that is an obvious. that is a given. that is the point that is being made. that i am so very sure you get... but, pretending that you do not. hence, wasting a moment of my precious time to reiterate that when abusing a woman, or raping a girl, no time given.

the post i replied to compared two very different situations. when making it more comparable, it is consistent punishment. nothing.

right?
