Whob made a point.
With a sock account, no less.
Billyjoebobsue was the pseudonym, I believe, or at least something similar to that (billybobjoesue, perhaps?).
You see, in one of the threads, whob commented that the sock had lost its virginity at the age of nine (I believe, I have been looking for the exact post but haven't been able to find it). The sock had apparently had sexual intercourse with a number of older men and now was allegedly going to elope with some 32-year-old to the Philippines. They also had adopted a child, it seems.
Anyay, I was extremely dismayed by the responses people posted.
Not one post of outrage was present. Not a single post of "What the ****?" Not a single post involving "He's a sexual predator...why hasn't someone told your parents and/or reported this to the police?" NOT A SINGLE POST. In fact, people were all yippee-skippy about ****ing tolerance.
WHAT IN THE BLOODY HELL IS THAT BULLSHIT.
We are talking about a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl running off with a child molester. And everyone's all accepting about it.
I edited my original post as I realized that there was no way in hell the sock could be in the actual situation, but I had not said anything against it. And that, my fellow posters, disturbs me. I was afraid of what KMC would say to whatever condemning response I might come up with. Isn't that silly? Afraid...of posters who don't even know me?
But that's what happened. Personally, I'm disgusted with myself, and I'm embarrassed about my action (well, inaction).
As the title says, whob made a point. A pointed point. Now, the question is, why did we do this? Accept the relationship, that is. Why wouldn't we be shocked and horrified by the prospect of a child molester running off with his "life partner" and a baby?
It seems inconceivable to me that any sane person would be accepting of this. But, unless people on KMC are insane--which I highly doubt--I can't think of a legitimate reason for this behavior.
