[QUOTE="Ome, post: 88187, member: 2"] Could the same be said for you? That it's obvious that you don't have a clue what it's like being a man in a world where someone quotes this "When is it time for men to discuss these issues with other men"? I don't feel ill, but I do feel like you're belittling men when you imply all men need to stand up and speak for the victims of abuse. It comes across like you are saying no man speaks up against this. Times are changing Emelee, life is evolving all the time. Over here in the UK we have had some of the biggest sex scandal stories to come out of the 70s and 80s where it was seen as okay to abuse [U]boys [/U]and girls by some of our countries respected celebrities, be it radio DJs or TV presenters. No one challenged these guys at the time because they felt no one would listen and that's already been proven. What has happened is horrific and the perpetrators are being punished. It certainly isn't over, but at least there are signs of this stopping within large corporations. One thing that needs to be noted - You will never wipe of sexual abuse any more than you could wipe out killers and drug pushers. Yes, some men are pure evil and vile, but guess what? Some women are also evil and vile. You shouldn't feel [U]appalled[/U] or [U]sickened[/U] by the replies in this topic, what you should do is try and understand the points others are making and look closer to how your view is coming across. :) Just to note Karin, not [I]every[/I] man in the US voted for Trump, nor does [I]every[/I] man in the US not understand and acknowledge the problem, any more than they this it's okay to treat women like sex objects. Just because there is a bad apple in the fruit basket, doesn't mean that all the fruits are bad. [/QUOTE]
