I watch stuff like this
and this
Sometimes I'll switch things up with a little of this
I can't wait for the next season of this
^ I've been watching GoT since the second season.
we're just programmed to think that way, and in a lot of situations that thinking does apply. it always struck me as odd when i had a gay friend who would basically force himself onto inebriated guys, that no one really seemed to think much of it. change the drunken one to a woman and it's some serious shit. but it's the same principle.

Oh please.
I was engaged to be married at 14. If you go back just a couple of generations, in most human societies in the world, it was relatively common for people to be married at 13/14. Are you saying that all of your great-grandparents' generation were all traumatised, or that human mentality or physiology has changed so much in such a short space of time that we don't go through puberty until later anymore?
The ages of 14, 16 or 18 (depending on which country you are in) were just chosen randomly as ages where puberty was ended for most. It's not like as soon as all the kids in that country turn that age they magically become capable adults XD
Even though we live in a society that infantalises young people to a horrifying degree, I can still believe that a 14 yo girl is capable of making her own decisions with regards to what she wants and doesn't want to do.
yea and mary was supposedly 12 when she married joseph (84), and aisha was like 6(?) when she married mohammed (50smth), and 9 when the marriage was consumated. what's interesting is, the context. although we now know 6 and 12 are way too young for a child to give informed consent, i think in this context it would not have been so disturbing, as all parties were aware. what i think is really bothering xena, is the thought that this is statutory rape, and thus intentionally kept a secret. she can't handle that fact, and i'm not too focused on forcing her to accept it, but i do think it demonstrates the delusional thinking she operates with 'i gave informed consent, there was no crime'.
if you don't mind me asking, how old was the guy you were engaged to?
🙀 I know I'm sounding like a broken record.
I'm still thinking there was quite a bit of grooming. I can only imagine there were girls before and after her. I dont feel like she would have had a whole lot of emotional maturity. Okay yes, she could have really wanted sex but that's still statutory rape, one of them(adult) should have said- Hey that's not right. I'm a friend of the family, I've known you since you were in nappys this would be rather weird. Like at what point do you just give the kid what they want without you know, thinking about it?
i know this is probly fucked up, but my gut feeling about this is id be more disturbed about it if i had a daughter rather than a son.. idk why that is really
wouldnt sit well in either case. for sure if a family friend my age pursued my kid, id be borderline homicidal. and likewise, i would never engage in that sort of relationship with a friend's kid. #1 because i think any sane adult finds teenagers kinda offputting, and #2 because the breach of trust is pretty serious
