Damn, I didn't realize anyone was actually reading these replies in a year-old thread.

A good number of people use the comments feed rather than reading threads directly, and thus don't even necessarily realize the replies are to older threads.

There's no need to detail how much a man pays for it in his personal life: the societal standard is that men are deficient in their personal lives so it is assumed by default even without being spelled out. It is only detailed for Hannah because it is exceptional in her case.

Sure, interpret "beat the shit out of" as "imposing serious fines on" or "giving multi-year prison sentences to" if that floats your boat. It's all pie in the sky anyway given our collective reluctance to actually protect boys and men from harm.

Probably the best bet is to beat the shit out of anyone shaming boys for being boys. Anime and similar media are just escapism for boys who never develop a healthy self-esteem because the culture around them views them as broken girls.

No, you are prioritizing one group of "real victims" (ie, women) over another.

because who's defending someone who would actually rape?

You are, by defending false accusers. The largely ignored part of the false accusation discussion is that threats of accusations of sexual impropriety are used as a means of social control by women over men, including use as coercion to "unwanted sex".

And then the fact that large-animal vets end up both being disproportionately male (relative to the field as a whole) and getting paid more gets blamed on male privilege so women can be "oppressed" even in a field where they are the overwhelming majority...

It was also unrealistic to expect that the men involved will all go on to conspire to carefully conceal the incident from all other women in the same social circle.

In my (limited) experience, men tend not to talk about their sex lives much while women seem to gossip about it constantly. I perhaps wouldn't expect the men to "conspire to carefully conceal the incident", but I also wouldn't expect them to ever bring it up in mixed company.

Probably not feminist per se--more likely this was just her sorority giving her the choice of "having been raped" or not being a sister anymore that then led to a feeding frenzy by people desperate to be seen as defending women. EDIT: And her getting dumped on for the rape allegations being part of her punishment.

It is untenable to let women freely put out without policing from society or men and to let them still go crying for redress, sympathy and a shotgun wedding when they don’t get what they want out of their investment.

I think this is missing a very critical aspect of this situation: she probably got what she wanted out of the investment and wouldn't have "gone crying for redress and sympathy" absent another necessary ingredient. Others saw an opportunity to exploit her experience for their own gain, and pushed her to "reinterpret" the situation to advance their agendas. She and the men directly involved are not the only degenerates in this story.

That I'll admit I missed and if you're right then mea culpa. I was mostly going off the two prompts that spawned this thread.

EDIT: Using that history to prohibit routine teenage sexual awkwardness is still quite a leap.

Japanese == anime

child-abuse enthusiasts == lolicon

This situation involves a multi-month long pattern of content involving material tamer than exists in Hollywood comedies. If that doesn't belong in the "fun thread", then I weep for our culture.

I think you misunderstood both my comments here. The change I was referring to was the cumulative change since 2019, of which this particular clarification is just a minor part. The "RIP TheMotte" was a tongue-in-cheek way of pointing out this "clarification" resolves an ambiguity in a direction that makes the forum less personally appealing. Not because it is a major change, but because it is indicative of the direction the wind is blowing. Which to be clear I'm not complaining about--as I said, you can't please everyone.

First: sex and sexuality topics are quintessential CW material and therefore banned from the Friday Fun Thread.

Does that apply to only explicit sexual topics, or does it include sexual innuendo as well? That is, would RoyGBivensAction's root comment be considered prohibited "sex and sexuality" under this ruling?

No, not dying. Merely evolving into something new, which inevitably involves changes some people view as a loss. It is impossible to please everyone.

Either way this appears to be a declaration of RIP TheMotte.

Is it too much to ask for hidden text privacy blocks for when you post with/about/pertaining to the sexualization of children?

Yes. This is a forum for posting controversial opinions and that includes controversial opinions that you personally find disgusting enough to warrant "privacy blocks" to avoid. The sidebar is a more than sufficient trigger warning that you may encounter such topics here.

You don't cull the horny men though--you cull the men whose social status isn't high enough to permit them to ignore the general ban on male horniness. Effectively you cull horny men who are highly conscientious and/or agreeable and select for horny men who aren't.

Do you think the human race must be non horny? Why?

Not the human race. Just the male subset. Women are allowed to be as horny as they want. Men must not act like women...

I think you are discounting how hard it is psychologically to commit suicide too much. It reads to me more like a botched attempt by someone who used escalating social bridge-burning to overcome her subconscious desire to live without actually having a thought-out plan and thus defaulted to a "Hollywood" plan when that threshold was finally reached after she murdered her kids.

A hallucination would be when the AI says there are two r's in strawberry

Strictly speaking I believe this was a translation error caused by tokenization, not a hallucination. It's like asking someone "How many strokes are in て?" and criticizing them for not recognizing you were referring to the kanji 手 when they get the "wrong" answer because 手 was translated to て before the question was presented to them.

Not to mention how many of the daycare dollars are "wasted" because the child is sick and thus forced to stay home to avoid spreading the infection, which is usually not reimbursed despite the child not being cared for by the daycare.

Do women actually take them seriously in the sense of believing them? All the women I've known that are into astrology/tarot/etc only take them seriously in the way "gamers" take video games seriously--they put in effort to do them well, but recognize it's just a form of social entertainment.

"False accusations [that result in criminal conviction] are incredibly rare." would also seem like a good analogy here.
