As she walked the aisles, MR said in an interview, she sensed a man standing close behind her. She turned to confront him and noticed that he was a good six inches taller than her. He was talking in graphic detail about sexual things he wanted to do to her. “You’re so disgusting, get away from me,” she told him, and hurried off to find her friend.
Still, he stayed close, and for a few tense minutes the two of them locked eyes while she waited in line to pay. When at last he left, she thought that was the end of it – until, back outside in the chill of the winter morning, she felt something cold against the back of her leggings.
The man had ejaculated on her.
“I didn’t know how to react. I wanted to kill this man,” said MR, who was 47 at the time, recalling the horror and helplessness she felt as her friend wiped her off with towels. (The Guardian has verified MR’s identity but is not publishing her full name to protect her privacy.)
Hours later, on the advice of a sister who worked in law enforcement, she fished her soiled leggings out of the garbage and took them back to the store to report what had happened. A clerk listened to her account and, not seeming to realize that MR understood Spanish, shouted to a colleague in a backroom: “Tenemos otra.”
“We’ve got another one.”
What the fuck are you talking about? I’m just disagreeing that it says the article says they’re posted to “gooner communities.” It lists three specific locations and never mentions “gooner communities.” You mentioned that yourself.
They absolutely talk about gooners posting the videos of these attacks on those sites. Those specific locations aren’t immune from gooners posting on those sites.
Why are you going so hard to defend gooners here when we’re all very specifically talking about men in these communities who go out in public and assault women in order to share with those communities? That doesn’t mean all gooners are doing this.
If you don’t get why it’s concerning to me to equate “gooner” with “sexual assaulter” then reread my first comment here where I laid it out very plainly. If the headline was something like “the worrying trend amongst bondage enthusiasts murdering women” I’d have the same issues. It’s part of a broader trend of society demonizing and othering any sort of kink. There’s nothing inherently wrong with gooning. There’s a lot that’s very wrong about sexual assault.
I mean, for fuck’s sake, the article cites evolutionary biology as a reason why there’s no reason to cum on someone’s body. How is that anything other than fear mongering? And you’re wondering why I don’t see this as something that’s trying to enforce heteronormativity? And then when I point out that you’re doing similar things by equating these locations with “gooner communities” your reaction is to accuse me of seeking out videos of sexual assault? Get a grip.
No, it cites evolutionary biology to reinforce that cumming on women is an act of degradation. Some people are into those acts of degradation in their sex life which is totally fine as long as it’s consensual.
These men are self-identified gooners assaulting women in their pursuit of sexual gratification and bragging to other gooners.
You’re making the mistake of thinking the article is pushing that every gooner out there are committing these crimes when it’s just some of them.
No reply about randomly accusing me wanting to seek out videos of sexual assault?
You’re vehemently defending gooner communities and complained that the journalists for the Guardian didn’t specifically point you to the gooning communities where they found these assault videos.
Why do you want to know where exactly these gooning communities with the assault videos are?
Jesus fucking Christ, you’re a trip…
No reply about why you want to know exactly where these online communities are?
Go find where I said I wanted to know exactly where they were, because that’s not something I did. I disagreed with you, you didn’t like it, and your reaction to that was to say I must be looking for videos of sexual assault. You’re only trying to paint me as a monster and hurt me, all because I disagreed with something you said. I’m done with this conversation unless you’re willing to apologize. Life is too short to accept this behavior.
