Could you imagine if this was a teenage boy and a young girl? (x-post from r/WTF)

I don't think a child (boy or girl) should be "groped" by any man or woman. Yet our society says a boy should consider himself lucky to get any attention from a woman and a girl should scream rape at a first glance from a man. Although this instance could be perfectly harmless, not all are.

Upvoted. Hopefully their parents, employers, religious leaders and this kid's teachers can see just how cute and funny this photo is

MsManifesto · 2013-07-06T05:41:07+00:00

It's already creepy without the need for the gender roles to be reversed. Hot damn this is just weird.

And then the mother is shocked when she is called into the principles office for doing what he learned from those girls to his fellow female classmates.

Honestly some of the responses here are glaring evidence of why deep down, feminists and manospherians operate from the exact same worldview and are both, on issues such as abused men and boys, blatant misandrists- spouting virtually the exact same arguments.

I have double standards, if I was that kid I'd be in heaven.

Weldz · 2013-07-06T08:03:52+00:00

I'm not saying he's being raped, but at that age all I wanted was for girls to touch my weiner (that exact wording), and once or twice I did and it was allllll right. Societal programming you could say?

...I think it's creepy and gross either way. Just me? Ok then...

ABabyAteMyDingo · 2013-07-06T09:46:40+00:00

A male colleague had his ass slapped recently. By the much older female head of HR. Can you imagine the other way around?

Of course I work in a 90% female organisation, sexism and misplaced political correctness is rampant. All in one direction.

macarthurian · 2013-07-06T02:29:07+00:00

My big question is, who does the arm belong to in the corner of the picture?

Monkits · 2013-07-06T07:48:56+00:00

Totally thought this was /r/cringepics

lookingatyourcock · 2013-07-06T06:16:36+00:00

Wow disturbing :(

MegaMaverick · 2013-07-06T08:17:52+00:00

As much as I agree the double standards suck, I'd say good to the kid. I certainty know at that age this would of been fucking awesome.

TracyMorganFreeman · 2013-07-06T06:58:29+00:00

This photo has been around a while. My memory is a bit rusty, but aren't those supposed to be his sisters?

havabeer · 2013-07-06T07:15:38+00:00

Methinks maybe there needs to be a r/doublestandards.

Theophagist · 2013-07-06T08:27:31+00:00

Additionally I think we need to take special care to teach our children not to be obnoxious tongue wagging idiots.

sacky555 · 2013-07-06T09:21:58+00:00

The kids right hand! That's a strange hand right?!

lydocia · 2013-07-06T10:09:11+00:00

What makes it worse is that the left one seems like she his sister.

sillymod · 2013-07-06T11:13:51+00:00

This issue has been posted many times.

In addition, it could be considered child pornographic, since it contains minors in sexually suggestive positions (this is why /r/jailbait was removed).

hunter87 · 2013-07-06T06:19:23+00:00

reminds me of a south park episode

fish_finger · 2013-07-06T06:47:24+00:00

If this was the other way around, the male would be prosecuted. None the less regardless of sex, no one deserves to be touched without permission. Its taboo but young adults are highly sexual and this appears to be consensual, so ultimately here a don't think there will be long term harm

willmaster123 · 2013-07-06T06:33:53+00:00

I think the biggest difference is the stigma.

I honestly don't see that much wrong with this because the boy enjoys it, because he is expected to enjoy it.

If it was a little girl and those were older men, she quite simply wouldn't enjoy it because it is expected that that is wrong.

Now, /r/MensRights , are you guys working to change the stigma so that this should be wrong or are you trying to make it okay for a girl to be touched by two larger men? Please, at least understand the basic differences between men and women sexuality, even if there are a few noticeable exceptions.

cutcoguru · 2013-07-06T09:45:24+00:00

There are double standard for a reason. This is why I can't take the MRM seriously

ThePigman · 2013-07-06T04:24:31+00:00

Maybe it's just me, but all i can think is that if it was me instead of that kid in the picture i'd be thinking "Silly girls, what's the point of having your mouths open wide when you're still so high up?"

Wu_Tang_Shogun · 2013-07-06T04:00:26+00:00

I don't see what's up with the whole "age thing". If an 87 year old man, gets with girls/women 60 years younger than him, he's a "Mans Man", an 18 year old boy fucks a 17 year old girl, that boy is arrested. The same goes for women. If an older woman fucks a younger man, shes a "cougar", not sure if the 18 year old girl would get arrested because of how society & the legal system treats them, but you know what I mean. I personally wouldn't have sex with a young child, since they have weird bodies & I have a lot of younger cousins & always see them crying, snot-nosed, shitting their pants, etc., but if someone wants to do it, why not? I'm not saying it's okay for anyone to rape anyone, that seems to be the first argument made against these kind of opinions. But, yes OP, if it was a Teenage boy, touching a young girl, it would be anarchy, the sky would be falling & all that sort of shit.

Revoran · 2013-07-06T04:00:56+00:00

girl on the left looks teenaged, but she is only touching his stomach, and is not being very sexually suggestive. the girl on the right is, but could be much younger, possibly even his age. Girls look older than boys, nothing to see here.
