(45,319 posts)My first comment on this thread was that every time one of these stories about older women messing with teen boys comes around I have to endure pundits and others who guffaw that they can't even imagine that any teen age boy would not love to do the same. It is the fact that such pundits and posters feel the need to state that even when thinking about it, they can't imagine that gay people exist. That's the message. All of them want strippers, all of them want to sleep with 'MILFS' and 'what kind of 16 year old boy wouldn't like that'? It all denies that there are gay kids.
Your terminology is crude and a stupid choice in this context, to say the least. But this kid you want me to ask, in your mind he would like that, in my mind the kid is gay, and would think of that party as 'why I had to get out of that town' material. That's kind of my point. You simply can't imagine (like the pundit) that any boy would like this, but I sure can. And I'm right, and that means that the pundit and yourself lack imagination, to put it kindly.
The age stuff is not anything I or you had been talking about and seems to be nothing more than a way for you to avoid speaking to what I am saying.
Treating a person like they were not there. That's what my first post was about. And it is what you are doing to me by repeatedly refusing to discuss what I said and instead demanding that I defend '18 being so special' which I never said. If you can't face the rhetorical heat, just back out of the kitchen, but don't come to me with some new subject arguing it as if I had spoken about it and demanding I answer questions from some point of view you assume I have.
