Roughly speaking, things have leveled out now, so I don't think I have much else to add to the conversation. You feel differently?

It’s about time we locked this thread down.

It just means there are things we aren't aware of. Don't take everything so literally.

therefore

no desire = no suffering

So what, a kid shouldn't even have desires?

If he’s going through puberty, I’d definitely view that as abuse. Even Oscar committed sexual assault against his 14-year-old cousin.

I can still vividly remember screaming my head off and begging him to just let me go. If you’re sitting there thinking that doesn't count as abuse, then you're dead wrong. I’m still dealing with the fallout from that even today. I was just a little kid in preschool when he did this to me... and look, I don't care if he tried to frame it as "just kids playing" or whatever excuse people use—I DID NOT consent to it, and for God's sake, I was just a child. I suppressed the whole thing for years, and it didn't even resurface until I was ten. Maybe to him it felt like some harmless childhood game, but it definitely wasn't for me, because it left scars that haven't healed. Honestly, if someone did that to my own kid now, I wouldn't hesitate to do whatever it takes to protect them.

How old were you, and how old was he? He might have thought he was just playing doctor.

If you aren't putting in the work, it’s just daydreaming.

It all comes down to what you're looking for.

Now it’s just going to look like a bloodbath, though we're still a bit too far off from anything actually being incestuous.

Abuse. Just one thing after another.
