Title: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist. Post by: cyan on April 29, 2008, 08:34:16 pm For all the would-be rapists out there:
http://blogs.usatoday.com/ondeadline/2008/04/md-court-expand.html It's getting to the point where, unless you're an NBA player, raping just isn't even worth the trouble any more. Title: Re: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist. Post by: StL FinFan on April 29, 2008, 08:49:09 pm Nowhere in there did it say the woman was bipolar. (or biploar for that matter)
That being said - WTF? If you decide to stop, you need to give the guy a chance to pull out. Five seconds and this is clogging up our court system? At least the poor guy got his conviction overturned. He'll probably be scarred for life. Title: Re: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist. Post by: cyan on April 29, 2008, 08:51:47 pm Yeah, I know....but if the woman you're considering sleeping with is, your chances of becoming a rapist are astronomically multiplied.
Title: Re: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist. Post by: StL FinFan on April 29, 2008, 08:52:20 pm Excuse me?
You need to check the definition of bipolar. Title: Re: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist. Post by: cyan on April 29, 2008, 08:54:29 pm ???
No I don't. "Bipolar disorder is not a single disorder, but a category of mood disorders defined by the presence of one or more episodes of abnormally elevated mood...or mixed episodes in which features of both mania and depression are present." Manic depressives are certainly more likely to change their minds in the middle of sex than the average person is...they have chemical imbalances to contend with. Anyway, it was intended as a pun to begin with. Title: Re: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist.

Title: Re: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist. Post by: cyan on April 29, 2008, 09:02:37 pm I never said I was a nice person.
Anyway, you got me researching and this is what I came up with: "Signs and symptoms of the depressive phase of bipolar disorder include: ...loss of interest in sexual activity..." "[Signs and symptoms of the manic phase of bipolar disorder include]: ...Sexual drive may increase..." Title: Re: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist. Post by: StL FinFan on April 29, 2008, 09:05:17 pm Well guess what? It doesn't make you bipolar to change your mind.
Title: Re: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist. Post by: cyan on April 29, 2008, 09:08:03 pm Wow. Way to use some stellar superpowers of circular logic and putting words into my mouth to make it seem like I said that in the first place.
The point stands: If the woman is bipolar, you should probably tread carefully. And on the flipside, if you're treading carefully, the woman is not necessarily bipolar. Title: Re: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist. Post by: StL FinFan on April 29, 2008, 09:10:53 pm I'll be sure and tell my husband that next time we have sex.

Title: Re: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist. Post by: run_to_win on April 29, 2008, 11:09:02 pm It doesn't make you bipolar to change your mind. Depending on when you change your mind it can "make" you much, much worse than just bipolar. Title: Re: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist. Post by: Defense54 on April 29, 2008, 11:34:48 pm Must be a whole lot more to this story. How the heck did they prove it and why would a state Attorney go through the trouble?
Title: Re: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist. Post by: run_to_win on April 30, 2008, 02:47:11 am Quote Maouloud Baby was convicted of first-degree rape in December 2004 after jurors heard testimony that the 16-year-old continued having sex with an 18-year-old woman for "about five or so seconds" after she told him to stop. Absolutely Ridiculous. It won't be long until the woman can change her mind afterwards and every pissed-off ex will be filing rape charges. Title: Re: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist. Post by: Phishfan on April 30, 2008, 08:49:01 am Five seconds isn't much time at all. Unless it was proceeded by "GET THE HELL OFF ME AND PULL YOUR PENIS OUT NOW!" I would have probably thought it was just sex talk at first.
Title: Re: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist. Post by: Dave Gray on April 30, 2008, 01:23:39 pm I would've already been done by then, so I'm not too concerned.
Title: Re: Note: Do not sleep with biploar women in Maryland, rapist. Post by: bsfins on April 30, 2008, 01:29:42 pm Sex? What's that? You mean with an actual woman?
