You are a lot like someone else in this forum. He too asked that question. I laughed my ass off then as I am now. Haha.
Look, you're the one who wrongly used the word "rampant" to describe the supposed multitudes of people who are into choking each other during sex. Do you not grasp the difference between "niche" and "rampant"? And now you're referencing bdsm websites as the barometer for your false claim?...please.
Does the article not say how mainstream choking is now? How would one show you wise one that girls back in 2003 asked to be choked? It was rampant on campus and among millenials. The article even mentions how widespread it has become among millenials. I am a millenial. Are you?
That's the second time you've referenced age...why is that, what bearing does it have? lmao...You mean "millennial"?...I would think that if you claim to be something, you should at least know how to spell it.
Ok boomer. The bearing that it is, is that it obviously was not mainstream for older generations. It was, and has been for my age group. Oh no! The grammar police. Typing on one of those newfangled phone devices the kids use a word was misspelled. My God almighty. The horror.
Well, if you're going to be arrogant, it helps to also be accurate. BTW, your sphincter-tightening link/article also says; “Face slapping, choking, gagging and spitting has become the alpha and omega of any porn scene and not within a BDSM context,” she says. “These are presented as standard ways to have sex when, in fact, they are niches.” Don't you just hate it when that happens?...you know, when your own evidence comes back to "strangle" you?
Lol, referencing something I already pointed out to you. High five! When did arrogance come into play? You ok, bro? It also infers it is mainstream amongst millennials (thanks bro for the tip!) Don't you hate it when the internet can contradict itself and people have differing opinions in the same article? Or is this your first time on the interwebs?
My goodness, among other terms like "arrogance", you also really need to learn the difference between "standard" and "niche". And no, this is by no means my first time. All better now?
It may not be sick to you but it's very sick to me. I always find people who enjoy inflicting pain on others to be sick. I can't see any logical reason for that conclusion to ever change. Is it typical to find people who enjoy being the victims of pain? I certainly hope not. That's why we have laws.
Cool. I'm glad we can agree on domestic. I'm not for import either. Oh. And my post wasn't about whether he did it or how he did it. It was the fact that his wife and the accuser both forgave him. The two most affected by the alleged crime have forgiven him. Yet you and some others hold onto some higher moral ground that supersedes the victims. Let Kobe rest. If his victims can, why cant you?
His victim never forgave him she just refused to testify against him, there was a large settlement involved. Cash is king. His wife forgave him but of course she got a one Million dollar ring out of the deal and got to include herself in Kobe's $650 Million dollar estate which she has now inherited. Bill Clinton's wife forgave him for consensual sex that had nothing to do with rape yet his accusers continue to harass him today for comparison.
As far as I'm concerned, Kobe Bryant was a great basketball player, seemed like a decent person in terms of his public-facing, off-court persona but the rape allegation along with the sketchiness of the facts of the case hints that there's at least the possibility of some real darkness underneath. I'm not prepared to call him a rapist, but I'm far from certain that it didn't happen.
