RTH - i have heard about those in US .. don't think there are any in Pk though ...


I always wonder about these lists .. what if that guy was truly repentant but if people in the area are suspicious of him all the time, it will be difficult to build a new life

Weird .. how casually i have spoken about it 😆 I never told anyone 😛 must be the virtual medium 😆😆😆



It kind of is the virtual medium. When I experienced such incidents as a kid, I never spoke up or told anyone. I don't even tell friends and family now. It is just uncomfortable subject matter. But for some reason it seems easier to say it to virtual friends. In retrospect I wish I would have told people back then. Although, my dad might have literally killed someone. He is way too overprotective.

The stats estimate usually one in four women to be sexually assaulted sometime in their life. They count being grabbed or touched as sexual assault as well. It is more than likely that most girls on IF have a similar experience either as a child or a teen.

II. Love Obsession Stalkers

These are individuals who become obsessed with or fixed on a person with whom they have had no intimate or close relationship. The victim may be a friend, a business acquaintance, a person met only once, or even a complete stranger.

May not be most (hopefully most adults are decent) but a sizeable portion, definitely. And not just girls, guys as well, though comparatively lower numbers.

I am in two minds about the registry myself. I think it should be used for serious pedophiles and rapists only.

For example if the age of consent is 18, and 18 year old high school boy has sex with his 17 year old girlfriend – the girls family can convict him of statutory rape and it will stick on his permanent record. It could potentially ruin a person's life. The age of consent and statutory rape laws vary state to state. Many times teenage or young college students do have sex with younger peers, but it is consensual and very unlike rape or abuse. In overzealous attempts to protect teens and minimize teen sex – parents, law enforcement ends up ruining a potentially good young teens life simply because they made a poor judgment call.

In many parts you can go on the sex offender registry for peeing in public, public exposure etc – where you get on there for dumb things like dares, skinny dipping and streaking. The offender could be harmless but they get on there because they were dumb.

Otherwise, most rapists, pedophiles are actually not repentant and often commit the crimes again – so it makes sense to have a registry for only the bad ones.

Well, ive had guys following me and checking me out, and ive had a few stopping me, asking me for my number and stuff. 😆... I don't actually mind, i suppose your stalking was more of a serious nature... but ive had a few... What about guys checking you out though? I am sure, all girls get that, mostly on a daily basis? Today when i was walking home after placement, i had an asian guy that turned around to look at me, and then pinched his friend to turn out and look at me, and then they both looked at me and smiled and walked off... That kinda stuff doesn't bother me. 😆...

Tu yahan, itni raat ko?😆

Well, turning of heads don't really qualify as stalking. They're called "{admiring glances". Although I'd right freak out if some random guy asked me my number. I've had people checking me out, like every Jane and Mary, yep😆.

Btw, I think I've been stalked before too; though it wasn't serious. Some random guy called me up and asked to be "friends", said he'd got my number from a common buddy and followed me to University to see what I looked like and where I lived. I shut him off, and I think there were two or three more "phone-wannabe-buddies" like that. Not dangerous, but irritating and unnerving nevertheless.

A sizeable portion is more accurate. I think most adults are decent, but the problem tends to be that the bad ones have a far reaching effect until caught. And unfortunately, many people keep mum out of fear and shame.

Actually, male victims of sexual abuse are the most underreported. Until the past few decades many people didn't give much weight that boys also need to be protected from predators.
