Re: Calypso: Meeting David Sedaris - Queen Mob's Tea House

Posted on 9th Apr 2019

Hi- I think you just wrote out what I've been feeling about this whole 'don't confuse mistakes for microagressions' thing. I've always thought David Sedaris was brilliant, but I saw a short video where he speaks about these two incidents and it left a bad taste in my mouth. Reading this made me upset as well, and I feel i would've gone through the same emotions as you did. What an uncomfortable situation to be placed in- the laughter from the rest of the people almost makes you feel like you are the one overreacting, doesn't it? I'm glad you had the nerve to speak to him about it, I would've just wimped out.

You should not dispense with the requirement to ensure that the baby reads every single word of this amazing piece!

Re: MISFIT DOC: will Sexbotics take us into a future beyond consent? - Queen Mob's Tea House

Posted on 26th Mar 2019

This touches deep in the debate as to what constitutes 'consent' in respect of sections 74, 75 and 76 of the Sexual Offences Act 2003 in our jurisdiction. But then those sections are riddled with contradictions anyway, as asking whether the defendant "reasonably believed" the victim did not consent to the act. Which defendant will answer in the affirmative, knowing fully well that he's going to the gulag for years and will probably be on Sex Offenders' Register for the rest of their life?

And so yes Victoria, this Sexbot concept, I agree with you, appears to have not only opened a new debate, it has also presented us and the Criminal Justice System, a Pandora Box about whether owners of these objects can rape or sexually assault them.

Therefore Vic, your research into sexuality just keeps unravelling untouched contours of the subject, and keeps challenging the established norm.

I love this! When my mother first came to this country she worked as a housekeeper and sometimes would not even get paid after a week’s worth of work. There are so many injustices for women in this field. Excellent take :)
