I am sure that Bill Cosby is probably going to be found guilty of something in court. He certainly seemed to be a guy that enjoyed his Jell-O and probably did some bad stuff.
But a comment from my wife made me think a bit: Back in the 1970s, party at the playboy mansion, attractive young woman, dressed to attract, doing drugs, drinking and partying the the fancy people. They really expected that nobody would hit on them? They really expected the guys to “control their thoughts”? They really expected that sex didn’t happen there? Seriously? Like getting asked to a barbecue but you are only expected to smell the food?

If under the current "everything is sexual assault" mentality were in play back when loose women and questionable antics. How many would be "rapists" and guilty of "sexual assault" Ever notice how poor or non powerful guys rarely have 30 year old accusations? Theres a reason for that. Ill admit, in grade school, I did "tune in tokyo" and played kissing tag (this is now considered rape) In highschool I had lots of sex with intoxicated girls when I was 18, I literally was raped by a woman 30 years older than me (date rape by todays standards) We played slap ass at parties, wet tshirt contests, streaking, etc (all sexual assault by todays standard) On Thu, Dec 7, 2017 at 10:44 AM, Robert <[email protected]> wrote: Like most spouses, she has you hornswaggled for 35 years...

Seems like the next logical step would be a compatibility matrix. You are only allowed to interact with a potential date if you have >90% compatibility. Otherwise your advances would be moot, and therefore unwanted. Proximity devices would allow you to go into a club, and see all potential matches nearby. As you approach, their name badge would either turn green or red. If you get too close to a Red, it will start flashing, thereby alerting all close by to be on the lookout for potential harassing behavior. On 12/7/2017 9:46 AM, Bill Prince wrote: Yeah.

It is a matter degree. Unwanted attention, unwanted proximity, unwanted touching. Until the girl decided the kid is OK then the playing hard to get games morphs into no=yes and so forth. Is a kid screwing up his courage to go in for a kiss at the end of a date risking becoming a criminal? Hitting a good looking woman is now considered sexual predation. NPR had a good example. Good looking woman at a party. George Clooney and Steve Buscemi both hit on her at different times. Both use the exact same words. Perhaps different deliveries but the exact same words. The woman is mesmerized by the attention by George and feels harassed by Buscemi.

He raised fryers. Those chickens you get at KFC. They were allowed to run around in a very large room. Thousands of them per room, maybe tens of thousands. He had lots of buildings with rooms like that. There was this tiny conveyer of chicken feed (maybe 3 inches wide) that snaked round the room so they were never farther than a dozen steps from food. I think it took 6 or 8 weeks from hatching before they were ready for market. Toward the end of their existence they would get so heavy they would just park and the conveyer and not really move. I don’t recall how they got water (this was 50 years ago). If one got injured somehow, perhaps getting something caught in the conveyer or whatever, if there was a single spot of blood, the other chickens would notice and in short order peck the injured chicken to death. Even a dot of red ink was enough. They would pile on and do them in. I see some parallels. Humans are chickens sometimes.
