'When I use a word, it means just what I choose it to mean'. So said Humpty Dumpty in Through the Looking Glass. There seems to have been a frustratingly large amount of what might loosely be called 'journalism' along those lines in the past 24 hours, particularly around the definition of the words 'child' and 'victim'. Even the age of consent appears not to mean what one might have believed. But then, as a member of the most despised underclass, my opinion is automatically worthless, of course.

Yep, a pretty much shellacking of those of us whom love younger.
ReplyDeleteI've seen it there, and here. Ugh.
The boy will be over all day Sunday and into Monday morning. YAY!

Hello Jay
DeleteIt's been a trend for more than a few years, of course, but some cases are more egregious than others. At least the 'p-word' hasn't been bandied about, not that I've seen, anyway. That would've been the ultimate perversion of language, albeit that it wouldn't have been at all surprising.
Anyway, on a more positive note, I hope your weekend goes really well.
Love & best wishes
