[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A friend posted a very articulate criticism of the Duggars and their handling of the problem from a Christian viewpoint. The author is very clear about how Christian fundamentalist communities shame and blame the victims.

Is there any evidence that the Duggars shamed the girls?[/quote]

Solid evidence? No. But go back a few pages and read the document that Gothard/ATI prescribe for sexual assault in families in their cult, and if they got their daughters any counseling at all, you would guess it would be from the same religion they follow, right? The document asks such questions of the victim as, what were you wearing? How did you encourage it? I'm paraphrasing, but it is victim shaming. And I've forgotten the source I read it in, but one site said that the girls had to go before their church and ask for forgiveness.  :!: [/quote]

But there is no evidence thatchy shamed their daughters. [/quote]

JFC. Please read that document that has been posted. What is that if not shaming? And if the girls were made to ask forgiveness of the church? What is [i]that[/i] if not shaming? What possible thing could a victim of a sexual assault have to ask forgiveness for? [/quote]
