attempt to slow down the victimization and brutalization of women.

I know many men think the porn stars and prostitutes and women in general deserve all the nasty attacks that come their way. Fortunately Allred is brave enough to try and slow it down or stop it. I wish more attorneys would step in.

3. Unfortunately, some are just ridiculous. No one asked these
women to answer or write to Weiner. IMHO, someone is milking this for all it's worth. You can't have things both ways. Uncensored internet or protection for perhaps underage women? It's a quandary. It is a mistake to color these women with innocence, when perhaps they aren't. A grown man should have known better, but that's the problem with unfettered access to the internet. The young are subjected to adult literature, magazines, tv and movies and internet. The cat is out of the bag.

20. "because an individual has threatened her with a release of another statement -
which purports to be from her, but which she has not authorized."

HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM wonder what that might be...

She doesn't want something she did or said to get out, I can't make it much clearer

22. what does that have to do with the other WOMEN?
jfc i'm not talking about the pornstar! how about the girl from WA state?

It is a mistake to color these women with innocence, when perhaps they aren't.

Gennette Cordova said she did not even think the photo was real.

It was nearly 9 p.m. on a Friday when Ms. Cordova, who was preparing to head out for the night with a friend, logged onto Twitter and discovered that Representative Anthony D. Weiner had sent her a suggestive photo of himself in gray boxer briefs.

“It didn’t make any sense,” Ms. Cordova, a 21-year-old college student in northwestern Washington State, said in her first extensive interview since Mr. Weiner confessed in a news conference Monday to sending her the photo. “I figured it must have been a fake.”

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/06/09/nyregion/weiners-pattern-turning-political-admirers-into-online-pursuits.html?_r=1

does it sound like she has something to hide? did she solicit AW for his dick pix?

7. no one asked wiener for a weiner, either. but lets NOT put any responsibility on weiner
and his behavior?

i can remember when this whole internet porn, adn really it is a good thing... started. the argument for everyone was of course the kids should not be involved in the adult world of porn. now, oh well. the kids can suck it up, deal with it.... it is our world baby. and anyone that does not like it, well you are fuckin prudes and puritanical.

25. How about we treat women with respect
and let them share the responsibility instead of turning them into victims? Responsibiity for what though? Engaging in Cyber Sex? They are all adults aren't they?

Edited on Fri Jun-10-11 12:39 PM by seabeyond
i am not going ot argue hard and strong here for this woman. i agree. some of those women were not engaging in cyber sex. they where talking politics, to a representitive. i dont hear you come to their defense. or give weiner his responsibility as a grown up public representative.

29. They haven't asked me to defend them. They appeared to have enjoyed their communcations
with him. They are grown women whose right to engage in cyber sex I respect, if that's what they're into.

Why would they need me to defend them? No one is attacking them that I can see for engaging in sexual games on the internet. If someone does, then I will defend their right to do so. People are doing this all over the internet. Should we make it illegal? To protect women?

Interesting though that while no one is finding fault with the women engaging in cyber sex, an awful lot of people are attacking the man and attempting to shift any responsibility those grown up women had to him.

Can't women make their own decisions? Are they helpless? Different standards for men and women? Did someone twist their arm, do they not have a 'delete this account button' on their keyboards? I do and use it often.

This was not in real life. Any time they wanted to stop, it was a click away with no danger to them at all. So, I assume they were enjoying themselves or they would have simply deleted his acct.

This is what I mean about infantalizing women while giving all the power to the man. I resent that because it implies that women are weak, mindless creatures who can't just click a 'delete' button on their keyboards because this man is so much more powerful he can control their minds. BS.

Now of course, with the media shamefully waving money in their faces and the sleazy Gloria Alred rushing to find a way to make them look like victims, a few of them will probably start the 'I'm a victim' game. Sorry, I won't be buying it. Not when all you have to do is click and voila, he's gone.

30. weiner hasnt asked you to defend him, and yet....
i havent talked about the women, because the women are not the issue. i can agree with what you say. but the women that were there for political conversation ad weiner sends a dick. but, that being said

i dont give a shit about weiner, his dick, hsi marriage (though i respect him less), or the other women. (cleaning house, typing fast, no edit). what i care about is a grown up, a working on old man, behaving like a juvenile, or worst an addicted compulsive person not able to control himself, losing his voice for our cause and putting dems in this position.

31. Weiner is being attacked, they are not. As soon as anyone attacks
them for engaging WILLINGLY which they did, in cyber sex, I WILL defend them.

He hasn't lost his voice at all. This is nonsense. His constituents overwhelmingly support him so he will most likely be reelected if he wants to be. I think after 14 years they know him and have decided that his personal sex life didn't interfere with his job and they don't care about it.

The only way he will lose his voice is if uptight people on the left, scared to death of the far right, once again cave to Andrew Breitbart instead of standing firmly against his filthy, perverted attacks on so many good Democrats.

I'm sorry, but you are struggling to find a way to claim that those women were somehow coerced into what they did.

but the women that were there for political conversation ad weiner sends a dick. And all they had to do was click 'delete' and go somewhere else. Trust me, some women actually like men's dicks!

And we are not sure that all of them were there for political conversation. At least one of them may have been there for other reasons. Possibly the one who has not yet been identified.

As someone who has been flirted with online on political forums, I went along sometimes, depending on who it was, and was very capable of stopping it, if it was someone I was not interested in. I don't understand this need to paint women as helpless, or easily led. We are not. We like sex as much as men do and sometimes we willingly engage in it. It's okay, we're not under assault most of the time. Most guys are pretty decent.

Have fun with the housework, I have to finish a project for work also, which is better than housework, that's for tomorrow :-(

19. Stop infantalizing women. I absolutely deplore the attempt
Edited on Fri Jun-10-11 11:31 AM by sabrina 1
every time grown women make decisions fully conscious of what they are doing, to try to pretend that they are victims. WE ARE NOT VICTIMS or CHILDREN. We are capable of deciding whether to engage in cyber sex or not, to have an affair with a married man or not. We do not need to be constantly 'protected'. What next, burqas?? Isn't that the purpose of burgas? To protect, poor, weak women from men'.

Who DIDN'T expect Gloria Alred to jump on the money train, if she thought there was some to be made and the cameras and the talk shows. As a woman I find her to be totally disgusting. Her whole role in life is to make women appear to be victims, for profit.

And the media of course will entertain her while they have yet another excuse to waste airtime on trivia rather than cover real news.

16. No one should have words attributed...
unless they actually said them... that said, I have to wonder how much of this constant stirring of the shit is bought and paid for by Brietbart.

As for their participation in the sexting... they are not victims if they keep coming back for more. Unless they are the victim of their own illness, and that's no one's fault.

17. Some would say...
The girl wanting to do it during the daily show was stalking Weiner. I say it takes to to tangle and she wanted to tangle. Weiner made a comment to the girl after she mentioned stalking him that Weiner said to please do so and stalk him. Victim my ass.
