Worst headline ever from Jezebel: “Group Sex Is The Latest Disturbing Teen Trend”
Second sentence of the article reads: “Researchers found significant number of teen girls are having group sex, and it’s often non-consensual.”
There’s more: “The majority of the girls, “reported being pressured, threatened, coerced, or forced to participate in MPS at least once.” One third of the girls said they’d used alcohol or drugs during their last group sex experience, and half of those girls said they were forced to use the substances by their partner.”
The average age was 15.6.
At the very end of the article, the author says that “multi-person sex” isn’t really the right term since most of it was non-consensual. Neither is “group sex” then.
Please, let’s call rape, rape and not something else.
so sad when young women need the validation of having a boyfriend so much he can talk her into being raped by a bunch of other men/boys OK, so you say, its not rape if he talked her into it, I ask, when she is forced against her will to drink, or given date rape drugs, even if she does not try to fight them off because she is drunk or drugged, I still call it rape. Were she on control she would have yelled bloody murder. The who;e idea that sex is so casual now, that young women and men see it as recreation, not romance and love, Like I said, its sad
I think that you mean “the average age”, not the “average wage”.
Dangers of blogging when outraged. Deep breath first. Now fixed. Thanks.
That’s ok.
Yes, it’s rape.
Yeah… I agree with you. Where I come from, when a person is forced, drugged, or threatened, it’s rape, not sex and it doesn’t matter if it’s one on one or twenty thousand on however many. Rape is rape is rape and calling it something else distracts from the real problem.
Here’s a critical review of the original article that prompted for the wild claim about group sex being a trend. It’s well worth a read: http://www.drpetra.co.uk/blog/teenagers-and-group-sex-a-cause-for-concern/
If the average age of girls was only 15.6 years, there must have been some cases of statutory rape even.
