From women as well as men. Is there any chance you might try to think rationally about this? There is potential for harm in over-reaction as well. I hope you don’t have sons and infect them with your beliefs about male sexuality, but then again, it wouldn’t likely to be any picnic to be your hysterically overprotected daughter, either.
Mostly you’re a moron. Paranoid moron maybe, but a moron nonetheless.
That’s the likely outcome of escalating the assumption that men are by default, paedophiles and rapists. At the very least, it will mean that harm comes to vulnerable people during the interval in which the man agonises over how to help without appearing sinister.
It happened when Your kind of witch hunters started to rage. Somewhere in the 1990’s I guess ( maybe that case in Belgium caused it? ). It’s a real phenomenon and I believe it’s getting worse.
In post #145 is My experience with this, it’s been years and it still bothers Me. I still don’t know for sure if that kid is dead or alive. And I find very little consolation from the fact that it was a boy, who - according to You - would have grown up to be a child abuser.
I’m absolutely sure that there really are many cases when some kid has died because the only person around to help was a male who was too scared to go near a kid. Who knows it later, the kid died and there was no-one else than that guy who won’t tell. So next time when a drowned kid is found somewhere, think about it. Was there some guy who got scared and fled the scene ( and later killed himself for feeling too much guilt over it ).
Also there was a summer helper in My working place, a female (16-18 years old, dunno, never asked and NEVER TOUCHED HER ). She told about her work in previous summer in a kindergarten. There was this four ( ! ) years old boy who was beating everybody and when she tried to make him stop, he screamed that he’s going to get her arrested for abusing him if she takes one more step. So it’s no just males who are in danger for Your kind of paranoids.
But that kid probably will be an abuser when he grows up 'cause his head was filled with thoughts of abuse - nice job, momma…
If I KEEP IT IN MY PANTS, how do I take a piss?
Must the SDMB teach EVERYTHING?
Well, now I’m all wet. Haven’t raped yet today, though.
I thought we already had Rape Month this year? Did I miss another announcement?
I’ve already stated some possible solutions in an earlier post.

Telling other posters to fuck themselves is a violation of the Pit’s language rules. Please avoid doing this in the future.

That show infuriates me. It should not be on the air, and while children’s pageants need not be abolished completely, the rules and regulations need a serious revamping.
Depends.
And you’ve ignored the refutations of your ridiculous “solutions”.
No, you haven’t. You’ve suggested women supervising men. Women have been known to molest children too, so now you’ve just run out of people to do the supervising.
Wow, a damn nightmare to wait until the next day’s newspapers? You really let your imagination take over that day, didn’t you? If the kid was on a lawn, I assume there was a house. You could have simply knocked on their door to alert the family or caretaker, and not had to approach the kid at all. Just my opinion.
Hotdiggity, I got it! Had to log in just to ask this. And LadyMadonna, don’t You even think to have dishonesty to ignore this.
So: if the vast majority of men want to abuse children, then why it is considered abuse at all? Who caused that way of thinking, why isn’t it considered just as innocent as having a doughnut?
50 % of men and many thousands of years of patriarchate should have done the trick.
Thank You for Your answer. I’m most eager to read it.
Btw You’re an idiot.
Okay. So we agree that the women associated with that show are behaving in ways that are counterproductive to healthy social relationships between kids and adults? We can try a similar example if we compile a list of female teachers recently convicted of sexual abuse, but it isn’t necessary to derail your rant with evidence that counters your POV, since all of us are aware that damning men is misguided and will cause more harm than good. So rage on, sister, and deal with the scorn your OP deserves. Or you could, instead, explore reasonable, feasible methods of teaching safety to kids.
Not to mention the sharpened cypress! Besides, it’s plain damn rude behavior.
Holy. Fucking. Shit.
You are completely fucking dangerously insane.
Yes, there was a house further but to get there I should have gone not only towards the kid but very close too. Unless I’d have gone around through the shrubs - to an empty looking house like a burglar or somebody who’s checking is there anybody to see a kidnapping. And that time the kid could have been run over.
