Do you believe people other than your self should feel the same way as you do and do you believe they would be making an error if they didn't?

Originally posted by @dj2beckerNo, I don't believe it is morally unsound for a victim to be in shock and ashamed. What I think is morally unsound is not talking steps necessary to prevent other children from being raped. Is that what your parents did?
Do you believe it is morally unsound for a victim to be in shock and ashamed and for them not to file charges because they're afraid of retribution from their attacker and also afraid of being called a liar?

By stance you mean the questions I asked you? I did not take any stance on page 2 and 3. I simply asked you some questions.

Do you believe your stance is the only correct stance regarding the protection of girls? Yes or No?

Yes there has been a dodge. Is your answer yes or no to my question? If you’re going to keep on dodging there is no point in continuing this discussion.
