@75opinionated@JennMGreenberg Other students in class asked to hold an intervention. They told her a real man wouldn’t want to date a 13-yr old, that he was a pervert who wanted in to her pants. They told her they’d talk to her parents; she could sleep over at one of their houses if necessary. 2/2
@75opinionated@JennMGreenberg Similar thing happened with a former student. She was 13; he was 22 and the youth minister at their church. Her parents were happy he was a “Christian” who wouldn’t take advantage of her. 1/2
@JenniferJo74351@JennMGreenberg According to law as it is now, you weren’t old enough to make those kinds of decisions. You were a victim because your ability to reason hadn’t really kicked in yet.
@booth4481 @JennMGreenberg If an age gap of less than 10 years bores you, then how many women in their 40s have you dated? The age gap issue should work in both directions if you’re being honest.
@notabrokenthing I didn't have to be pro-choice/pro-life. I grew up in a time when you did you and it was no one's business what you did. Now I'm pro-choice because I still believe it's no one's business what you choose.
@ask_aubry "If respecting women (and men having self-respect) is conditional upon women putting on more clothes, then what is being respected isn't women, it's the clothes."
@thecindynoir We have had students who "date" in the restrooms (complete with oral sex)--Children in question were in 6th grade. We had one entrepreneurial 6th grader who sold blow jobs ($5 a pop). Oddly enough, their parents get upset because we *don't* monitor kids enough in the restroom.
@MoistenedTart @ABQLD When I was 18 and flying home for Thanksgiving from college, an older man sat next to me and we started chatting. Eventually he asked me out because I looked like his granddaughter. I've always wondered about the granddaughter. Is she safe?
Just watched @20DaysMariupol . Listening to Q&A. Reeling in feelings. I wish I could say it’s historic but it’s the present. It’s now. Poor Ukraine.
I'm discovering I'm much more against book bans than most of my peers.
Maybe it's because they don't think they're banning books when they limit book access.
