Toronto teens

June 16, 2010 by Jennifer Derwey Leave a Comment

‘Wired for Sex, Lies and Power Trips‘ is the new CBC documentary I watched last night.

Whenever I talk to someone about why abortion is anti-woman, I usually do so arguing that it doesn’t stop or inhibit the violence that leads them to the abortion in the first place, but rather it helps perpetuate a vicious cycle by further demeaning them. So I had this thought in mind while one teenage girl after another reported her own story of assault (ranging from name calling to a ‘dry rape’) on sexually charged school grounds.

You know, you think that okay, then maybe I could grab her ass ’cause the way she dresses, she’s telling me to grab her ass.
Billy, 17

They keep doing it even if you say no or stop ’cause they think you’re joking so it gets kind of difficult to tell them to stop.
Kelsie, 15

They don’t think that the little things they do is sexual harassment. They just think it’s normal.
Pauline, 16
