People really need to stop misusing the term rape
It’s technically statutory rape, but yeah she’s more likely being groomed
statutory rape and forcible rape are different things sure with different levels of punishment, but both are predatory behaviors regardless.
I do kinda hate how stuff like this has the same term as someone physically forcing themself onto someone else. It's all bad but one is sooo much worse
It’s not a competition bro both are rape. Minors can’t consent
But apparently they can brag about it on social media…
Because kids/teenagers are dumb, immature and have not a fully developed brain. So yes, that only proves the point that they can’t consent.
side note: your brain doesn’t fully develop until you’re around 25
Dawg what??
i was 17 and had sex with my 18 year old girlfriend did i get raped ???
Bro a comment like this makes it hard to believe you've ever had a sexual experience. Now please don't feel pressured to correct me because I'm also guessing you're a child.
Do you know what Romeo and Juliet laws are? Did you think you were making a good point?
It’s not a competition, it’s the idea that physically forcing yourself upon somebody who is explicitly rejecting consent vs being with someone who is of the age that they cannot legally consent all falls under the same legal definition of rape, when one implies more violence than the other. It’s all gross either way
Minors? Why is the line at 18? An 18 yo fucking a 17 yo is rape no matter what? What about a 17yo fucking another 17yo? Is it double rape because neither can give consent?
Someone being held down and forced on against their will isn’t the same thing as some ditzy 17 yr old white girl getting involved with some 20 yr old rich athlete haha
But the age of consent can vary over literal miles. A person in the US can be legally banging in one spot but if it happened a few miles over the state border then it's now rape... Lumping that in with forceful rape is just wild and diminishes one of the actual worst offenses a human being can commit.
No it literally doesn’t because it’s not a competition. Unless the point your making is that an adult having sex with a minor isn’t that bad of a crime, which in that case turn yourself in bro
It's really not a big deal.
No point discussing nuance about these topics mate.
If you disagree with the crowd they'll just call you a p3do or ragist
"Statutory rape is nonforcible sexual activity in which one of the individuals is below the age of consent"
Age of consent in Australia is as low as 16, so I guess Giddey just messed up by coming to the US.
