RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017

The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.

If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.

To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.

I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.

I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.

I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.

I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.

Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.

Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.

The forums are mostly read-only and are in a maintenance/testing phase, before being permanently archived. Please use this time to get the contact details of people you'd like to keep in touch with. My contact details are here.

Please do not make a mirror copy of the forums in their current state - things will still change, and some people have requested to be able to edit or delete some of their personal info.

Well if an animal does have a say in something, we should listen to the inevitable vocal sounds it will make. How are you to simply assume something based off of nothing? Shall I also assume people can transform into wolves despite that if that were so, shouldn't someone have done it already?

Dear Tumblrites: Despite your wrongly self-diagnosed PTSD, no line of scientific evidence suggests people can be triggered over the internet. Triggering works through the senses (i.e. smell, taste, touch, vision, hearing.) but it goes through real time; if you're not experiencing it in real life as it's ACTUALLY HAPPENING in your ACTUAL life, you CANNOT be triggered. The only exception to this is if you have a seizure, but then again, that's triggered by epilepsy (i.e. rapidly-changing flashing lights) NOT PTSD. Remembering a bad incident is NOT the same thing as having a flashback. When you remember, you think; when you flashback, you feel.

You are assuming that animals only communicate vocally.

LOLNO. If an animal wants you off, it WILL do something. It may not be able to consent verbally positively, but it can consent negatively verbally.

Animals can show emotions obviously, its NOT hard to look at it. If a cat yelps loudly when you step on its tail, are you just going to assume a person is ignorant enough to claim that the cat is only doing that because maybe thats the sound it makes when it wants to go outside? Obviously, no. Its doing it because it is in pain.

How and why would an animal do that? And isn't it just as safe to assume that since an animal has the power to express disapproval, and yet it isn't going to, that it doesn't feel the need because it is in pleasure?

It matter not if animals understand people; only that people understand animals. My point still stands: if the animal doesn't want sex, they would try and do something. If a dog wants food, it begs. If a dog wants outside, it scratches at the back door. If a dog is hot, it pants and sticks its tongue out. And if a dog doesn't want sex, it will fight back, run away, yelp etc.

I think you mean to assume animals have some imaginary "extra emotions" that is somehow out of our area of grasping the concept. But nevertheless, the burden of proof doesn't rely on those who deny a claim, rather, the burden of proof relies on those who ASSERT a claim (you). So unless you can give me some intricate animal neuro-scientific theory that has a shread of proof, you really have nothing to support these "imaginary emotions" (just like god!)

RE: What are some of your most controversial opinions?

That really is not a premise for believing animals have emotions that people cannot understand. All that article was about is whether animals have emotions or not, not the REAL question of whether animals have emotions people cannot understand.

What you are doing is simply assuming that an animal doesn't want to have sex but it cannot communicate this in a way that people can understand, or simply, it doesn't want to communicate at all. We can't simply assume this. We know the signs for positivity and negativity in animals and we have neurological projections that SHOW certain brain patterns responding positively and negatively in laboratory tests based upon certain interaction between humans and other animals. If they had different emotions, parts of their brain expressing said emotion would be highlighted but its not. So are suggesting there is some sort of "ghost" emotion that doesn't show up on them? That's ridiculous.

Also, what about the pleasure that a dog and human share? Moreover, if a dog wants to have sex with a person by freely letting it, then denying a human to have sexual relations with a dog is not only infringing upon the freedom of the human, but of the dog as well.

Dear Tumblrites: Despite your wrongly self-diagnosed PTSD, no line of scientific evidence suggests people can be triggered over the internet. Triggering works through the senses (i.e. smell, taste, touch, vision, hearing.) but it goes through real time; if you're not experiencing it in real life as it's ACTUALLY HAPPENING in your ACTUAL life, you CANNOT be triggered. The only exception to this is if you have a seizure, but then again, that's triggered by epilepsy (i.e. rapidly-changing flashing lights) NOT PTSD. Remembering a bad incident is NOT the same thing as having a flashback. When you remember, you think; when you flashback, you feel.

What you ar5e doing is simply assuming that an animal doesn't want to have sex but it cannot communicate this in a way that people can understand, or simply, it doesn't want to communicate at all. We can't simply assume this. We know the signs for positivity and negativity in animals and we have neurological projections that SHOW certain brain patterns responding positively and negatively in laboratory tests based upon certain interaction between humans and other animals. If they had different emotions, parts of their brain expressing said emotion would be highlighted but its not. So are suggesting there is some sort of "ghost" emotion that doesn't show up on them?

Ok, we are misunderstanding each other.

Animals have the same emotions humans do. Humans cannot understand how these animals express these quite simple emotions because we do not understand the complex cues.

Someone looking to have sex with an animal is not going to pull up a brain scan to make sure that they are enjoying it. They are going to be influenced by their own bias.

Animals do not solicit humans for sex (except for dolphins, for whom sex is a common social activity and integral to the preservation of the pod) "Leg humping" is not an expression of sexual desire but one of dominance; dogs will often mount each other to express dominance.

There is no "human bias"; if an emotion is triggered, it will highlight a certain portion of the brain which in turn gives off electrical brain impulses. That is a clear cut fact. And it is the same for humans.

Are you seriously suggesting a bunch of highly-trained professional canine neuroscientists who have done millions of brains scans for dogs are all somehow simultaneously lying? What would be the motivation for that? Should we assume that if we withold food from a dog that the dog will be unable to communicate if it needs food? Of course not, we can tell.

No, I am not stating that a neuroscientist is misinforming us, but that a zoophile could misinterpret his dog's submission as sexual pleasure.

Well if a dog pants, gets higher blood pressure, and ejaculates. That clearly shows that it is deriving pleasure. Those signs are not hard to miss.

Physical pleasure =/= consent

Many (human) rape victims have expressed guilt at having a pleasurable physical experience during rape while having a negative psychological one.

That's different, they didn't have a choice.


Its still consented, but I don't mean tie down a dog. Just arouse it and if it goes along with it than it is OK. Lack of negative emotions gives the same consent as acknowledged positive emotions. Even silence is consent.

Its only rape if its rejected. But if they dont try to least defend themselves then they're fair game. If a person is so goddamn lazy to even open their mouths to say "I don't want to have sex with you" then if they get "raped" its their own goddamn fault.

According to your post, animals being raped in the wild still don't enjoy it, so there's no point for someone who claims to love animals to rape them.

I used child rape as an example because children, like animals cannot consent.

RE: What are some of your most controversial opinions?

children have the mental capacity to verbally consent. And its NOT rape. Hell, even animals don't verbally consent. A male dog walks up behind a female and starts fucking her, no verbal consent at all, she goes along with it and they both get pleasure. Why should this be any different if a HUMAN does it?

My point was that people should be allowed to fuck animals. Humans should exercise human responsibility. Banning sex because animals can't "speak consent" is stupid. That was my point. Harming animals should still be illegal. You thinking all sex is harmful is from your own anti-sex attitudes. Sexual activity doesn't have inherent harm. You can thank religion for that view.

Quote:I used child rape as an example because children, like animals cannot consent.

Do not bring child sexuality into any topic ever. It is a trump card people pull because who in their right mind would argue against the status quo without being behind anonymous proxy? Not to mention children DO NOT EQUAL animals. Stop insulting children. Sorry animal lovers.

Its still consented, but I don't mean tie down a dog. Just arouse it and if it goes along with it than it is OK. Lack of negative emotions gives the same consent as acknowledged positive emotions. Even silence is consent.

um oh gosh I REALLY think you should reread this.
Its only rape if its rejected. But if they dont try to least defend themselves then they're fair game. If a person is so goddamn lazy to even open their mouths to say "I don't want to have sex with you" then if they get "raped" its their own goddamn fault.

lol. Well, then that depends on if YOU consent to it. The dog obviously already has.

Ugh I seriously can't deal with this anymore!!!!!

THIS is the reason that rape culture still exist, because people don't want to accept that fact that MAYB-E they might be rapists, and MAYB-E their right to get their jollies isn't more important than other creature's rights!!!!

i'm just going to leave this here

this is really upsetting!!!!!!!!!!!

This whole argument is stupid. People kill animals everyday for food. Considering this, raping animals seems pretty minor.
