I gotta say, seduced is one of the most soft ass bullshit words for this ever. Rape is one of those words where only dark comedians will use it for their material, everyone else it is a flat out harsh word. We apply it to make sure we convey a bad experience even when not in the sexual sense.
Lets try seduced "My eyes were seduced by the HDR of that OLED" sounds like a TV I want to buy! Now lets try rape "My eyes were raped by the HDR of that OLED" That makes it sound like my retinas were fried out. Another example "I couldn't help but buy it, I was seduced by how cool the car looks" "I couldn't help but buy it, I was raped by how cool the car looks" which one would you use in a light humored dinner conversation?
Hmm I wonder how these words work out when applied to a situation we all don't like, lets say a guy dumps toxic waste for 10 years into a mountain stream: "That guy raped mother earth for 10 years" "That guy seduced mother earth for 10 years"
Fuck these assholes, they KNOW seduced is a soft word that has absolutely zero impact behind it.
this is a horrible take what the fuck? Women aren’t struggling to stop themselves from raping boys because of some sort of contractual obligation to the rest of the female population to not chase men their age...
not only is this completely non-factual, its literally no different from “she couldn’t help herself from raping him”
Often times, this isn’t entirely the media’s fault. In many states (including my own), rape is legally defined as non-consensual penetration of the victim. So assuming it was traditional sex, only men can be charged. Women can only be charged with sexually assault, which of course carries smaller penalties (another huge problem).
Ultimately, it’s the laws that are archaic and wrong. It would be nice if the media stepped up and called it as it is. However, they risk libel suits using literal definitions of the law. And in the court of law that these suits would take place, they’re likely to rule in favor of the plaintiff.
Absolutely. I’m not arguing that. I’m just saying that the media isn’t at fault. It’s the laws. And if we want to change things, let’s stop blaming the media and start challenging lawmakers
My most recent girlfriend was 19 when I was 24 and all she ever talked about was sex (she even once called me vanilla). She said at the time she'd had about 5 sexual partners prior to me so I can assume she's been sexually active long into her teens. Also all my female friends lost their virginity long before my male friends (one lost hers at 13). So you're either a dude, or you don't have a clue what you're talking about. Once again, what difference does this even make to OP's post? rape is rape.
