Possibly the funniest paragraph ever written in a court opinion:

In the fall of 2021, Complainant, [Appellant] Dawson's 14-year-old daughter, asked him if she could go to her boyfriend's house. Dawson agreed but conditioned his permission on her letting him “eat her out”. Sometime after, on a day when Complainant stayed home from school, Dawson acted on this.

Source (found on this government webpage, though you would be forgiven for expecting a link to ArchiveOfOurOwn or Literotica)

I misread this at first. I had thought the daughter said "eat me" as a retort. That would have been twisted-sitcom funny.

No, this was a proposition from the father from the start. We do not share the same sense of humor.

Yeah, I don't think some guy doing sexual things with his daughter is funny either. More, "wow there are some degenerate people in this world".

Speaking of, which one of you degenerates created asstr.xyz and then stopped maintaining it? It is dead.

There's an Internet archive copy from ??? https://web.archive.org/web/20220621041856/https://asstr.org/main.html

Link from the ATF wiki, which amazingly was the 2nd Google result for asstr

Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Child Porn?

The more moral ATF that at least pretends they don't want to bang your kids (not the government one--the pedophile forum)

Did the judge rule on whether it's gay to eat out your daughter after she's had sex with her boyfriend?

I dunno man, seems kinda gay to me.

What is this place?

This website is a place for people who want to move past shady thinking and test their ideas in a court of people who don't all share the same biases. Our goal is to optimize for light, not heat; this is a group effort, and all commentators are asked to do their part.

The weekly Culture War threads host the most controversial topics and are the most visible aspect of The Motte. However, many other topics are appropriate here. We encourage people to post anything related to science, politics, or philosophy; if in doubt, post!

Check out The Vault for an archive of old quality posts. You are encouraged to crosspost these elsewhere.


Why are you called The Motte?

A motte is a stone keep on a raised earthwork common in early medieval fortifications. More pertinently, it's an element in a rhetorical move called a "Motte-and-Bailey", originally identified by philosopher Nicholas Shackel. It describes the tendency in discourse for people to move from a controversial but high value claim to a defensible but less exciting one upon any resistance to the former. He likens this to the medieval fortification, where a desirable land (the bailey) is abandoned when in danger for the more easily defended motte. In Shackel's words, "The Motte represents the defensible but undesired propositions to which one retreats when hard pressed."

On The Motte, always attempt to remain inside your defensible territory, even if you are not being pressed.


New post guidelines

If you're posting something that isn't related to the culture war, we encourage you to post a thread for it. A submission statement is highly appreciated, but isn't necessary for text posts or links to largely-text posts such as blogs or news articles; if we're unsure of the value of your post, we might remove it until you add a submission statement. A submission statement is required for non-text sources (videos, podcasts, images).

Culture war posts go in the culture war thread; all links must either include a submission statement or significant commentary. Bare links without those will be removed.

If in doubt, please post it!
