Mutznutz, so why didn't she say (childs names)s mum?

auntyfash · 10/01/2011 00:30

No I am not exaggerating at all sadly dobiegirl.

Several different blokes...I think I had "abuse me" tattooed on my forehead when I was younger.

seeker - I have a blonde white friend who was going out with a black guy with a body like a god Envy

One day they were at my house and we were chatting away about all sorts and I used the expression 'that's the pot calling the kettle black'.

Blonde friend said she couldn't believe I'd make a racist remark like that - especially in front of her bf.

bf rolled his eyes and took my side - saying it's just an expression and nothing to do with the colour af anyone's skin.

Can I tell you where to send the £5 now?! Grin

dobiegirl · 10/01/2011 00:30

Ok re-read, was done by several, do you think that maybe you are giving out the wrong signals at times because that is an unbelievable high amount of times to have become the victim of white demons!!!

auntyfash · 10/01/2011 00:33

Giving out the wrong signals? How fucking dare you?!!! Angry

I tell you what, I'm really angry at your comment. I was going to list one by one each occasion it happened to me, but I do not need to justify myself to you.

I was just trying to get across the point that white men abuse white women too, and young children.

mutznutz · 10/01/2011 00:34

usedtobeyoung perhaps she didn't want to? Perhaps she thought that would make the children embarrassed, perhaps she couldn't recall their names at that given time...perhaps, perhaps, perhaps.....

Either way in my opinion it doesn't make her racist...but clearly in someone else's opinion it does - which is what the OP's post is ally about Smile

dobiegirl · 10/01/2011 00:36

Oh you are white, thought you meant you're asian that had been abused by white men just like the asian men abuse the little white girls. My apologies there, thought you were taking the mick, Sorry.

usedtobeyoung · 10/01/2011 00:36

dobiegirl, thats disgusting, what sort of person blames the victim for the abuse they survived. and all because they don't agree with you, nice!

dobiegirl · 10/01/2011 00:37

mind your own!!

auntyfash · 10/01/2011 00:37

would it have mattered if I had been Asian?

And I think it would be pretty sick of anyone to joke about having been raped, don't you?

auntyfash · 10/01/2011 00:38

thank you usedto.

dobiegirl · 10/01/2011 00:39

Yes it would have mattered, that was my point -tit for tat - (or so I thought)

Yes you're right but people do say they have been raped and lie you know!!

usedtobeyoung · 10/01/2011 00:44

Anytime aunty, I'm guessing that some on this thread would find the response to this OP much more satisfactory on the Daily Mails website.

auntyfash · 10/01/2011 00:45

Tit-for-tat. I was just trying ti explain...actually I give up explaining.

Yes, people do lie about rape and I think that is terrible. But please do not accuse me of lying about it.

I remember getting all het up about thios whole Muslim men rape white women thing when the BNP brought out their Racism cuts both ways leaflet. It upset me then and it upsets me now, I feel more frightened of White men (especially far right knuckle draggers) than I do of other men, but I also have enough perspective and rationale to know that all white men aren't rapists.

auntyfash · 10/01/2011 00:46

lol usedtobe :D

dobiegirl · 10/01/2011 00:49

Ok but I really haven't accused you of lying about anything - I did ask you if you were exagerrating - only because this is the internet and people, well, they tell tall stories sometimes!!

I'm sorry you've been abused and you shouldn't feel frightened of anyone!!

auntyfash · 10/01/2011 00:50

You thought I was Asian and making it up for a bit of tit-for-tat! Bog off!

dobiegirl · 10/01/2011 00:51

Back to you baby cakes xx

tethersend · 10/01/2011 00:55

"do you think that maybe you are giving out the wrong signals at times because that is an unbelievable high amount of times to have become the victim of white demons!!!"

Did you really just accuse a child (now an adult) of giving out the wrong signals and inviting abuse? Really?

auntyfash · 10/01/2011 00:58

That is what I found most disgusting, that she accused a child (albeit a younger me) of giving out the wrong signals.

Yes, I probably wore my nappy too low round my hips or something.

dobiegirl · 10/01/2011 01:03

Well some people are just naturally victims - of course I can't give my whole spiel on this right now as it's too late but I didn't think for one minute she had been abused - I thought she was making it up - people do, so you can say what you must.

tethersend · 10/01/2011 01:03

If it's any consolation auntyfash, she's shot whatever point she was making out of the sky with that clanger.

dobiegirl · 10/01/2011 01:04

Work tomorrow girls, you might wanna try it sometime!! Night night!!

tethersend · 10/01/2011 01:05

"Well some people are just naturally victims..."

...Of child sexual abuse? Eh?

Oh, please do give us your whole spiel. Please. We'll make time.

Tortington · 10/01/2011 01:05

dobiegirl, you are looking spectacularly bad at this moment.
