4 ” means a sexual assault that includes— (a) penetration (however slight) of the anus or mouth by the penis, or (b) penetration (however slight) of the vagina by any object held or manipulated by another person.
