Re: Lil Nas X’s New Song

When you traumatize a whole generation (and more) of kids with the concept of a literal hell (something Jesus never preached) don’t be surprised if they grow up, realize it was a control technique and then use the imagery to make a point in their art.

[Ashley Easter @ashleymeaster]

@danwhitejr You’re focusing on one word instead of the argument itself. If “push” isn’t your preferred verb, substitute “encourage,” “urge,” or “persuade.” My point remains: why should young people who feel unsafe be expected to enter facilitated conversations before they’re ready?

[Ashley Easter @ashleymeaster]

@danwhitejr This is the definition I’m using of “push”

[Ashley Easter @ashleymeaster]

@danwhitejr That’s fine if they consent and fee safe to it but your post made it sound like you were pushing for young people who feel unsafe to engage with people who voted for an admitted sexual predator when they don’t feel comfortable.

[Ashley Easter @ashleymeaster]

@danwhitejr Or it might just be trauma being triggered and young people wanting to be in spaces where everyone respects human rights.

Not saying conversations should not happen but the older people should lead that if the younger people are feeling unsafe.

@DavidEdgington Tell me you have a small pp without telling me you have a small pp.

@MBurtwrites With adult BDSM it’s consensual… hitting children’s private areas can never be consensual.

[Ashley Easter @ashleymeaster]

@MBurtwrites I don’t understand how spanking-parents don’t see how sexual this all sounds… stripping, spanking, power/control. Literal erotic literature describes what parents do on the daily. Just because a parent might not get off on spanking doesn’t make it not hitting an erogenous zone.

@ChristaBrown777 is one of the bravest women I know. Lovingly called "the mother of all abuse exposé bloggers," she has led the way for many in the survivor advocacy world.

Anything she writes is worth the read, especially this.

@RaynCS14 @ApostateAlex @TEDx I'm sorry about everything you've gone through. Abuse is so common in religious places. If you watch the whole talk you'll see the criteria for a cult.

[Ashley Easter @ashleymeaster]

@ChristaBrown777 @dkpooler Sending you so much love! You are impacting so many. Glad I could play a part in this.

[Christa Brown @ChristaBrown777]

A powerful & vulnerable discussion about the dynamics of adult clergy sexual abuse & the hurdles faced by secondary survivors (spouses, families). Moderated by @dkpooler with great insights from @ashleymeaster & others. #ChurchToo https://t.co/JbYedl6ckt

[Julie Anne Smith @DefendTheSheep]

@ashleymeaster's TEDx talk is excellent. This is a great overview of how high-controlling groups are successful at luring unsuspecting victims, and how they can maintain that control.
