It wouldn't matter how you were dressed in that dark alley. Exactly, that was mistake number 1, number 2 was doing it at midnight and the icing on the cake is number 3 with the bikini. What woman in her right mind would do that? This conversation is ridiculous. And this is the end of it. Almost all women sexually abused were not dressed provocatively. Go read some stats. It's an abuse of power. Violence. Having nothing to do with sexual attraction. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I go out in a sexy avatar, the chances of getting hit on for Slex are much higher, because some people still view it that way (as an invitation). And I am glad of it or that dressing up in sexy clothes would have been a waste of time and L$. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Ceka, where you going, we gotta get to the beach before the parking sucks!.. Ceka: I think I seen a cute lil puppy down this alley, BRB! hehehe This actually looks like one of my normal SL outfits. Minus the guns. Haven't needed those (I prefer axes). 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't comment on all the others, just this one example of the bikini, alley, midnight. If you were a juror in the case, would you not want to know the circumstances of why she was there dressed like that at that time? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rarely see women riding lawnmowers in my neighborhood. They're usually digging around in the dirt, planting things. From this I could deduce that men don't like getting their hands dirty. My Mom was out riding a tractor lawnmower at our ranch house when she was in her 70's. She played at making little vineyards when she was a kid. She was the best in her math classes in high school. She was a bomb fuse inspector in WWII, but could only be a secretary in the Core of Engineers after the war. She was a primary school teacher for most of her adult life, a single mother, a strong and independent woman, and a great role-model for me and for the girls in her classes. My Dad was an Engineer and post-retirement law student who treated me as an intelligent, strong-minded person, rather than as an old-fashioned gender role.

The axes go on her antlers with toilet paper, canned food, a pressure cooker, and other useful tools. 😂 Luckily, nobody seems to find it hot. 😄 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the bikini clad girl was there voluntarily hoping to meet some degenerate for some rough sex, should that not have some bearing on the case? Of itself it would be very curious for a woman to go into a dark alley late at night dressed as she was. I would have to wonder if she was of sound mind to do something like that and question whether she was a danger to herself. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scylla Rhiadra Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 Just now, Arielle Popstar said: If the bikini clad girl was there voluntarily hoping to meet some degenerate for some rough sex, should that not have some bearing on the case? No, it would not. Because wanting "rough sex" doesn't eliminate one's right to say "no" to anyone, at any time in the encounter. That's why BDSM focuses upon consent, Arielle, and incorporates such features as "safe words," so that consent can be withdrawn at any time. 2 minutes ago, Arielle Popstar said: I would have to wonder if she was of sound mind to do something like that This is an entirely different question from the first. It has nothing to do with whether or not a rape occurred. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even so, if she was there to meet whomever and said "I changed my mind, stop" at that point if they don't stop it's considered sexual assault even if she was naked at the time and voluntarily took off her bikini. See how your argument fails here. 4 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See how your argument fails here. You didn't actually say whether she had been raped: Quote So I'm guessing you would also believe that if a woman walks down a dark alley at midnight in her bathing suit she is asking to be sexually assaulted and she's partly to blame? That's what I hear from what you just posted. So since it is your story, why was she in a dark alley at midnight in a bikini? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solar Legion Posted April 20, 2022 Share Posted April 20, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, Rowan Amore said: Apparently, women need to never leave home and just let the big strong alpha male protect us? I'm actually going to have to agree with Luna. He must be trolling as no one could possibly be that ignorant. I see that a few more members of the Ungus Bungus Brigade showed up - one even trying to "argue" an absolutely ridiculous scenario ... To disclose a bit concerning RL: I do not go anywhere without carrying a knife or two. The only exceptions to this are Government buildings and the like. I carry such because I know quite well that I am a favored target of some types ... The joys of being visually ambiguous in presentation and giving off Femme vibes (to say nothing of the sort who will take all of that and assume which way I swing). "But Solar, why not carry Mace or a firearm?" - If I have to defend myself, I am going to do so with intent (should not need to spell that out). As for a firearm, the only way I can acquire such (eyesight and other issues) is through buying parts and assembling it myself.

Seriously for this to be relevant to her being assaulted you would have to argue that a woman in a dark alley at night wearing a bikini is more deserving of being assaulted and therefore has less rights than a woman wearing a raincoat at a grocery store in broad daylight, and that's just not how rights work. 6 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was late and taking a shortcut. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
