Guy is gonna look back on this moment for the rest of his life and kick himself
Being sexually harassed by two people who refuse to respect boundaries while peers, friends, and school administrators look on and laugh was the “comically terrible” situation in 2006. Given the content of this meme, nothing has changed; which, in itself, is a sad statement about our society.
I felt something against your comment until I eventually realized you were right
you were right
The greatest din of all. You find the tree, I’ll buy the rope.
Reminds me of the double standard with teacher sexual abuse. Male teacher abuses student, pedophile. Female teacher abuses student, “wish I was him” (unless she was deemed ugly, and even then).
Things don’t change much, although it doesn’t help when people forget men can be victimized, too.
An the equally double standard for the victims over 15; “girl must have been asking for it, what a slut” vs “bOyS cAnT bE rApEd because they enjoy it, good for him”
I occasionally wonder whether this is universal. Are there any countries that generally recognize sexual assault regardless of circumstance or sex?
Iceland probably has the best track record. Their culture, size, location, etc just add up to make a country where workers rights, freedom of speech and equality is very good.
You must be fun at parties
Yeah the pro rapey types are much more fun at parties… Don’t fret, there are plenty of them still.
I think you’re taking the drake and Josh memes too seriously
That Bieber cut was the broccoli top of its day.
Bieber hair is so default man that it was the second hair piece Lego ever made, back in 1979. Back then, it was called Beatles hair.
They are not comparable at all.
Bieber’s first album didn’t release until 2010. This look was just fairly ubiquitous among teens and 20s hearthrobs in the 2000s.
cna confirm. I had the hairstyle a couple years before we ever heard of Bieber, after that happened the comments were so constant I grew it even longer lol
also had the boot cuts
As someone who lived through 2006, I can assure you I would have enjoyed being in this situation then just as much as I would now, possibly more.
If you lived through 2006 then you’re too old to enjoy having a couple of highschool goths fawn over you 😏
Sign me up.
Man this hits different when you know what Drake was going through at that time
For those who don’t… care to enlighten us?
Drake was a victim of sexual assault by his acting coach during his time at Nickelodeon. Dan Schneider was also the creator and producer of the show. There’s a Netflix documentary on how bad things got.
Per Quiet on Set, at roughly that time in his life he was
being regularly raped and otherwise abused by Dialogue Coach Brian Peck who worked for Nickelodeon at the time Wikipedia: Drake Bell Wikipedia: Brian Peck Wikipedia: Quiet on Set
As a teenager I would’ve been so shy and irritated by that sort of scenario. As a grown man now with much more confidence and life experience, I’d straight up ask them if they wanted to bang.
What if they were just doing it to make fun?
I remember being in gym class, secondary school a few decades ago and these two sexually prolific girls for lack of a better term, moderately popular, who would spend gym classes flirting and basically sexually molesting? (Idk what term to use when clothes are on) this nerdy kid most days in gym. Teacher only seemed to laugh when he noticed.
They would feel him up and tell him his balls were small or penis was crooked. It was fucked up.
Yeah, it definitely happens for malicious reasons sometimes, in which case it would be a very bad case of bullying. In fact, it’s a particularly cruel form of psychological bullying. It’s painful for a young man to be made to feel worthless and inadequate by girls.
As a middle schooler, I thought the idea of nonconsensual harassment was pretty hot. I still feel that way, but I thought it back then too.
Still don’t think such should be tolerated just because I liked it. Also, when there’s a credible threat vs minimal in-school harassment, its a lot scarier (although its still hot).
…then I grew up, and realized you can have consensual harassment.
I mean, looking at the guy here this tracks with what high school was like in my day. Preppies and Goths were sworn enemies…
It’s like that movie She’s Out of My League where we’re supposed to buy Krysten Ritter as the ugly friend.
Both genders 9/10 they were trendies about 6 months ago with 0 personality. You didn’t miss out
