The root of the problem is that people think it's just fine to support laws which destroy people's lives with Zero Rational Justification.
He says 17. Okay. But he has NO REASON for 17. and he doesn't care.
He thinks it's fine to have no reason.

Age discrimination can at best address a *tiny fraction* of the problem.
When you call someone a creep are you, in fact, bullying them?
We can be more aware of when and how we are justifying terrible behavior toward the socially inept who annoy us, but aren't really hurting anyone.

The existence of one extremely stupid rule does NOT ever justify applying that same idiocy in other areas of our lives.
Don't be this moron.
Pleasantly surprised to see how good this old forgotten video of mine is
#Rewatch #Nostalgia
YouTube banned my vid, but it's still up on PeerTube...
While reviewing some kinky anime, this YouTuber does a comedy riff and accidentally exposes massive Puritan self-deception
Thanks to Thaddeus Russell for being a voice of reason in this bizarre interaction.

Relay operators today preparing for millions of note imports, thanks nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft
exit.pub is just a blank page
nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft does it again. And the steps. đ
It doesn't work.
It's just a blank page.
Neurology Fuels Bigotry

We can stop the hate.

When teenagers got reclassified as children, taboos expanded and cognitive dissonance began to flourish as never before.
It's like Twitter but with less than 100 users
The âbrain fully developedâ thing is a really stupid urban myth. It has been thoroughly debunked.
In fact in many ways the teenage brain is superior to older brains. Arguably our brains decay from about age 13 on.
Power imbalance arguments are nonsense because
existence of power =/= abuse of power
and even if it did (which it obviously doesnât) we still have no way to measure power. As in the example above. Maybe he was exploiting her, or maybe the other way round. Or maybe no one was exploiting anyone and they were just in love.
We can read tabloids and be judgemental weasels 'till the cows come home and it doesnât really matter, but if people are claiming that âpower dynamicsâ prove that sex is rape, well now weâre talking about a serious felony. It would be atrocious to put someone in prison based on the absurd bullshit people yap about power imbalances.
Itâs okay to admit that the human body is sexual. Itâs okay to admit that lots of art has sexy bodies in it. Sexual is not something that only exists in the minds of perverts.
Sarah Silverman shows us the bizarre new #PuritanRevival ideology.
Elvis was the demon
Everybody said that Elvis moving his hips on stage was causing terrible harm :-)
Every generation has some idiotic bogey man which is sexual and destroying society :-)
Today itâs âsexualized cultureâ :-D
Sexy has positive connotations. Sexual is neutral. Sexualized has negative connotations.
The first two have been almost completely replaced by the third over the last 20 years. Itâs a profound change in the way we perceive the world.
I went to high school in the 1980s, and everyone was saying all the same things back then too.
I have absolutely no doubt that this exact same message was conveyed in the 70s, in the 60s, in the 50s⊠people are ALWAYS complaining âThereâs too much sex in media these days.â
A radical change in the way we see ourselves, our bodies, and sexuality, and normal human interactions, coincides with the meteoric rise of the word âsexualizeâ
