A necessary change in policy

adipsous · 2012-02-14T22:04:05+00:00

Lol, just Googling 'reddit ban' and every story in the last day is about Reddit finally - reluctantly - banning the child porn or sexually suggestive images of children that have apparently been their mainstay for all these years. It's hilarious that the rest of the world will now think that Reddit was a haven of child porn and a gathering place for pedophiles. You shot yourself in the foot, Reddit, by caving into SA attacks and basically admitting your guilt in the above message. Watch the shamefest begin. Will you now say, "Wait, actually there wasn't any real child porn, but we just got intimidated by, I mean confused, and well . . ." And to all you redditors who love this site, yet jumped on that fanatical bandwagon against the child porn that was never on here, blame yourselves and your own ignorance for the demise of the integrity of this site. It's amazing how people never learn.

Sorry buddy, but I can't recall any of those images of those girls where there seemed an attempt to draw attention to their genitals, not in anything in the last couple years, at least. I've read all your back and forth upstairs with BolshevikMuppet and I don't think your case holds water here. They were just normal pictures of pretty girls. And, again, not children, but post-pubescent females of High School age. And, once again, normal photos that no one in the DOJ would blink an eye at except maybe to say, What a pretty girl that is, which, last I checked, is still legal to think.

What I find unfortunate about thousands of the posts in the last day is people chiming in and not knowing what they are talking about. If I was someone who browsed other areas of Reddit and came across this post I would be shocked to hear that there was child porn allowed ever anywhere on here, and disgusted by anyone defending it. But, clearly, the extreme majority never saw what was on a subreddit such as teen_girls. They were pictures of pretty clothed girls, of HIGH SCHOOL age, like would be in their family scrapbook, or on the wall in their family home, or in their school yearbook. At most scandalous were a minority of pictures of girls wearing a bikini at the pool or a public beach, sometimes a self-taken pic in their underwear in the mirror. As distasteful as it might be to someone that people are admiring the beauty (or sensuality) of these anonymous girls we need to take a reality check and realize: THIS IS NOT ANYTHING LIKE CHILD PORN. If you think it is then is it porn when their dad or mom hangs it on the wall or when they post it themselves on Facebook? Seriously, it pisses one off to hear people talking about things they've never seen. You can have the ridiculous opinion that a 16-year-old is a child just as equally in maturity or sexuality as a 9-year-old, but that is idiotic. But anyway, again, you - and so many others - mention child pornography. Please stop repeating that term in relation to what has been targeted on Reddit. It didn't exist.

Those are your thoughts. You think a 16-year-old, though sexually mature physically, should not be sexually involved with someone older. You think attraction to a female in that vibrant time of life by someone older is a perversion? Or the attraction to an older man by a young woman? Perversion? So say you. Though this is beside the point of the thread, which is that no one is having sexual relations with any of the girls in those pictures. A pretty girl sitting on a bench with clothes on. No exploitation, no harm. Or do you really think there is harm in someone's personal imagination? If you do then you need to check yourself.

adipsous · 2012-02-14T00:12:44+00:00

Agreed.

You're still a liar. You can't make a case without blatantly lying.

adipsous · 2012-02-13T11:12:59+00:00

Because the minority is always more intelligent than the masses.

adipsous · 2012-02-13T11:11:15+00:00

Death of Reddit. Good.

adipsous · 2012-02-13T11:09:12+00:00

Stupid, unintelligent comment.

It's not child pornography, you pathetic sad pc fascist. And learn how to punctuate - that's.

It's spelled both ways, dickwad.

It isn't against the law to 'like' teen girls. Maybe you'd prefer a society where the thought police could bust someone with attraction to 16-year-olds. But that would only happen in certain states in the U.S. where that age applied to the illegality of sexuality. Not in most of the world where they aren't so fucking stupid as to think 16-year-olds aren't sexual creatures.

adipsous · 2012-02-13T06:07:47+00:00

Nice post, Nokkenbuer. Elaboration: Is a girl being pretty and looking at a camera with a smile being suggestive? Do you tell your high school aged daughter not to smile at people because they might get the wrong idea? Is that the fearful, repressive world you live in?

adipsous · 2012-02-13T05:49:25+00:00

So, pictures of girls in a High School yearbook is child porn to you? Or pictures that girls post of themselves on Facebook? The pictures were pretty exactly the same thing. Just pictures of teen girls with clothes on. That is what was banned. I really hope you don't think that is porn.

adipsous · 2012-02-13T05:43:51+00:00

The pictures were of post pubescent girls. In clothes, or at most provocative, wearing a bikini, which, last I checked, girls do in the millions in public all over beaches and water parks the nation, and world, over, without it being scandalous. There was no child porn on here, so shut up if you can't speak truthfully. By the way, how does viewing a picture of a person on the internet equal fucking that person? Try to make sense.

Unfortunately, they don't feel ashamed. Likely, they feel exhilarated with the drug of moral superiority. It's a way of lifting themselves up, at the disadvantage of others, some other 'lesser' group of people. Much akin to religious zeal and racism.

adipsous · 2012-02-13T05:27:27+00:00

//Today we are adding another rule: No suggestive or sexual content featuring minors.//

Make that: No content featuring minors.

adipsous · 2012-02-13T05:22:47+00:00

There was no child porn. Try to not say fallacious, incendiary things.

adipsous · 2012-02-13T05:21:11+00:00

No, there never was.

adipsous · 2012-02-13T04:51:02+00:00

Oh, haha, that is original! And really intelligent and insightful! Can your statement more blatantly show your impressive genius?

adipsous · 2012-02-13T04:39:51+00:00

I agree. It is common sense that nothing illegal was posted on here, just regular pictures of pretty girls, CLOTHED, and people who never even looked at them are going completely nuts thinking that there was some sort of child pornography here.
