That’s a really interesting, but depressing, read. The line that really stood out to me was ‘You’re only as safe as your male partner allows you to be.’

‘We want to make ourselves believe that they just snapped’ – the truth is much more shocking. Eloise Hendy talks to criminologists and experts on domestic violence about why women and children are being murdered by their partnersapple.news

I really does make me concerned for what kind of adults some of the current generation will be. Gone are the days when the only porn you saw as a youngster, was discarded magazines in the woods (what was with that? Always in the woods!) and even then it was tame stuff really compared to what's available now. Now it's easily accessible in seconds, pornography of all types. It can't bode well for some teens, can it?
Absolutely I’ve been saying this for a while.Porn definitely has an effect on the way men think they can treat women !Porn has a lot to answer for
It’s scary. Not only do kids have to contend with online porn at an early age, boys expect girls to send nudes or else be called frigid (remember hearing that word at school?), and on social media you have young people rebranding absolutely everything as a kink (“I have a praise kink!”) because the worst thing you could possibly be is boring and vanilla.I really does make me concerned for what kind of adults some of the current generation will be.

The tv show Euphoria covered this really well I thought, when two characters had sex for the first time and he was really rough and she was really scared and he genuinely didn't know what he did wrong. He thought that was a normal way to have sex because that's what porn teaches boys. It's actually disgusting and I feel so bad for young girls these days
Yes I thought of that scene earlier. He was a really nice lad and was horrified when he realised. Porn and films/books like 50 shades give young people a really skewed view of sexual relationships.
There’s nothing to discuss though now. The media keep repeating the same about her, but it isn’t true crime to fantasise over, but an accident/suicide. I think the media frenzy and armchair detectives were just too wild, it needs to die down now.
No, not really the correct thread now, I suppose - although it was discussed on here a bit. She was a missing person who has now been found so unless it later turns out that a crime has been committed there's not much left to discuss about her. I think there's lots to discuss about the media/social media/amateur detectives/conspiracy shitshow situation though.

He tortures a woman for sexual gratification and gets off?!!! Absolutely disgusting.
Thank you, I appreciate that! Knowing what I know about his actions previous to what he did to her I'm not even surprised at what they've said today. I'm not sure how much of the trial I'll follow mainly for my own wellbeing but I'll be surprised if he isn't found guilty at this point. Vile man. I hope her family and friends are doing ok because as much as its awful for me it's 100x worse for them.Conviction in the Norma Girolami murder case. Sentencing tomorrow.

Also, the Patricia Holland murder trial has opened. This one has taken a long time to come to trial. I know one of our members @lasttime had a connection to the case so I hope they're doing ok
Homeless man murdered woman who took him in - trial - BBC News
The charred remains of Patricia Holland, 83, were found after she took in Allan Scott, a court hears.
The way they call it a “sex session” turns my stomach. The phrase implies it was consensual but it’s clear in this case the victim had psychiatric issues and was in an abusive coercive relationship. It’s not a sex session gone wrong, it was rape and torture for his sexual gratification of a vulnerable woman.

That is horrendous. Why oh WHY didn’t they seek help and why has he got off with it, essentially?
