Do you help even if they may disagree with you on something, or is it all convenience/judgment based?
Zeke deserves to be treated like what he is, 21yrs old and making a mistake when it come to the perception of celebrity. That's all.
LOL, so now your excusing Gronk for the motorboat based on her reaction to it, even though it wasn't something she expected?
Well heck, how is Zeke different, the initial vid showed the swat, but subsequent vids show her acting on her own accord to the pleasure of the crowd, and she left with Zeke....she has a right to play the game of seduction, she has the right to play hard to get or coy(do you know her intent or state of mind?)...im just saying, read a romance novel if you don't get my gist. Women aren't as docile and flat as you think, there is a complex dance going on there. Been happening since the times of loin leafs
If Gronk didn't get suspended then neither should Zeke. Both actions by both men are assault and should be punished. I'd be very disappointed by the league if they punish Zeke but not Gronk because both actions were "detrimental to the league". I'm a little disappointed that no Women's groups jumped in against Gronk.
One thing I hope comes out of this is the Women's Group uses this to promote the message of what consent is and what it is not. If someone attends a party, or dresses a certain way, or flirts, or drinks alcohol does not mean that they give everyone or anyone in the room consent to touch them. So lets use Gronk as an example, we'll give Zeke a break. Let's say at his motorboat party a girl comes up behind Gronk and sticks her fingers in his butt. Now let's assume that Gronk doesn't get down like that. So just because he is hosting a party were there is a lot of sexual activity does not mean that he has given permission to anyone at that party to anally penetrate him.
So back to the idea of consent. Attending a party or anything like that does not mean a person is giving implied consent that anything that happens to them is okay because they attended a party or dressed a certain way. If Gronk advertises a sex party on a boat and woman attend, that does not mean that they are giving an overall consent to anybody at that party to touch them sexually. There's no such thing as implied consent when it comes to sexual activity. Especially sexual activity that is in public.
Let's look at at this way. Let's pretend that Zeke and that woman are dating or have a relationship. Let's also pretend that Zeke likes some freaky stuff in his sexual life. So while he's pulling her shirt down and she knows he likes a couple fingers in the butt so she turns around and anally penetrates him in front of the whole parade and cameras catch it. Would that be a sex crime. Yes, without a doubt. Same rules apply to the woman as they do to Zeke. Unless Zeke says hey sweetheart please stick your finger in my butt then it's a crime. Unless she said hey Zeke please pull my shirt down so my breast can be exposed then consent is not assumed. Now if Zeke wants to stick his fingers in his own butt and is doing it repeatedly at the parade then that does mean that he gives his girlfriend permission to do it. Just like if the girl is exposing her own breasts in front of the crowd that does not give Zeke consent to expose her. You can do anything you want with your own body but you have to have permission to touch someone else. Keep sexual activity in the bedroom and out of the public eye is the best way to go.
But going back to your post that I replied to. If Gronk didn't get suspended then Zeke shouldn't, if Zeke gets suspended by the league then that is total hypocrisy by the league. But I would strongly argue, not stronly argue with you but with people in general, that Gronk and Zeke did the same thing and both are wrong. The problem is, Goodell is not opposed to being hypocritical. that's what sucks for us
