That is the choice they make when they send their children to private schools.

These are horrible false analogies and strawmen. No one is saying private school children are entitled to protection, but it is a private school, meaning those costs should be privately funded. That is how this works. And no one is saying police or firemen shouldn’t respond in an emergency. But there is a difference…

Oddly, you have derailed any chance of having an honest discussion by being condescendingly persnickety about a misspelling. Funny how that works.

That’s a decision they make.

They are citizens of the state and city. They have an opportunity to attend public schools where their needs will be funded by taxpayers. They choose to attend a private school - with that should come an expectation that the students needs are privately funded. Surely public schools face funding issues as well, and…

The NYT article isn’t calling out anything except the oddity of her being a fashion success despite not being a box office success. There is nothing in that article dealing in any depth with her whiteness, blondness, thinness, parentage, or any other privilege that might give her an advantage in fashion. It is…

That is not a “study.” That is an economics professor’s think piece on the subject. In no way does that purport to “prove” that being raped unconscious is not traumatic (a conclusion that an economics professor is not really qualified to make) but is a (flawed) attempt at showing why that professor thinks it shouldn’t…

Comments don’t get much more pathetic and cowardly than this.

No, you first said there was no evidence. Then you moved onto victim blaming.

I’m not glossing over anything. You are repeatedly moving the goalposts.

No, your “poor judgment” accusations are not facts, they are opinions. You are victim blaming, and I don’t have to accept your false dichotomy of “You are either victim blaming or you don’t think victims should go to the police.” That is fucking nonsense, no one ever said they shouldn’t go to the police. But your…

Yep. There you are, telling an alleged victim what she “should” have done and accusing her of “poor judgment” after a traumatic event, completely ignoring the legitimate reasons that people often don’t report rape, particularly acquaintance rape such as what is alleged to occur here.

Yeah, as you point out those are criminal laws, I’m not sure any has a civil right of action in them.

Unless there’s a law that (i) gives a civil right to relief (ii) where the “victim” doesn’t actually contract the virus (oh, and where after finding out she continues to voluntarily have unprotected sex with him), I don’t see it. There might be that law, though, I don’t know.

Uhhh....I’m struggling to understand what the legal claim is. “He was convincing” doesn’t carry with it a right to relief as far as I’m aware.

Now you’re just continuing to be a pathetic judgmental dick. Yes, I want rapists to be convicted, and obviously the best way for them to be convicted is if rapes are reported. Do you honestly think anyone is arguing with that, or are you just being a disingenuous little piece of shit? (I know which one my money is…

I posted one thing from the APA article. Everything else is from a different source. I am on a mobile phone, so no, it is not that easy to repost the link. How about you post one source, and I’ll repost a link I’ve already provided.

What’s pointless and stupid is continuing to engage in this conversation with you. You are either an idiot or troll. I provided a link to an article containing numerous research findings addressing this issue. If you are too fucking stupid to find it yourself, I can’t help. Or you could fucking Google “gay choice” and…

Holy shit. You are such a fucking liar. The APA thing I linked to was one of TWO links. I AM TALKING ABOUT THE SECOND LINK I PROVIDED YOU BIGOTED MOUTH BREATHER. I have said this multiple times. This should not be this hard

It discusses the cause of homosexuality as being a variety of factors outside of the control of the individual. That is why that article I linked to says explicitly with no reservation that homosexuality is not a choice.
