YouTube - ‪Young Girls Attack/Strip 11-Year-Old Boy‬‏

They're not even in trouble for it. That poor kid is probably scarred for life. If that were 3 14 year old boys doing that to a 11 year old girl, well they wouldn't be so lucky

Anyway, rant over

That pretty much describes every weekend for me, except add ten years to the girls' ages.

I agree with the posters rant in the description. Society is completely wasted.

You're an 11 year old boy who gets your pants pulled off by two 24 year old women every weekend? Awesome

It was against his will, they attacked him and then they put it on Youtube.

I'm at a loss for words.

If it was against his will, and it wasn't playful, then they need to be punished some way.


With that being said, we did stupid stuff like this all the time when I was little. The worst any of us got out of it was having to say sorry or retaliatory fire.

The addition of the the internet made this all the worse. Those kids in 8th grade should be more mature.

The fact they posted it on YouTube took it even further.

My thoughts exactly. You can joke about it, e.g. this was your fantasy, etc. but if you think of it in a practical manner, it must be a horrible feeling for the little boy. These girls should have some strict action taken against them.

I'm unsurprised they got off scot-free, when women are convicted, they receive a sentence that is on average %60 lower than when a man is convicted of a similar crime.

Western society has come to look upon the masculine as somehow evil or less than the feminine. That is why we have statements such as "there's too much Testosterone in here" or "stop acting so macho" (when in fact one is not acting in a negative manner; rather simply displaying a masculine response) are not considered sexist....I could go on. We have embraced a subtle viewpoint of things masculine being evil, stupid, less effectual, brutish, & slovenly.
Yes; it's a generalization but examine the marketing of concepts and items. They are geared toward that manner of thinking. Look at popular entertainment, examine the element of the "Metrosexual" as a fashion element. These are typically anti-masculine agendas that are accepted as a norm.

There was a time when sexism put women in a second rate position in society & it still exists in some cultures but in Western society the opposite exists. Men are not expected to be able to comprehend sensitivity or compassion. And when such a thing is demonstrated publicly it becomes front page news rather than a normal human response.
The "Fireman saving the kitten" was old news yet today it's considered unique for a man to have compassion or the understanding of vulnerability. Men somehow are considered incapable of understanding emotion or being vulnerable.

Seems kind of hypocritical for the law. It says (in effect) "you must not discriminate against others due to gender etc." (rightly so) yet the law is completely discriminating against males in this situation.
As has been said if it were a group of boys doing this they would be severely punished, but a group of girls Noooo, that is completely fine for a group of girls to sexually assault a young boy, who will most likely be mentally scarred now.

When a man and a woman commit the same crime together, the man always gets a harsher sentence, and/or they always make the "deal" with the woman to testify for a reduced sentence. It's never the other way around.

And of course, women's groups are always silent on this form of discrimination.

I couldn't even finish the video. Is there a contact address or number for the boy's parents? I honestly feel like writing them and asking them to seriously consider pressing charges. Their boy deserves much better than that, and these girls are old enough to know exactly what they were doing. They need to do some time.

I couldn't believe the mother's reaction. She clearly does not give a **** about it.

Ripping the clothes off a 11 year old child and posting it on youtube. Sounds like Sexual assault and possibly child pornography.

The story only is disturbing enough, but to videotape it and post it on youtube shows absolutely no remorse whatsoever.
