Yes. Thank you for this. A fourteen-year-old knows what he is doing. And he gets better at it.

Is anyone more deserving of being feasted upon than hypocrites and child abusers?

Yep. One more time, all together now:

Just because you apparently live under a rock, or on another planet—these people are megastars in the reality tv and religious worlds.

This is pretty much confirming what I suspected: that the girls received the blame for what Josh did, and that they were consistently and repeatedly told that there was a certain amount of innocence to the whole thing.

And how can you simultaneously assert that hand-holding and hugs are forbidden outside of marriage, but playing with your sleeping sister’s vagina is normal?

Agreed. It’s super insulting to men — paints them as moronic monsters with zero control of themselves. If I were a guy, I’d be protesting this shit big time. Embarrassing!

This whole sad drama has been kinda triggering for a lot of people, so I just want to throw this out there, from RAINN:

““Many times it is simply lack of opportunity or fear of consequences that keep us from falling into grievous sin even though our fallen hearts would love to indulge the flesh.”

If they had to save their first kiss for their husband on their wedding day, it’s a shame they weren’t allowed to save their first breast and genital fondling for him on that day as well.

To me it seems like the Duggar parents are acting like he had sex before marriage????? Like I don't feel they understand that he MOLESTED someone.

Well-adjusted 14 year olds do not “play doctor” with younger siblings.

“Many times it is simply lack of opportunity or fear of consequences that keep us from falling into grievous sin even though our fallen hearts would love to indulge the flesh. We should not be shocked that this occurred in the Duggar’s home, we should rather be thankful to God if we have been spared such, and pray…

Jessa Duggar’s father-in-law goes on to say that fans shouldn’t be shocked by Josh’s actions — he claims that many people would do the same thing if they didn’t fear the consequences of their behavior.

“a youthful indiscretion”

Thanks, I just rambled and blathered as I’m wont to do :)

When you feel truly guilty about something, that feeling is usually accompanied by shame and profound embarrassment. You can’t even think about what you did without feeling like shit. You would never joke about it. When you truly fuck up and feel super guilty, in any situation, you don’t make jokes about it like “Lol…

I made a very open post requesting that if people on my facebook were going to post “in defense of Josh Duggar” articles, they should just unfriend me first, and to make a long story short, most of these people have no idea what Josh even DID. They don’t know it was his sister, they don’t know it was his sisterS…

The whole Josh Duggar controversy pisses me off in so many different ways. Aside from the fact that this piece of shit molested his own sisters, it infuriates me that this fucked up family was offered the privilege to be reality tv stars, but many of us know why that is.
