: you're so wise, derf.

Hi guys

I'm had just enough alcohol to have the courage to write this - but please, if you have delicate sensibilities - don't read any further....

I emailed Becca to remove the posts because I found them personally beyond distasteful because of my own experience....

What may seem like a teenage prank to you Derf, is altogether too difficult for the likes of me to handle.

It may seem like the typical odd-ball prank to play - to imagine, within the safe confines of one's imagination, just what it would be like to 'drink urine' for instance....but I have been in a situation where I was forced to do such an thing - in reality. It's no joke, believe me. This is exactly the kind of thing that happens when an unbalanced mind becomes unhinged enough to transfer itself into a sick kind of reality that is perpetrated onto another innocent party - as was the case with me. The human mind can envision all sorts of sick and perverse scenarios. Left unchecked - it transfers itself into stark reality - usually at someone else's expense - and is exactly the sort of thing that leads to the kind of crimes of which I became a victim. I don't have the luxury of thinking that 'these things only ever happen to someone else'. They have happened to me and no longer am I prepared to overlook them when I find them - but to speak out and say a resounding "NO". It is NOT acceptable behaviour in any sense. I am NOT prepared to 'let it slide' as a harmless prank. It is exactly this kind of lax attitude that allows these things to slip through the cracks unchecked.

This is not the forum for such fantasies. I would even venture to say that no forum is.

I would be the first to admit that I have a problem with this. It IS something about which I am highly sensitive....but for good reason. If someone had said "No" to the man who raped me about these kind of things - then maybe he wouldn't have done what he did to me....who knows. I DO know that I MUST speak out whenever I see this kind of thing. It must never go unchecked.
