This light sentence does not surprise me. Europeans have a very different attitude toward sex. To them, (especially the men) it's no big deal. If they thought European women would let them get away with it -- they'd have let him go altogether. I don't know why European women put up with as much piggy behavior as they do -- but the men call it "progress".
Just look a the English legal system turning a blind eye to all the grooming gangs while thousands of little British girls are repeatedly raped. They claim its because they dont want to seem racist. But its also because European men attach as much importance to sex as they do to a trip to the water closet.
Got me. I think European women are brainwashed. The men have their wives and feel entitled to their mistresses. But I suppose it doesn't matter because everybody cheats on everybody else anyway. They've got their topless beaches and whatnot. And they just can't wait to bring their attitudes over here. So when stuff like this happens they shrug their shoulders and say, "they'll (meaning the victims) get over it."
A very long time ago, I met a European young man in college. We had a whirlwind romance that ended abruptly when my American values regarding the necessity of marriage did not mesh with his European attitudes toward sex.
At the time, he walked away from the relationship with the remark that he would return when he felt he'd experienced enough of what the world has to offer. Loosely translated, he meant sampling other women -- but not to worry -- I was given permisson to do as I pleased until his return.
I was properly horrified any young American girl who has grown up reading romance novels would be. This was unlike any plot of any book I'd ever read. My broken heart took years to heal. I finally met a young American man whose values were identical to mine, and we planned our wedding.
As a soon to be bride, I had deposits down on everything and my wedding gown (which I was sewing myself) already in progress --when the phone rang eight months prior to my wedding day.
I was in complete shock to discover the European young man on the other end back, as per what he considered our "agreement". He had sampled enough of what the world had to offer to the tune of 31 (rather like Bressler's ice cream flavors I thought, when he told me this) and now he felt ready to settle down and procreate. I was the lucky lady chosen for the job.
I told him I was getting married to someone else. I never told him that the thought of 31 previous partners revolted me and that if he were literally the last man on earth -- I would choose to die a virgin rather than be with him. And also, that his offer was insulting years ago and even more insulting when I realized he thought i had agreed to it.
So I know more about European men than I care to know, both from him, and others I've come across in my life. They are very immoral when it comes to sex. They are so different that any American girl who takes up with one will probably end up with a broken heart.
As I've often advised young girls -- the charming accents are not worth the trouble of having a man that can't be loyal to you. American men are far more likely to have fidelity in their heart.
It has nothing to do with Marxism. It has to do with a piggish attitude and a genuine belief that wives are for breeding and the rest of the women in the world are there for their personal fun and games.
Furthermore -- please don't tell me (of my experience) "it's just one person" -- I've lived long enough to help glue together the pieces of many girls who fell for the accents. Some don't get out of the relationship until it's too late and suffer though tremendous infidelity for the sake of their children.
I am older than you. The young European man I spoke of passed away a few months ago of disease related to age -- I shudder to imagine what the grand total of his collected "experience" was by the time he shuffled off this mortal coil.
Things like that change women in unpleasant ways. I remember years of being suspicious of all men until I realized it as the European students and a few of those who would have been considered liberal back then who had to be avoided.
I changed my habits and only dated conservative American men. But even then -- everything becomes confusing when you've had a relationship with someone who placed no value on the purity you were preserving for your future husband. I wondered if love was just a lie and relationships for men were only about sex after all. It wasn't supposed to be that way -- my books had promised me my very own "prince" and happily ever after. I was depressed and disappointed for a very long time.
I never (thank God) became angry and vindictive because of the experience -- just very suspicious of men's motives in relationships. Quite truthfully, my poor husband went through far more than he should have to gain my trust. But in all our years together, I have never doubted his love and loyalty. I got my "prince" after all -- he was just in another castle.
I sometimes wonder if these rabid feminists of today are just a different version of the depressed and disappointed girl I was all those years ago. Is their haterd of and vindictive attitude toward men a result of broken dreams and promises that were the result of some man in search of "experiences"?
I don't know. I'm just glad I'm not young in these times.
That article is sort of misleading. The cops interview the victim first but she's usually seen by medical personnel who supply her with the needed psychological support.
With this guy's plan the rapist would never be pursued or brought to justice.
I am still a little hesitant to ascribe it to Marxism. Unless, it could be said that these people don't realize the atitude is coming from Maxism. In my day it was Hugh Hefner's influence and also James Bond movies. I can honestly say I never heard any guy talk about women in regard to Marx. But Hefner and James Bond? You betcha.
You can't raise a daughter to be totally dependent on men. What happens if she marries, has three children, and her husband dies without life insurance? Or if she marries a man who beats her, or is a womanizer-- should she remain stuck in the marriage because she can't afford to support herself?
I am against the welfare state. I am also against women feeling pressured to marry as soon as they can, to the best provider they can get, purely for economic reasons. The best way to stop that craziness is to make sure women are well educated and able to care for themselves, if need be.
That doesn't necessarily lead to rabid feminism and leftism. A woman can be 100% a girly girl and still have a STEM career or a head for business.
I was extremely lucky to have hit the marital jackpot. I really only had my looks and a second rate education to fall back on.
I didn't come from wealth or social background and learned quickly exactly what I was worth on the marriage market.
I often wonder what would have happened to me had I not met my husband because women in my day were raised to be homemakers.
I don't think you can adequately appreciate the anxiety a woman feels when every date is a life and death situation because her future survival depends on getting a husband. That is no way to live.
That was the main reason I made sure my own daughter received the education my parents felt a woman didn't "need". No matter what happens, she will always be able to find a job, and support herself. And the horrible anxiety of worrying about the future isn't a problem for her, as it was for me.
Someday when you have a daughter of your own -- you'll want her to have a say in her own future. You might not think so now -- but you will when the time comes.

I have to disagree here.

Marry AMERICAN.

I would agree with some of that -- but not all.
