I have responded to your suggestion that I “Try to keep up”.

Whether you use quotation marks or simply indicate you are paraphrasing it is clear you need to do one or the other in the future to aid us “po dum folks” in “keeping up”

Try harder next time. One would think after 21 yrs you would have gotten it right.

Let's start over---

Here's the original comment I made:

I consider it extremely rude and offensive. Jailed and put on a perpetual sexual offender’s list? No. Fined and ordered to pay damages? Yes. The guy was a Youth Minister in some local church for goodness sakes! He certainly should lose that title.

So I'm saying only three things:

1. The guy shouldn't be put in jail or arrested.

2. He should be sued and pay the woman damages.

3. He was a youth minister and shouldn't be one any longer.

You then replied with this:

Yeah, ok I get it. You don’t want a strange guy pinching/grabbing your butt. Back in the day if a guy made an unwanted move such as this the woman would either give him a warning or else smack him in the face. That would end it. All the hyperventilating and gasping about how it destroys you is pure over the top bs. When I was a younger man I had my butt grabbed more than once by women. It was in the 70’s better known as the “sexy 70’s”. Women suddenly discovered they didn’t have to be coy and wait for the guy to make the first move and their sudden “liberation” caused many of them to act like children turned loose in a candy store. I never took offense and in fact felt complimented and thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

I said nothing about someone grabbing or pinching my butt, nor mentioned a single word about how it destroyed "me". BUT, someone else I was replying to, did. And actually, I never quoted anyone.

So it really did seem to me you were not being careful as to who you were replying to in the first place.
