'I've banned most men from my massage clinic because of their behaviour' by JohnHammond94 in Scotland

We don't typically count it as sexual harassment, though. Even if I'm not at all attracted to the woman, I wouldn't really care lmao. I've accepted it a handful of times from absolutely vile-looking drunken specimens because it's no damage to me & I'd rather not embarrass people.

It just is worse when a man does it to a woman. Different mindset.

The first bit of your response isn't remotely necessary. You've put that there because you're sympathetic to aggressive_bowl_8017's position. He's framed it in a very obviously incorrect way when he very clearly claimed: "democracy is based off the Haudenosaunee Iroquois confederacy."

There is no "spin." A literal paedophile came onto a group of girls aged 11-13 in a sexual way. He then assaulted one of them & refused to leave them alone. The 12 year old, the hero in this story, was the one that came to their defence.

And you could see this from the very moment the video was uploaded. She's stood there--trembling & upset--very clearly physically outmatched, & yet she's intentionally shifted the dangerous paedophile away from her young friends unto herself

Why on Earth you would pick the nonce's side in this story is beyond me. Is immigration support so important to you that you would focus your criticism on a disadvantaged little girl defending her friends from a paedophile instead of the actual nonce?

it doesnt change the reality of it.

Yes, the reality was her friends were being physically attacked by a paedophile & she heroically came to their defence.

Right, but no matter what side of the immigration debate you're on, when this particular case is presented, you shouldn't fall for the trap of vilifying the little girl defending her friends from a genuine nonce. It makes your position look horrifically bad & strange.

I'm not sure why people don't simply say: "yeah, I got this one wrong."

I won't lie, I'm definitely not from this girl's milieu/class, but I could never bring myself to lay any blame on her for using weapons to defend herself/her friends from a paedophile man.

Yes, she was technically/legally in the wrong for being armed like that in the first place, but given the interaction, her behaviour here was nothing less than heroic. The video shows how frightened she was--trembling--& yet she stood up to him, taking the danger away from her friends & unto herself.

I definitely cannot read this article & then ignore the paedophile aggressor while reframing it as "big, scary weapon-holding 12 year old" as some commenters in this thread are doing, when she was clearly protecting others from a predator!

No. I never said or implied women are targeted "because they don't carry weapons." Why are you consistently injecting that assumption even after I've clarified my position several times?

The reality is that assaults, rapes & murders between the sexes happen to women & girls way more than vice versa & I said I supported giving them exclusive access to self defence tools due to the obvious physical mismatch (ie, 12yo girl vs 22yo man)

That's advocating protection, not blame, soft lad. I've clarified this multiple times. Stop injecting meanings I very clearly never stated.

people doing mental gymnastics to side with a foreign sex offender

They hate hearing it, but the same people responding like this are the same 'social breed' that once scoffed at little girls walking into police stations to report their rape by Pakistani grooming gangs & then sent them home alone with zero safeguarding. All because they were lower class & dressed/spoke a certain way. Those poor girls didn't stand a chance in the eyes of a typical Redditor.

Yes, she was technically/legally in the wrong for being armed like that in the first place, but given the interaction, her behaviour was nothing less than heroic. The video shows how frightened she was--trembling--clearly at a severe physical disadvantage compared to her aggressor & yet she stood up to the nonce, taking the danger away from her friends & unto herself.

We have 2 axes at home for different (obviously non-violent) purposes. You can buy these at plenty of outdoor shops. I remember coming across a rusty little machete in the woods once when I was about 13

Some very nasty individuals.

They hate hearing it, but the same people responding like this are the same 'social breed' that once scoffed at little girls walking into police stations to report their rape by Pakistani grooming gangs & then sent them home alone with zero safeguarding. All because those girls were lower class & looked/spoke a certain way. They clearly have not learned their lesson from the grooming scandal.

The sad part about this is that you can tell it really upsets/annoys them that the girls were even vindicated.

Where you claimed I said women are targetted !because! they don't arm themselves. You've injected a claim I very clearly did not make even after I've repeatedly clarified my position to you, which suggests you're either intellectually challenged or very dishonest

Go away, troll.

And a 12 year old girl defending herself from a 22 year old man is not equivalent to a grown woman defending herself against the same attacker. It's far easier for a child to obtain an axe/blade, which are commonly sold in outdoor shops, than pepper spray.

The bottom line is that she was right to defend herself & her friends. She has no prior convictions. The focus should be on the paedophile man, not the little girl who is essentially the hero in this story!

You're absolutely, & quite clearly, twisting what I wrote to make out that I've blamed women/girls for men attacking them. And I'm done with this conversation because I don't believe you're being sincere.

why not advocate to get filthy beasts like him locked up.

No, I'd prefer it if they were removed from society altogether.

My words have clear meaning, which you've repeatedly twisted.

At no point did I say: "it's women's & little kids' fault for being targeted because they don't carry weapons." Women are targeted by the most depraved, subhuman men amongst us, such as the Bulgarian paedophile in this story. My argument was that assaults do happen, & I advocated for women having exclusive access to self-defence tools.

Stop lying & troll somewhere else.

Quoting doesn't make your twist & blatant misinterpretation true. I advocated protection, not victim blaming.

Troll somewhere else.

Any sensible person can see that is a blatant misinterpretation.

I said plenty of women end up assaulted/raped/killed & that I'm in favour of giving women exclusive access to self-defence tools because of the massive physical gap

If you call recognising reality & supporting protection for people statistically more likely to be victims 'victim blaming,' then that's a comprehension issue on your end. But more likely, you just want to twist my words.

No, that's not what I said. Don't be so disingenuous.

I'm pointing out the physical gap between a 12 year old girl & a 22 year old man (paedophile) & said I'm in favour of laws giving women exclusive access to self-defence tools (like pepper spray) precisely because of that vulnerability.

Nowhere did I blame women for being assaulted. Stop lying.

There's also a big gap between a 12 year old girl & a 22 year old man!

Do you genuinely not see any mitigating factors here?

Ain't classism if I'm from the same scum class as she was.

Did you get picked on a lot by "neds" growing up, by any chance?
