I don't think anyone suggested that she was helping, just that Apple's reaction was rather extreme, especially for someone who considers themselves healthy.

"Get healthy" is, at most, a 2 on the Meanness scale. If THAT's all it takes for you to cancel your performance and deny the paying customers the performance they paid for, you probably shouldn't be performing. God forbid someone had said "I don't particularly care for this song, can you play something off of your…

Aw, lookitdapuppy!

Jeez. While it's not cool to shout things to performers, if literally just suggesting that she's not well makes her upset enough to be unable to finish the show, then maybe she's not actually well.

It's much better to murder hundreds of innocent people as someone who pretends to be a normal, well-adjusted person.

Last year, it was revealed that the Crucial Catch charity only donates a teeny percentage of its proceeds to actual cancer [research].

And in America, this poor kid would be suspended.

So how would you personally differentiate between the guy with the erection trying to push you down under him while grinding against your ass with sexually dominant intentions, and the guy with the erection trying to push you down under him while grinding against your ass with non-sexually dominant intentions?

It's really a dishonest argument. "If you disagree with me, you're endorsing violence against women". It's an absurd statement.

Since a couple of years ago, you are allowed to punch in pro wrestling.

You should care, you just made the point that if women are uncomfortable with how they're treated in a male dominated field, it's their own fault. That's a pretty huge statement.

Swimming is a different environment from wrestling. There are guys who are going to RELISH the idea of sexually dominating girls in a school-sponsored/endorsed event. Best part? There won't be a single thing to set them apart from the guys who apply the same holds but with different intent, as long as they stay within…

How about arguing the actual points instead of resorting to personal attacks?

Interactions between girls and boys don't change when puberty comes on?

If they're uncomfortable, then they shouldn't be on the wrestling team.

No, not at all. You can tell yourself that high school boys saw the high school girls in swim suits and only ever thought of them platonically, but it's simply not true. When a guy dragged one of the prettier girls in the water, he told his guy friends how it felt afterwards (and probably added significantly more…

And of course I understand that lots of wrestling positions are pretty sexual-looking, but again - I would have to think that if you're a girl (or the parent of a girl) who is wrestling, you already know this and have had whatever discussions you feel are necessary.

or....just maybe, my teammates saw their girl teammates as just that. Their teammates.

You don't see ANY problems with teenage boys trying to subdue and dominate girls while sexually aroused?

The same logic that tacitly endorses spousal abuse is the same that is creepily preoccupied with “protecting” women.
