Hey Truck Driver Wannabe (great Forum name by the way) - I’m a medical doctor and have recently completed extra training in helping people who’ve experienced sexual assault. There are no ‘shoulds’ (except that the perpetrator should not have done it). I can’t do this topic justice in a Forum commentary (nor would I want to) but if you’d like to contact me directly, I’m happy to talk to you more about this.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts. This whole post is dense with super sensible and helpful generally applicable advice. I really enjoyed reading this.
Why does the Forum have a ‘karma system’? Why was it called a ‘karma system’ over any other description? Is the karma system a truly accurate reflection of a persons input into discussions on the forum?
Hi OP - thanks for posting. This is something I’ve been thinking a lot about too. The doctor based out of the Netherlands running Aid Access is doing a lot of good work in this space (specifically to abortion). It’s a system that has been widely scaled.
Hey Dan - thank you for your comments! Yes, this must be a fairly common anxiety. I think you make a good point that a retraction or correction goes a long way - I would certainly respect someone for publicly retracting or correcting something.
