Respone to Ilia

I heard about this story to on the radio actually going to work today. It’s a horrible situation. It seems this is all we hear about in the news these days. Priest molesting boys and older guys molesting and raping girls. It gets to a point where we as a society need to draw the line and do something about this. More often now is it publicized then it was back in the day. You make two valid points about Gender Intimidation and Sexual Assault. Both are two major things that go on in many of these cases. An 11-year-old girl cannot do much when a grown man is they’re trying to rape her. She feels powerless and defenseless. I am sure many times when the victim tries to fight back and it can end up worse! I totally agree with you as well. If someone is forced to have any contact with someone else without there consent that is some kind of assault charge. I remember in my one class we talked about this one time and a kid says well a person cannot be force to do anything they don’t want to do, they just use that excuse. I couldn’t believe someone could say such a thing, because many times a person has no choice but to do what the person is telling him or her to do. It gets to a point where this world is getting to be a horrible place and I hear older people say how much is changed. Most people can’t even let their kids outside by themselves anymore!
