2024-10-10 00:43:42 +0000 UTCgreat consent and a very responsible public safety announcement about kink safety, im glad you guys included that!

2024-10-09 19:34:45 +0000 UTCOh yeah…. I forgot about her asking for help through a post she immediately deleted. I tend to remember that guy they thought did it. TBH, I think he was too close for comfort and potentially a very bad guy. Here’s the info on Armin Meiwes. It’s gory, but if you’re here, you probably already know about it, or at least, you can probably handle it. 😉 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Armin_Meiwes

2024-10-08 15:57:43 +0000 UTCThe one l was thinking of was a girl who posted a request on craigslist. A man replied but he was serious. He drove her to the desert and shot her. She changed her mind tho. Ill try and find it

2024-10-08 15:55:03 +0000 UTCYes. I agree. It’s murder; no doubt. Would it be closer to first, second, or perhaps a new category: Voluntary Murder? They jailed the German (?) that ate the man who offered himself up through a classified ad.

2024-10-08 15:41:14 +0000 UTCYou made the right decision! These creators offer continuous, quality content, at a low rate (just enough to maintain development). I assume neither sleeps...

2024-10-08 15:28:54 +0000 UTCReminds me of the guy who jumped of the Golden Gate Bridge and survived and said “I realized while falling that the only problem in my life that couldn’t be fixed was the fact I had jumped”. this totally removed any opportunity to treat the mental illness that would lead someone to this fate. So sad she didn’t try to get support from anyone that would have helped her. She needed help and did not deserve to have her life ended this way.

2024-10-08 04:08:23 +0000 UTCInteresting - was just thinking of the similarities between the two cases. Obviously, there are differences right off the bat due to legal processes in two different countries. Although, the consent issue was arguably easier to present in the Meiwes case with the existence of so much video indicating the willingness of both parties at multiples stages of their interaction. Overall, quite a multifaceted and complicated case - thanks to dreading for covering.

2024-10-07 00:20:53 +0000 UTCtbh it's irrelevant whether you can consent to murder or not. It's just that you don't want someone who is capable of premeditated murder (for no reason other than their sexual pleasure) to be part of your society. See R v Brown in UK case law. and there's the issue of verifying consent too - as we know, rape is rape even if a person changes their mind halfway through the act. same would apply here, except if someone rescinds their consent to be killed, we will never know that because obviously the consenting person is dead and can't clarify their position.

2024-10-06 14:51:39 +0000 UTCThe only way you can consent to murder is by committing suicide (which technically is a self-murder in the eyes of common law). So this poor lady wasn't of sound mind and whoever killed her ...

2024-10-06 12:28:11 +0000 UTCWas she in her right mind? I am not sure she was. This is very complicated. I think he should be jailed for ending someone’s life whether they wanted it or not. It’s a very simplistic view l know but take the emotion out of it he murdered her. The other point i have is, i watched a doco on underage children watching porn and how it affects their mind. It was disturbing to say the least. Some hardcore pedos watched porn when they were 10. I just thought it might be what made her who she was. 🤷🏻♀️ Thankyou for another great story. There was another lady did the same thing and was eventually murdered in the desert.
