Casual, attachment-free sex has existed for longer than humans have, and there's nothing inherently wrong with it.

Rape has existed through history as well. The fact that things have existed through history doesn’t make them moral.

It's riskier than not having casual sex, but that can be said about tons of things. There are a hundred things any one of us will do today that we'd be a little safer if we didn't do them. Like eating a burger or something.

Except eating high calorie and low nutritional value foods is pretty much universally thought of as a vice. You can’t exactly equate promiscuity with something people think of as a vice as evidence promiscuity shouldn't be thought of as a vice.

I was reacting to that "old fashioned" moral rectitude whose demise you were bemoaning. It was purely cosmetic, hiding slavery, rape, racism, mysogyny, genocide, and so on. Spare us the "good old days". They really weren't all that great for many. In the aggregate, we really are better off now than in the good old days.

Your post indicates a significant lack of understanding of the issues of morality.

And "mysogyny" as an argument about the state of the world thousands of years ago?


Get out of here with that nonsense. It has, literally, no place in this discussion.

That was the other poster who talked about moral codes. I agreed with him that multiple sex partners and a culture of sexual freedom increase the likelihood of bad things happening.

Doesn’t mean they are to blame for bad things happening to them because of it.

I didn’t say they are. Though sometimes they are. Depends on the situation.

This woman is full of sh*t if it wasn't obvious since last night.

She deserves jail time for this con. A precedent needs to be set to prevent groupies from pulling this crap again.

 

[Silver Blue&Red]

I have a sneaking suspicion her honeymoon will be spent getting coached for NFL investigators.
Lying or not.

 

[SBLIII]

the plot thickens.

I'd also bet that, whatever the baseline number is, it's substantially higher for wealthy public figures. Which is just another way of saying that even if only 2% of accusations are false, that doesn't mean there's only a 2% chance that this one is. ****, he wouldn't even be the only current Patriots WR to be hit with a false accusation.

Which is basically just all the more reason to withhold judgment of both the accuser and accused and see what facts come out.

This is pretty obviously the case. Considering it was mentioned that both Moss and Edelman were falsely accused of sexual assault. So unless there are another 98 Patriots receivers sitting in jail for rape...

Watch for that account to be quickly banned, and you might want to save the videos for posterity, if that's your sort of inclination with regards to re-posting what might be evidence.

I side on giving the accuser a lot of the benefit of the doubt in cases of sexual assault allegations. But if the accuser hasn't tried to file criminal charges for allegations where the statutes of limitations haven't run out while filing civil charges, it does raise a red flag for me. I doesn't mean she is lying, but I gotta wonder why she would be willing to go through a civil case and what should be a torturous deposition yet not be willing to go through a criminal trial where there are protections for the victim. As a plaintiff in civil trial, virtually nothing about her private life and past sexual history is off limits in a deposition and possibly in a trial.

I still won't dismiss her case as a money grab as of right now, but she will need to explain at some point (not necessarily to the public) why she would seek monetary justice rather than criminal justice if she never tried to file a criminal complaint.

She has a right to be heard and Brown has a right to defend himself. Unfortunately, this could come down to a he said/she said and we will never know for sure who is telling the truth.

And in a criminal case, the burden of proof falls on the “victim”.

This woman is full of sh*t if it wasn't obvious since last night.

Neymar’s accuser has been charged with extortion so that’s a start.

 

[Bobsyouruncle]

It’s entirely possible that Brown simply led this woman to believe that he might be interested in her investment in order to sleep with her. While that’s not illegal it’s not what I think a good person would do. It may have been casual to him but not to her.

"In excess of $75000" is a legal standard. The award amount requested is likely much more.

So 75$k ? Not great not terrible.

 

[MainePatsFan26]

And that was after an actual arrest. That’s way beyond where Brown is right now.

The NFL will probably put Brown on the exempt list even if they don't believe his accuser. And it won't even be an "anti-Patriots" thing. Rather, Goodell will want to send a message to players that if they "game" the system, like Brown did with the Raiders, there will be consequences. Look for ownership to encourage people to come out of the woodwork when players -- particularly black ones that the media loves to bash -- step out of line with ownership.

It means shes suing for at least that much. That's just the legal threshold for where she has to file.

The Pittsburgh DA had to confirm that Brown is indeed not a child rapist.

Beautiful

Well, since you desire to continue this particular discussion, mysogyny didn't go away a thousand years ago, or even a hundred years ago, or even now. My point, which I obviously failed to make to you (we can obviously disagree on where the fault lies), is that NOW is a better time for human conditions than in the past, be it a decade, a century, or even a millennia ago. I totally reject the claims of the good old days; they really weren't.
