On a thread about a mother who killed her child due to post-partum depression, the tone was “I hope she gets the help she needs.”

When has anyone on this show who is attempting to show themselves as strong, NOT acted like a dick?
The headline only minimizes her experience if the reader is an idiot.
Ohhhhh....you’re doing THAT.
What hairs am I splitting? I wrote clearly that it was rape.
“it wasn’t consensual sex on the part of the victim, but rape usually DOES consist of “having sex”.
Some people like the taste of their own shit, too.
Ugh, that commenter appears to be a piece of shit.
This wording thing has turned into an undeserved pile-on of Evans.
Also, and more to your point, nowhere did Evans suggest that this was a consensual act or that the child was not raped. Using the term “sex” only would diminish what happened IF the article didn’t make clear the man was convicted of a crime and include quotes from the WaPo story about the extent of the abuse.
Evans clearly wrote that the child was repeatedly raped in the body of her story.
No. Because, in this case, the headline is describing exactly why legally he was convicted for 25 years.
The conviction is outlined in the last paragraph of the story above. It includes “sex tourism”.
Yes. He was. Read the rest of the conviction. “sex tourism”.
On an earlier thread, the author addressed it but, some people aren’t trying to hear that. It is what it is.
I’m not saying she didn’t.
The headline correctly describes what the man was convicted of: sex trafficking.
It correctly describes what the man was convicted of: sex trafficking.
He’s bad. But the aunt and family of the girl are just as bad.
It’s a crime to have sex with a 14 year old.
