Yep. I will let him explain.
Well, it does show that he plans to defend himself, though at first Zero did too...
On the off chance that he's actually innocent, what is his response supposed to be? Just silence?
He can still defend himself as he sees fit which is what he seems to be doing. I merely wrote that post because anyone bringing up allegations need to be heard and listened to. We will all draw our own conclusions based on what we read and see, but it's a lot more difficult for a faceless victim to come forward and speak when they do not wish to have anymore light shone on their lives.
Yup, agreed. Sorry I thought you were saying his response was gross or something, but I think you're saying what he is accused of is gross.
it doesn't I'm just getting ahead of the dumb Twitter opinions nairo fans are about to come up with on twitter
When so many of the adults around him are...well, that, it's not hard to imagine negative behaviors being encouraged.
Zack being a scumbag and harasser doesn't negate Ally and Nairo being pedophiles, which is much worse in comparison.
I don't know how it would absolve Nairo or anyone would think that. In Zacks own evidence he showed him talking about him making agressive advances. If anything this would just further reinforce that.
I do think victims of sexual abuse become hypersexual, at least in my own personal experience. It is pretty common for such people to cross lines. There's no excusing it, but I've been there. There's unhealthy void filling and behavior that leads to hurting others. Those of us that realize it and can put ourselves in check can seek help. But the damage sexual abuse from a young age does to your mental state is quite significant... it's not talked about enough IMO. If I had known the things I know now a long time ago... I could have gotten help much earlier. Now I have to wait forever to get help because US healthcare system is "incredible".
That's not what's going on in this case, at least not when it comes to the players that have been named so far. Zack already had a reputation in the community for this type of behavior (among other things) way back then, which is why another older player he tried to get with at the time (Dabuz) nipped that shit in the bud right away. This is three people (Zack, Nairo, Ally) with dubious motives/character getting involved with each other, with one of them also happening to be a minor.
Yeah, definitely. It does depend on the person. When your introduction to sex is extremely abnormal, you can grow up with an abnormal thought process tied to sex though. That's why getting mental help is important. It sucks I realized this so late.
I honestly didn't know who any of these people were prior to this, so I probably shouldn't talk about it. You are right that many abused become abusers themselves. But I stand by "brave voice" being a weird choice for a name. Sounds like something a news anchor would say about someone, not how anyone would describe themselves.
