at least it properly calls it rape and not an "affair" or some shit like that. still disgusting that they let her walk... bet she doesn't even need to register as a sex offender!

[–]TheJazzProphet 353 points354 points355 points 9 years ago* (49 children) | Copy Link

I know. I was shocked at how unsympathetic the article is to the perpetrator. I mean, they have a big, unflattering picture of her (usually it's the woman looking sexy or coy) under the headline "Woman spared jail after she raped daughter's 13-year-old boyfriend". They call it rape and refer to the boy's age in the headline, and they finish the article with a quote from the deputy attorney general characterizing the perpetrator as a criminal and the boy as a victim. It's ludicrous that she didn't get any jail time for this, but at least the media is covering without portraying it as a thrilling sexcapade the way they usually do when it's a female perpetrator and a male victim.

I think it helped them since she's black. If this was a blonde bombshell like most of the others, it wouldn't have been quite so harsh.

There is still plenty of stigma and prejudice in the UK. The attitudes and institutions in the US didn't come out of nowhere.

Huh, I have to say as a Brit who has lived in America for a year or so the biggest difference I have noticed is the level racism and prejudice being turned up 100.

[–]seraph582 15 points16 points17 points 9 years ago (31 children) | Copy Link

Turn off your TV then. It's the most racist thing you'll see here in the states. Come to the "racist south" where the integration rates are WAAAAY higher than up north, and you'll see all sorts of races getting along just fine.

Visit Atlanta - it's integrated AF. No problems.

[–]Tenacious_Dad 2 points3 points4 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Yep I live near Raleigh NC and all races are courteous and friendly to each other. We all smile, say hi, and say thanks. We hold open doors for each, let each in when merging into traffic...you know regular nice things. It's definitely the media that race agitates and race baits. The media gets more viewership when they create a race hate narrative because people are disgusted by it.

[+]livingdead191 -6 points-5 points-4 points 9 years ago (29 children) | Copy Link

Dude no. You have race issues that are pretty bad. I notice it visiting from Canada. And the UK never had black slavery.

[–]nifara 8 points9 points10 points 9 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

The UK did have black slavery just not on the same scale and it was abolished a lot earlier. But there absolutely were black household slaves in the UK.

[–]livingdead191 -2 points-1 points0 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Ok this was for a short period and they were on the same level as other servants, not lesser than. So there is a reason there is far less racism towards blacks in the UK than there is in the US. They're not even remotely comparable.

[–]Kildigs 6 points7 points8 points 9 years ago (15 children) | Copy Link

That's not true at all.

Slavery in Britain: Enslaved Africans

Admiral Sir John Hawkins of Plymouth, a notable Elizabethan seafarer, is widely acknowledged to be "the Pioneer of the English Slave Trade". In 1554–1555, Hawkins formed a slave trading syndicate of wealthy merchants. He sailed with three ships for the Caribbean via Sierra Leone, hijacked a Portuguese slave ship and sold the 300 slaves from it in Santo Domingo. During a second voyage in 1564, his crew captured 400 Africans and sold them at Rio de la Hacha in present-day Colombia, making a 60% profit for his financiers.

NO where near the scale or brutality as seen in America. Don't event try to compare.

From your article:

By the mid 18th century, London had the largest Black population in Britain, made up of free and enslaved people, as well as many runaways. The total number may have been about 10,000.[28]

[–]seraph582 5 points6 points7 points 9 years ago* (9 children) | Copy Link

Said before, and I'm say it again. Come to Atlanta. Come to our thriving upper income suburbs where my neighbors are more black than white, and the park down the road is full of blacks, South Indians, North Indians, Muslim women and girls in hijabs, burkas, the one sized in between I don't know the name of, and muslims in full western garb - it's a wonderful sight. All of that AND the more common latin/Asian/etc minorities all in the same park regularly. It's a lot more diverse and copacetic here than it is in San Francisco, even.

I just went to Canada recently myself - found a bag of weed on the ground in < 2hours of staying near Vancouver. Still can't decide if that's a good thing or a bad thing lol.

Edit: lolol at the "UK never had black slavery" bit.

[–]livingdead191 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (8 children) | Copy Link

The UKs "black slavery" was nothing compared to the US black slavery, no more harsh toward black servants than white.

Also your hyperboles are so cliche that I don't have any intention of assuming they're true.

One neighbourhood in a one major city in the US does not speak for the rest of the country.

At least we still have freedom of speech. For some reason people confuse freedom of speech and racism. IDK why but liberal Nazis want to take away people's opinions under the notion of racism. It's really a shame.

[–]bubby963 11 points12 points13 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

the level racism and prejudice being turned up 100.

I assume you didn't live anywhere that was particularly bad in the UK then. The UK can be really really fucking racist and prejudiced, and unless you lived in every single area in the UK and every single area in the US you can't really make a comparison between the two. The area you grew up in in the UK might not have been racist, and the area you live in the US now may be, but that certainly does not mean that's a standard between the two countries. I say this as someone who was born and grew up in the UK.

[–]J05huaJack 27 points28 points29 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I can make a comparison of where I live now and where I lived in the UK though can't I? Anyway the intention wasn't to have a slap fight about traveling every inch of the world pal, just to give a point of view. Thanks though!

Of course not, but they are still vastly different and it makes it a lot less likely that this kind of negative publicity is because she's black and not because of just the author or the article.

It is blatant...its offensive! You just raped a child! But you feel bad about it so it's ok then. No man could rape a 13 year old and get away with it in the court of law. But she just did.

The message that they are sending to the boy: "you don't matter enough for us to punish this person. You weren't hurt from it. She is more valuable than you are."

[–]TacticalEspoinage 70 points71 points72 points 9 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

The message that they are sending to that boy: "you don't matter enough for us to punish this person."

Great message to send a 13 year old, isn't it? Hopefully he realises that it won't work out that way if he does the same thing to a girl.

[–]Erethiel117 68 points69 points70 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Great message to send a 13 year old, isn't it? Hopefully he realises that it won't work out that way if he does the same thing to a girl.

And that's what's tragic about his situation. If he should grow up developing problems and eventually commit a crime against a woman, that's the ONLY time they'll pay attention to him in the first place. Only as a CRIMINAL/PREDATOR.

[–]killcat 7 points8 points9 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It's worse than that, if she got pregnant as soon as he turned 18 he would be libel for child support.

[–][deleted] 40 points41 points42 points 9 years ago (11 children) | Copy Link

Exactly. I debate her a lot if we are hanging out. She loves to go on about cultural appropriation which I have fun getting after her for. Like does she want the world to be segregated and for people to not try to integrate with each other? Sounds kinda fucked.

[+]Zieb86 -29 points-28 points-27 points 9 years ago (10 children) | Copy Link

How does not appropriating ones culture = don't integrate? A white person and a native american living next to each other or working with each other does not necessitate that it is appropriate for a white person to wear a native american headdress as a costume piece. A huge part of integrating with others is respecting their way of life.

[–][deleted] 40 points41 points42 points 9 years ago (9 children) | Copy Link

The problem arises when it is never seen as a problem the other way. Think of all the things white people have invented and popularized. People are always imitating trends started by white actors/musicians and nobody cares when other races participate in these trends because complaining someone is copying you is something 5year olds do. Complaining another race is copying you (when they aren't trying to be offensive) is racist. Saying "only black people can have dreadlocks" or something equivocal, is racist. You are telling people what they can wear or do based on race

[–]varisforge 18 points19 points20 points 9 years ago (8 children) | Copy Link

If you take cultural appropriation to it's logical extremes, you could say that much of technology is being appropriated from White Culture, and for appropriation to cease, all other races must disavow any technology they did not individually create.

It's separatist and stupid, in my opinion.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points6 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Exactly.

[+]havocs -8 points-7 points-6 points 9 years ago (6 children) | Copy Link

You lost me here, first, what is White Culture? And second taking it to extremes would take it even back further in time to who invented math. Then you'd go back even further into who invented numbers, etc.

Don't think taking it to 'logical' extremes is logical

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points7 points 9 years ago* (1 child) | Copy Link

If wearing a Native American headress is appropriating native culture, following the logic it's theirs because they created it - then driving a car/watching tv/browsing reddit is appropriating white culture, since white people created those things, no?

They're not saying that the extremes ARE logical, but that if you're going to consider copying some things a culture 'invented' be cultural appropriation, isn't it logical to include everything created by said culture?

You could even say math is one, but then of course you'd have to take into consideration the fact 'math' has existed in its most basic form since before history, and mathematical formulas have been gradually improved and expanded by people of many different cultures and over many several millenia, only proving further how ridiculous the idea of 'culture appropriation' is.

[–]havocs -1 points0 points1 point 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

in my opinion, 95% of accusations of 'cultural appropriation' is BS. Learning and incorporating food from different cultures is totally fine and justified. Borrowing words and literature references are totally okay in my book. The only time I see 'cultural appropriation' as harmful is when you purposefully taking something and disrespect it and/or monetize it without giving credit to its originators.

Things like the NA headdress is kinda fucked up because it is a cultural and spiritual symbol that most people have no respect for and use as part of costumes. Not only that, they are being sold for this purpose and I doubt any of that money goes back to NA tribes or is done with their consent.

On the flip side, things like fireworks were created in China but don't have 'as much' as a cultural significance. I don't see any problem with people buying and selling fireworks because of how little cultural impact it has.

I think where we may disagree is on the definition of 'cultural appropriation'. I think it's a lot more nuanced than 'it's theirs because they created it' and someone else is using it. There is also an aspect of intent and impact that I believe makes it impossible to make a huge blanket statement over every instance of one culture mixing with another. The term 'cultural appropriation' is used so much as to have little meaning any more and so I choose to use it very carefully.

[–]Daemonicus 6 points7 points8 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

You lost me here, first, what is White Culture?

It's the same as Black culture... Something purposely left vague, so that an individual can use it or dismiss it, so that it suits their narrative. Like how OP used Native American as a monolith of culture, when it strengthened (or so they thought) the point they were trying to make.

[–]MrJewfroMcBorker 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

What is White Culture? Well it is the culture of white people, which of course varies depending on the country, regions within those countries, ethnic groups, religions etc. Compare the general culture of Germany to France for example; there's quite a difference. It's the same with any 'race'. Black people have many different cultures, as do Asians and Latinos/ South Americans.

[–]havocs -1 points0 points1 point 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I would argue then it would be just be called French Culture and German Culture. By your definition, White Culture would be so varied and vast as to be a worthless label.

I would hesitate to label any culture by race, with the exception of 'American Black' culture due to more specific circumstances.

Man hits women and gets tackled by other men. Women hits man and no one bats an eye until the man hits her back and gets tackled by other men.

Who in that scenario is causing the double standard, the women or the men? Answer, the men. This court case is basically the same thing. Women aren't viewed as predators and as such aren't convicted in similar fashion as men. Which is a symptom of oppression.

It doesn't take mental gymnastics to realize this, rather it takes mental laziness to not realize it.

Yeah, and who invented a tool for police to refer to when handling domestic violence situations that calls domestic violence a part of the patriarchy? Where it is recommended the most threatening (ie, the man) perpetrator be arrested?

You're right about the logic, but I don't understand what part of that is oppression aside from how males get treated.

Here's another factor of the polarity you aren't mentioning:

Do women want to protect men as much as they want to protect women? No. Men are in more dangerous conditions across the board. Simultaneously, women will complain massively about anything that goes against fellow females.

The truth of the matter is that men and women are naturally different in ways that can't be changed. Men prove their sexual value through the dominance hierarchy, so the "patriarchy" forms because of that. Women have inherent sexual value, so there's no need for women to waste their lives competing under capitalism.

Oh, but polarity! That means women essentially drive the patriarchy by selecting for men who have more power. If that wasn't the case, men would have no need to fight for power. The primary goals of men would be possible without wealth.

There's no way to make these things logical. The truth is that women are treated fairly. Men should have the same respect and be given a chance for rehabilitation. Since that won't happen on a widespread level anytime soon, none of this fucking matters.

Let's consider the polarity instead of blaming one side. Maybe the goal should be for each sex to do their best at what they do. Women can be manipulative cunts that enshrine themselves in all types of protection, while men battle and compete while shaming the weak men who let women have any control over us.

It's all about the balance, and it's undeniable the sexes are in a constant state of competition with each other.

[–]Zieb86 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago* (1 child) | Copy Link

The women aren't being oppressed when they get the lenient sentence, the men are. The point is that the reason women are getting the more lenient sentence is because of how society views women and men presently. Men are the predatory rapists and women aren't. This isn't something that feminism or women at large are saying though. This is a cultural thing ingrained in our society which is there because of patriarchy.

So when I call this a symptom of oppression I am saying that the ways in which we oppress women, e.g. women are weak and subservient, lends itself to them getting lesser sentences in court cases. Does it benefit women in those specific scenarios ultimately? Yes. Ought they be benefited that way? No. Because it comes at the expense of being oppressed in many ways outside of this one benefit.

As to whether women want to protect men or not I'm not sure how you can qualify that statement. I know plenty of feminist women that think it's horrible how men are treated in society and want it to change. Are they championing those issues though? Not nearly as much as women issues because women by and large are at a greater disadvantage presently than men. It's also the case that if you solve many of the problems women face you will also solve many of the problems men face in the process.

Also, thanks for actually replying here instead of just going on a tantrum like the rest of the people who responded to me.

[–]AKnightAlone 0 points1 point2 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I mostly agree, but the nature of the psychosexual dynamic is rigid. We can't stop people from being gay, and any sensible person will understand that. In very much the same way, we can't stop women from being attracted to powerful men. And we can't stop men from judging women for physical factors.

With that in mind, I think the only possibility is to affect the system in which the patriarchy arises. Essentially, end capitalism; end the unnatural commodification of labor and male sexual value.

[–]GreyInkling 4 points5 points6 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

They are comparatively a lot less biased in general but in specific areas not nearly enough. Unfortunately it's too easy to fall into the trap of assuming that because things are better than they were then they're good enough. In this case it means we don't let guys off for being pillars of the community despite being pedophiles, but we still let women off for that. In other areas it means people assume racism is a thing of a past jist because it's not supported outwardly and openly by local government.

Better than we used to be by far, but the more you clean things up the more dirty you realize things really are and how much more cleaning there is to do.

this subreddit would rather talk shit about women than actually deal with men's issues.

That isn't true. It is common for us to point out the prevalent double standards that exist between the sexes such as the courts and society in general favouriting women over men in many circumstances, but we also have plenty of discussions about what we want to accomplish and what we can do to help men everywhere. Edit: Besides, women are getting away with a lot of bullshit lately that is ruining men's lives and it needs to be addressed and taken seriously by all sides. This sub is not anti-women or anti-trans/black/gay/etc. It is a community that is sick and tired of the justice system and society as a whole letting women get the upper hand and get away with heinous crimes like THIS.

I recommend giving this sub a good and thorough read and listen to the grievances some of its members have.

[+]PM_For_Soros_Money points 9 years ago* [recovered] (1 child) | Copy Link

You see this subreddit with rose tinted lenses. A lot of the content on the front page is just angry at women.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points7 points 9 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

With a post like this, how could you not be angry at the woman in question? She is literally walking away and getting away with it. It's wrong and unfair. I don't see that as rose-tinted one bit.

As a convicted cocaine dealer, I've been disgusted with how Western legal systems treat child molesters of both sexes.

There would be uproar, his life would be over, he would be in prison for 25 years and get beaten up, raped etc while he was there, and he would never be able to be a part of society anymore. This is disgusting that she can walk away from this with 2 years probation. Almost as bad as the girl who made up a story about getting raped, admitted to it after the guy had been in prison for 4 years, he got released, and she got a slap on the wrist and a relatively small fine.

[–][deleted] -5 points-4 points-3 points 9 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

you seem to be trying to understand why so many people found his sentence to be light. The answer is probably a combination of: 1) he was chased off before it could go any farther 2) many may not draw as big a distinction as you between penetrating an unconscious person with a finger and a dick and 3) many don't view being drunk as a mitigating factor

edit: appropriate sentencing is a difficult question in really all cases, but I would say particularly in sex crime cases. You're first post seems to imply that women (it was definitely not just women upset about the sentence) were crazy to think 6 months was too light.

[–]Endless_Summer 11 points12 points13 points 9 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

what's a huge distinction? The average sentence for rape is 10 years. Is it not a huge distinction to then want Turner to get a, let's say, 3-year sentence?*

I disagree that 6 months is an appropriate sentence in this case, but I can understand that opinion. I can't understand being so absolute about it and thinking someone wanting a longer sentence is crazy.

*let's also keep in mind the fact that he was chased off of the woman which is certainly a very large aggravating factor.

[–][deleted] 8 points9 points10 points 9 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Teenagers can consent with each other, and there are "Romeo and Juliet" laws, but generally a child cannot consent to sex with an adult as per the law. Thus, this is statutory rape.

Although I believe you're arguing for your opinion rather than about the law. In that case, what do you think the law should be?

You just told a general statement. I am against it, nothing else.

I don't even understand. I made several points. Which do you reject?

1) Teens can legally consent to each other.

2) Romeo and Juliet laws protect certain teen/adult couples.

3) Generally, a child cannot legally consent to sex with an adult.

Also, again, if you disagree with the law, what do you think it should be?

i like how you said "Oh. Shit. My bad, I was cross reading and didn't read that line."

about him not being willing and then proceed 2 hours later to still defend your stupid statement.

The actions of the child are irrelevant. It is the adult's behaviour that is in question.
