Title: I feel so old right now.
Post by: canoftuna on October 26, 2008, 04:31:27 AM
Understandably, I'm going to make all of you feel older just by reading this post, but whatever.

I'm nearly 22, but I've always carried myself considerably older than my actual age. Even now, I consider people in their 20's to be "young," considering most of my friends are at least 30. I'm the oldest sibling, and I'm not exactly my a fan of my parents, so once I graduated, I got the hell of out there.

Anyhow, enough of a backstory. My little sister, my baby sister. She's 16. And she just posted some pictures of an older guy on top of her, making out and groping her on myspace. Now, just the other day, she was telling me about this 19-year-old guy interested in her. Said she was "the one" for him, but he didn't want any commitments because he wasn't ready for a relationship. But she told me she saw him fondling another girl just a week before, so she agreed with me that he just wanted sex from her.

And there he is. On her myspace. She's 16! And worse, she's very young for her age, mentally and physically. She's very, very naive, and unknowingly lets people walk all over her consistently.

The thing that kills me, are my parents. My dad and stepmother have myspaces. They know what's going on. My older stepsisters both had babies in high school, one at 14, and one at 15. They won't do anything about this little punk that's trying to use my baby sister for sex, and because I got as far away from them as I could, I'm too far away to do anything myself.

Agh! I'm livid!

Society sexualizes people at earlier and earlier ages. You haven't seen 12 year old girls picking out hot pink shorts with "Juicy" written over the ass while her mom just nods?

Society
Hell
Handbasket

First question.  Do you somehow believe that your sister is sacred and should be touched by no one until after her wedding?

Second question.  Isn't it a bit presumptious to assume that you know the inside of her head well enough to know that she had no say in the matter and is an innocent victim?  It is very possible that she knew exactly what she was doing.  I mean, you did say that you had a conversation wherein she ackowledged that he is after sex.  Any sexual behavior after that can't possibly be an 'accident'.

Third question.  Is she developmentally disabled or something?  You say she's mentally and physically young for 16, and naive on top of that.  ALL 16 year olds are naive.  And maybe she's not as "young" as you seem to think she is (or want her to be).

If she was your brother would you react differently?

How could she be both her sister and her brother?

True, but I was born there and I listen to Michael Savage sometimes. Does that count?

Sin Francisco. San Franpsycho. San Franfreakshow.

(I think the last one is mine.)

It beacons.

Down to LA silly.  I would take Ian down to behind the Orange Curtain to finally meet his new cousin who was born last April.
