[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m on the 2nd episode and the abuse is sickening. But the age of some of these women was 17, 18. I knew exactly what I was doing at 15 and 16.  Maybe I didn’t understand the consequences of my actions, but I knew what my body was capable of and what I could elicit from adult married men.  Wtf is wrong with me that I can’t help but think they allowed these things because they wanted something from him. They were old enough to know better.  Am I a sicko too?[/quote]

Yes, you are, and you are also despicable for saying children allowed a man to rape them. Hopefully you don't have children of your own. [/quote]

+[b]1. Teenagers have hormones that make them sexual, but they are not mature enough to handle a grown man. And children, especially kids from rough upbringings, crave positive adult attention. You take a girl from a difficult home environment and suggest to her that sex can make her get adult male attention (which is severely lacking in many poor homes, which tend to be headed by a single parent) and they will do it[/b]. You don't have any concept of the voids created by difficult childhoods-- or you wouldn't be saying it. It's like saying a starving prostitute is doing it because she *wants* to. It is exploitation of our most vulnerable population and your lack of empathy is sick, sick, sick. Please reflect on why it is wrong to exploit vulnerable teen girls. [/quote]

I hear what you're saying, but I think the extent of this is sometimes exaggerated.  When I was 16, I had a 20 year old boyfriend.  By today's standards, he would be labeled a "child rapist" and that is just preposterous in my mind.  I think he was a great guy and that there was nothing damaging and unhealthy about the relationship at all.  And no, I was not in anyway from a rough background or craving adult attention. [/quote]
