Who Cares...??

[mudsticks]

Isn't the idea of putting yourself on Tinder to attract contact?

It does seem a high proportion of one cohort, but who knows, maybe she got thousands of would be suitors.

One thing's for sure, there will be a few miffed lasses - and lads - who only got a dozen replies.

Did you bother reading the article and listening to how she feels about it all.??

And try to take that in.

Especially after what happened to her at the vigil for Sarah.

But no, why bother doing that when you can just make puerile and dismissive remarks, about someone else's experience..

People are allowed to use dating apps , without being made to feel threatened.

Using them is a fairly standard practice nowadays.

No one is obligated, to answer any messages, they're designed to be secure , if they dont have the wellbeing of their users as a primary focus, then they don't last long.

You claim to care about women, and their safety, about respect for their rights and wellbeing.

But very little of that comes across, in what you write.

Particularly it would seem towards the only visible woman on here.
All the signs, are in fact to the contrary.

If people can't say anything constructive, or supportive, or insightful, they can just stay away from the conversation.

Aye, that's it, lower case m though.
Isn't that a grammar site rather than a dictionary.
I wouldn't know having never used it.

Yes m'lud. I believe you

The ellipsis is three dots, not two.
Except when used at the end of a sentence when it's four, to denote the full stop.

Couzens definitely is an odious individual, and as such people are knocking the Police telling us how they now feel the Police can't be trusted.

Nurses next I guess, as clearly killing the very most vulnerable in society is equally hideous? One or two policeman and the whole of policing gets trashed, one female nurse looks to have killed up to 20 children and I can't seem to find anything on here about the case at all.

Maybe you are right and women are treated differently? If we can't now trust male Police, then how can we trust female nurses?

One or two Policemen really ?
52% of officers found guilty of sexual misconduct in the UK between 2017-2020 got to keep their jobs.

Out of interest, 52% of what number and what proportion of police numbers does that represent?

The answer to both will always be way too many

Lucy Letby's case has not acquired the same coverage has it? . Although the trial is current it seems to be below the mainstream media's radar.

Did you bother reading the article and listening to how she feels about it all.??

No, mostly because the site wanted me to register.

If you are right about Tinder, then what's the problem?

Woman puts herself on dating app, gets loads of responses, but only replies to those she wants to.

Sounds fair enough to me.

Particularly it would seem towards the only visible woman on here.

You have posted dozens of snipes at my character in the rape 'discussion'.

Don't dish it out if you can't hack getting a bit back.

If people can't say anything constructive, or supportive, or insightful, they can just stay away from the conversation.

All you want is a cosy little echo chamber where everyone agrees with you and pats you on the back.

Once again, you are going to be disappointed.

But look on the bright side, I am giving you equal treatment from a gender equality point of view.

Well you're certainly succeeding on that front. This new site is like some bizarre student union meeting.

Don't comment on an article you haven't read then.
It makes you look ignorant.

Yeah right , cosy echo chamber , that just how CC feels - not.

There are plenty more cosy places than this.

I was asking for constructive comments, on how to tackle a problem.

Do you have any??

About these alleged 'dozens'' of snipes at your character??

Are these the same posts that can't be remembered after two minutes.??

In addition to your allegedly having no care for my opinions anyway??

I'm afraid you can't have it both ways.

There's a BBC link to the Patsy Stevens interview here:

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-58805186

If she was just another Tinder user getting disproportionate 'hits' from guys in uniform then I guess that's how the App works.

However this is happening after her well publicised arrest.

Although you could say the usual correlation/causation caveat applies it does look a bit fishy.

And just because the App is secure and 'matches' can be rejected doesn't mean she's safe. The reality is that she's likely to have enough of a social media presence for jigsaw ID to be possible.

Neither the new site , nor its content, nor even this thread, is down to me is it??

I wouldn't know about the 'student union' thing though there wasn't one at my college .

 

[Pale Rider]

I'm afraid you can't have it both ways.

No, you can't.

Time for a sit in. at least until the pubs open.

Just in case anyone forgot what the subject of the thread was...

At the end of this article, a woman leaving the vigil for murdered schoolteacher Sabina Nessa says.

"I feel really angry, I always feel unsafe, I hate that women can't walk the streets I want women not to be blamed"

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news...organised-across-uk-in-memory-of-sabina-nessa


Even being the assertive, and quite physically strong woman that I am , I do still feel nervous when I'm out and about by myself, in certain places, and if I encounter one or more men.

We can't tell by looking who is ok, and who isn't

Fwiw I just go and do stuff by myself anyway, and I've mainly been fine.

A few 'creeped out' moments , but on the whole I've been ok.

And I'm not letting a few barstewards spoil my solo adventuring fun.

Other women clearly don't feel so 'brave' and let's face it , why should they have to be 'brave' they're not murdering each other .

I regularly hear from women who are just building up their 'bravery' to go and do something by themselves.

We do have the right to go out and do things by ourselves yes??

Or not.?

Was being born a woman just 'bad luck' for us, so we should just 'suck up' this risk of abuse or murder.??

Yes I know, in fact, the risk from people known to us, is in fact statistically higher, another issue to tackle.

We've been suffering this for generations.

If we talk about it?

We're exaggerating, going on, or should just stay home, stay safe.

Which isn't it turns out always all that safe either .

Ok so cue the 'not all men'

Cue the 'men get attacked too, you know?'

However, this toxic masculinity which gives some men, some kind of entitlement to scare, harass, or do far worse to women, and alsother men, if it comes to it, needs to be tackled.

For everyone's sakes..men's too as it happens, it's not great for their MH either.

But it is down to men imo, educating and supporting their sons, and the same for each other.

Incel culture, violent pornography, and other horrible stuff, may either be a symptom, or an extra cause of all this, I don't know.

Im not a man, I can't understand why anyone could, or even why they would want to behave like this towards another human being,

Women shouldn't be scared to live their lives fully.

What can be, or is going to be, done about it??

Feel free to start other threads on other subjects.

As far as I know there's no limit on doing that
