That's why we can't have the discussion. Anyone trying to bring it up in any context gets accused of pedophilia. Even when there is a legitimate point to be made.
In this case iirc the point was about infantilizing women of all ages and the negative impacts of the madonna-whore complex and how pretending women have no sexual desire is actually quite misogynistic.
But yeah. Nope, forbidden topic. Insta ban. At least they didn't make it permanent.
If you want to make a point that doesn't make people fill in sentences for you, I'd recommend against being vague.
My point was that it's impossible to make the point because people are hysterical.
I expected downvotes but did not anticipate the mods also being hysterical.
You didn't make a point. You vaguely said that it's taboo to say teenage girls have a sex drive (which hilariously, it isn't: see the popular books, TV shows, and movies regarding that).
My ban disagrees. All the downvoters disagree. The guy so butthurt about something else I said that he decided to brigade me here on a totally unrelated topic disagrees.
