So let me get this straight...
She called him for "sex lessons"?
Maybe. We don’t know everything yet. But let’s say she did. A 15 year old girl training to be an athlete with maybe a crush on her coach. I’d doesn’t mean he’s obliged to have sex with her.
The fucking law, for cying out loud, recognizes that 15-year olds don’t make the best decisions and it’s up to the adults to refuse.
Not to mention, this type of thing is so prevalent, that teachers, coaches and trainers usually get a bit of training in power dynamics, how their position as a ‘mentor’ makes it especially easy for them to abuse use their influence over their students.
It would be pretty unusual if as a trainer he didn’t know these things.
And her certainly knew that underage sex is a crime.
And now, 12 years later, now that victim politics are trending, she decides she needs to ruin the life of a skateboarding legend?
You one-sided cartoon character. What is it that makes you think he is the victim here? And she hasn’t had to deal with any shit?
I am really interested, why are you willing to believe she wants to ruin his life, for what gain? Revenge? In your brain, is that why #METOO is happening?
Does your brain filter out any other possibilities?
That maybe he sees him potentially grooming other underage girls?
That she somehow gains something from all of this negative attention? People like you calling her a thot and immediately siding with the man, ignoring any shit and shame she had to deal with?
Can you not empathize with why a young girl who makes a mistake in having a crush on her teacher, and then when the teacher ILLEGALLY takes advantage of her, she stays silent out of fear and shame?
But no, it must be the girl’s fault. Poor Neal had no choice but to respond to her advances and give her sex lessons, making her swallow him till she choked.
She was in the position of power, not Neal, right?
