Judge Mabel Jansen resigns

Show me one person in this thread that said that. I've got friends from all races, and maybe I just don't mix with the wrong crowd, but that has maybe clouded my judgement a bit in term of racists. I was actually starting to think a bit SA is getting over that stage, but reading this forum, brings me right back down to earth.

I actually don't believe that, I was hoping it would highlight the dangerousness and how racist generalizing is.

A very poor attempt to try and get a point across.

If you zoom in a tad, it's easy to read. And it's pretty ****ing unpalatable. Why anyone would actually write these sorts of thoughts down in our current political climate, is quite beyond my ken.

OMW! That is such a gross generalisation to make. I'm surprised the anti-feminist brigade here haven't taken umbrage.

No, no. She only said black men rape. The brigade would only participate if she had said all men rape.
 
I'm not particularly interested in racism and related issues, nor am I motivated by political correctness in any meaningful way. That being said, I cannot fathom how anyone could view those texts as anything but a series of racist generalisations.

You know who has a rape culture? Humans. And for any particular group in which rape and similar mistreatment is more prevalent, we'd do far better to look at the social conditions in which that population finds itself, rather than their skin colour.

You are the one that is "that kind". You are so set in your ways and opinions, and every little thing any white person might say about anything regarding blacks is automatically racist.

You and people like you are the problem, and you don't even realise it, probably never will.

You don't know what you don't know comes to mind when dealing with people like Cr419.

So will the rapists in this thread please identify themselves?

It actually feels like farting against thunder, there is just to many of you. It comes back to my old question in another thread, is it something about this forum that draws your kind here, or are you just representative of white South African's true opinion of blacks. if it's the latter that's actually a bit sad.



I was actually also starting to think you might be trolling. Log in with a computer then you will be able to see that picture I posted, otherwise, if you are on a phone try to save it, then view and zoom.

I grew up in a village outside Polokwane in Limpopo. At school and in the community we would always hear older boys talking about lepanta. As a young boy, I knew lepanta to be a Sotho word for “belt”. I soon learnt that it was coined by boys in the street corners to mean “when two or more boys have sex with one girl at the same time”.

These older boys would say with pride: “Ka weekend re bethile ngwana o mongwe lepanta.” (Over the weekend we took turns having sex with a certain girl.)

Whether the girl agreed or not we didn’t know. But it was the way these boys would proudly say it that, as a young boy, made me and other younger boys aspire to engage in lepanta.

It sounded like a cool thing to do. So cool that some of the older boys would ask each other after every weekend if they scored a lepanta session or if they just had “boring sessions” with their steady girlfriends. And it created such pressure on some of these boys that when they were asked, they would lie just to fit in.

At the time, I thought it was a cool thing to do. It was fashionable, and I wanted to fit in. I started wondering about how to engage in lepanta. Do I get a girl and then tell her that my friends and I would like to have lepanta with her? Do I recruit my classmates to go look for a beautiful girl (or any other girl even if she is not attractive), and ask to have lepanta with her? Or do I actually force a girl on her way from school, lock her in my mother’s house and call my friends…?

As it happened, I never asked anyone how it was done. I chose not to ask, because I didn’t want to be seen as stupid. And no, I have never engaged in lepanta. I was toying with the idea because the peer pressure was mounting to give it a go. But before I could, I was already starting to mature and differentiate between right and wrong.

I realised as I was growing up that most of these mapanta happened after drinking sessions in the tavern. A boy would talk to a girl, propose to go home with her that evening, and buy her lots of beer until she was drunk. Then he would take her home and call his friends from the tavern to take turns sleeping with her. That’s how some of my school mates told me it was done. The girl may or may not know that she actually slept with the whole village’s soccer team. And in those days, girls, even if they knew, didn’t have much say.

So either there really is a cultural trend or there isn't. You'd think a judge would be in a good position to be exposed to the darker side of such trends since it would be their job to clean up the mess...

It's unfortunate that culture is still something largely determined across racial lines in this country, but it is what it is.

And if people in this country don't start having some very adult conversations about the consequences of certain cultural values we're going to come short collectively.

That's because all white people are racist.

If all white people are automatically racist, why should any white person give a f**k about being a racist?

Clearly it must be much ado about nothing, given the obvious fact that no change in this reality is possible.
