That is irrelevant because even with a NEED does it justify theft? I think not.
Depends on the need. I'm going to be a hell of a lot more understanding if I catch someone stealing for food for themselves or their children or their pets than for smack. Life takes priority over stuff.
The theft might be understandable, but it isn't justified. It's theft.
Anyway this topic title is misleading. There is nothing wrong with sexual fetishes in general, it's simply this specific fetish for the harming of animals that cannot give consent.
Norse, you don't get into semantics arguments with me.
To be understandable is to be justified. Check your thesaurus.
Quotation from an anti crush video article:
Anyone ever hear of this sick crappola? Due to a sexual fetish in China, thousands of Chinese men and women collaborate in order to produce and sell these videos, which are banned in most civilized parts of the world -- but not in China! As far as I understand it, these videos feature Chinese women who stomp on insects, fruit, and tubes of toothpaste... and then work their way up to small animals such as gerbils, reptiles, rabbits, cats and dogs. The fetish is known as a "crush fetish," and it's one of the most depraved things I've ever heard of.
Yah... but here in the USA we have the decency to outlaw these freakshows and ban the sale of such videos. In China, such acts are perfectly acceptable in the eyes of the law. Why would they care about animals, when their government is one of the worst human rights abusers on the planet? Let's not forget Tiannenmen Square folks.
They eat dogs and cats in China. It is believed by the Chinese that causing the animals as much pain as possible before being slaughtered makes the brain secrete chemicals which make the meat tastier. Torture is quite literally an item on the dinner menu for the Chinese.
"justified"? whatever works.
It's weird, people's emotional lives just bore me or freak me out, but if I see someone hurt something innocent, I just want to tear them up and dump the pieces where only the moray eels go.
By the way, a question for anyone: what the hell is so attractive about high-heels anyway?
From what I hear, they ain't too comfortable to begin with, and in my opinion, they're ugly. I don't see why they're considered sexy or alluring for women to wear.
