  • It’s important to verbally bring it back to them after sharing your similar experience. Something like, “bla bla bla so yea losing my father was devastating so I can imagine the pain your going through right now.” Then pause and let them talk again.

    I think half the problem is that neurotypicals don’t connect dots the way neurospicy folks do. It goes without saying to neurodivergent folk that the reason/purpose/meaning behind the personal story is to create a foundation for empathy and connection.

    The women with Louis CK said it was not consensual. Monica said she didn’t understand how inappropriate it was, but it was consensual. That is the difference here.

    And what did we as a society do? We lambasted him for being weird and not understanding that dynamic, and his career has yet to really recover.

    To the benefit of absolutely fucking nobody; especially Monica.

    Like not only did you guys embarrass yourself on the national stage, give fuel to the right wing media apparatus, subject Monica to a life of infamy, undermine the progress of your own administration; you guys accomplished fuck all for real victims of sexual violence … or else why would you be bringing up Louis CK?

    How do you not realize that your exact attitude is what the GOP exploited at the expense of Monica?

    If y’all grew the fuck up she’d have zipped his pants and gone on to have a normal career.

    People have sex. It’s a thing we do. If everyone involved is a consenting adult than you don’t get a say in it.

    She was a grown ass woman dude. This whole gen-z infantilization of 20 something year olds is ridiculous.

    Like do you seriously not understand that women also find men attractive? /s

    If she came out and said it was non consensual than colour me incorrect. Otherwise you’re just being a prude like the rest of society that did the actual harm in this situation.
