-- Posted by lingerie gurl at 10:36 pm on July 13, 2008 I don't know why Moderators have not taken it down yet, but this is completely inappropriate, causing many members, including myself, distress, I believe LW members have made it clear that this topic should be removed. -- Posted by Bagheera at 10:36 pm on July 13, 2008 I can't, trust me, I would if I could. -- Posted by carracer at 10:37 pm on July 13, 2008 YES it is hurtful to any people both who were assaulted and who know people who were. if anything should be taken down it should be -- Posted by CaliKevin at 10:37 pm on July 13, 2008 The mods never do their job properly. -- Posted by chaosdisown at 10:37 pm on July 13, 2008 i think so too, srsly its not a good topic -- Posted by REDHOTCHEERIOS at 10:37 pm on July 13, 2008 I thought this is where u can talk about things like that???  I guess LW has changed huh? -- Posted by Bittersweetoxox at 10:37 pm on July 13, 2008 I agree. -- Posted by RedNoir at 10:37 pm on July 13, 2008 I agree with you 100%. The topic is very offensive, especially to rape victims. It should be removed immediately. -- Posted by Soren Kierkegaard at 10:37 pm on July 13, 2008 Agreed.  The topic is blatantly offensive and distasteful to victims of rape or any forcible action of those sorts. -- Posted by Aixi at 10:37 pm on July 13, 2008 I would be happy if it were removed. :| Maybe I shouldn't have replied in it. -- Posted by iwashere85 at 10:37 pm on July 13, 2008 I lied, sorry. :( -- Posted by carracer at 10:37 pm on July 13, 2008 Quote: from Blank black at 10:36 pm on July 13, 2008 I can't, trust me, I would if I could. WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?

It's not legit to post smartass remarks. And if people feel comfortable sharing their experiences, they don't have to. It's not up to us, it's up to the guidelines of the site, and stupidly worded questions asked out of curiosity aren't grounds for removing a thread. Or that's just how I see it. -- Posted by dreamweaver at 10:39 pm on July 13, 2008 I just did.

Thank you so much. -- Posted by Themakingofagod at 10:43 pm on July 13, 2008 It has nothing to do with a bad topic, there should be the ability to come out and receive help with rape issues, basically use the sites intended function, to support and help someone in a difficult situation.  It is being tainted by abuse, people basically not taking it seriously and not really even considering the emotional or psychological impact it causes on the victims and instead using it as basically a topic for points or to just rant.  If someone is having a problem, they should be able to come out with it in a serious manner and get support from it, but random topics including rape should be removed.  Free speech is one thing, but the last thing someone needs when they're trying to get help or support is to have some of their past demons come back to get thrown in their face. -- Posted by dreamweaver at 10:43 pm on July 13, 2008 Quote: from 2kewl4u2know at 1:38 am on July 14, 2008 Quote: from REDHOTCHEERIOS at 12:37 am on July 14, 2008 I thought this is where u can talk about things like that???  I guess LW has changed huh? If you read the post you'd understand. Indeed. The op asked specifically for rape survivors to talk about every little detail, which is rather very inappropriate to do, considering that many have issues even thinking about it as they were deeply traumatized by the incident. -- Posted by fullmooncurse at 10:59 pm on July 13, 2008 agreed -- Posted by Soren Kierkegaard at 11:12 pm on July 13, 2008 Quote: from dreamweaver at 10:43 pm on July 13, 2008 Quote: from 2kewl4u2know at 1:38 am on July 14, 2008 Quote: from REDHOTCHEERIOS at 12:37 am on July 14, 2008 I thought this is where u can talk about things like that???  I guess LW has changed huh?    If you read the post you'd understand. Indeed.

My guess is crude as to why they'd make a topic that obsene.  I think they were just fishing for fantasies otherwise as to possibly imagine the loss of personal freedom and control? Es tut mir leid if my hypothesis is offensive, nor have I ever meant to undermine anyone who has lived through a traumatic ordeal such as rape. -- Posted by dreamweaver at 11:34 pm on July 13, 2008 Well, some people can be rather close minded about such things and don't really realize how serious something may be. Personally, it just sounded like someone just didn't get how someone can be raped, which isn't much different from those people who don't get why some people self mutilate.
