The very strange story of Kye Fortune.

"Gayle Newland, 25, has admitted creating a fake Facebook profile in order to meet girls, using a photo of a good-looking Asian man she called Kye Fortune..."
But she denies misleading a woman who claims she was sexually assaulted by Newman wearing a prosthetic penis after they had intercourse, during which the woman wore a blindfold. Newland denies five counts of sexual assault....

[T]he complainant said: “Every time I met up with Kye Fortune, I either had the mask on already or he would wait outside the door and I would put it on. I was so desperate to be loved. It’s pathetic, so desperate for love, so desperate."...

[T]he pair spent at least 100 hours together in person after striking up an intense online relationship over two years, and even became engaged. At each meeting, the complainant wore a blindfold, not just when they had sex but when they sunbathed or watched films together....

Watching films together while blindfolded; interesting.

Can we blame the victim this time?

Perhaps a Sexuality Bullshit Tag is needed.

Would it be fair to say that one would have to be a considerable yoga practitioner to be able to stretch credulity this far?

The prosecutor in this case is named Matthew Corbett-Jones

Matthew Corbett-Jones is a bully
Matthew Corbett-Jones is a fool
Matthew Corbett-Jones is a silly, albeit malicious person
Matthew Corbett-Jones is a publicity hound
Matthew Corbett-Jones is without integrity
Matthew Corbett-Jones is without judgement
When Matthew Corbett-Jones dies, we may hope soon, people should file by his coffin in the tens of thousands and spit in his face.

Is there some way the prosecutor here could be found guilty and the other two allowed to go on their way, with our blessings and perhaps some new found wisdom?

You are sick, Althouse. You have been on a downward trajectory since gay marriage became an obsession. Go marry a headless chicken. Bye...

Wow.

Desperate people do not make un-desperate decisions.

I sincerely hope that suicide does not follow this story.

There.

Carnifex म्हणाले...

Now is this rapey rape, or lesbian rape, which everyone knows is perfectly okay because, lesbians. Or is it statuary rape( using a prosthetic) which hasn't been popular since Leonardo's days. Or is it just the rape culture bleeding over...I say bleeding, not like Trump uses it in conjunction with women. Ahh!!! I got it! Because the queer was POSING as straight man, it was just old fashion rapey rape. Bush did it...literally.

YoungHegelian म्हणाले...

"Ms X, were not your suspicions in any way aroused, so as to speak, when, even though blindfolded, you discovered that "Mr." Fortune's "penis" had multiple vibration settings?

"No, M'lud."

"And, Ms X, were your suspicions not further aroused past any possible doubt, when that one time "Mr." Fortune took leave of you & asked to borrow a tampon on the way out the door?"

"No, M'lud."

"You really are quite a silly person, are you not, Ms X?"

"I presume so, M'lud."

I'm having difficulty relating to this.

Bob Boyd म्हणाले...

All Newland has to say is she identifies as a badly scarred Asian man, she didn't mean any harm, but like Caitlyn, she just wasn't able to stop herself in time to prevent rear ending somebody.

Its a curiosity. But past that? You can't help, or, fix, or protect, stupid.

Qwerty Smith म्हणाले...

In Shelley v. Kraemer (1948), SCOTUS ruled that Missouri could not enforce a private restrictive covenant which barred selling a particular property to blacks or Asians. It claimed that enforcing the private discriminatory choice would represent a state denial of equal protection.

If the equal protection clause covers gender, and if the Newland case had taken place in the U.S., wouldn't the same reasoning have applied? Gayle Newland's accuser quite openly says that she consented to sex, and is only now bringing a sexual assault charge because she found out that Newland is not a man. If Shelley v. Kraemer is right, wouldn't a state be barred from punishing rapists who would have been regarded as acceptable partners were it not for their race, sex, national origin, religion, age, disability, or other judicially-recognized classifications?

That may seem perverse, but I don't see why it wouldn't follow.

rcocean म्हणाले...

A little too strange to be believed.

Fred Drinkwater म्हणाले...

Conversely, Qwerty, all of Bruce Jenner's sex partners from "before" may have a case of action against (the now) Caitlyn Jenner. I bet not a one of them ever "consented affirmatively" to sex with a woman, at the time they were having sex with "Bruce".

Fred Drinkwater म्हणाले...

Wait, maybe I've got the theory by the wrong end. Was there EVER a "Bruce" Jenner, in law or in reality? Did he/she commit perjury when he/she signed the applications for driver's license and passport (you know, because of the little M/F checkbox)?
Clearly somebody needs to pay some lawyers some cubic dollars to figure this out for us peons.

Skeptical Voter म्हणाले...

Ah yes, "Bush" did it. It reminds me of the wisdom of the bumper sticker on so many young California girls cars. "The only Bush I trust is my own." That wisdom didn't seem to penetrate to English colleges. But then the willfully blind "victim" here may have been too young--or dumb--to absorb the lesson. Plastic Karma is a booger.

I think there was a case once where a male pedophile adopted the persona of a teenage boy on the Internet so that he could meet young girls to rape.

Finally, someone responded to his call and appeared interested. They corresponded for awhile, and then they decided to meet.

But when the male pedophile got there, he was met by a middle-aged woman. It turned out that she was a female pedophile who had adopted the persona of a teenage girl on the Internet so she could find young boys to rape.

tim maguire म्हणाले...

What a strange story. That's all I got, except that the sympathy I have for the victim (if indeed she is a victim) is unrelated to this act of deception.

So...did they give it go? I mean, they were already there and all...

Joe म्हणाले...

I can understand how the mistake was made; after all, Asian men are known to have breasts and speak in female voices. They have large, plastic-like dicks that never subside. They are also under the impression that you can watch movies wearing blindfolds.
