GeeGolly February 3, 2016 Share February 3, 2016 It all felt sketchy to me that Danica didn't file a suit until after Ashley Madison. I believe she has already made money from tabloids and more exposure. Maybe its all lies or some half truths, either way it appears that there's not enough evidence to move forward for her to win. I'm still not sure Josh did anything more than lust in his heart and with his eyes. In Fundyland thinking about the dirty deed is as bad as doing it. And, why does the Devil spend so much time messing with and tempting Fundies? I guess it's good for most of us cuz he appears to be a very busy entity. 3 Link to comment
Arwen Evenstar February 3, 2016 Share February 3, 2016 (edited) Even though Smuggs is vile, it sucks to be accused of something you didn't do. I once knew someone who was accused of behaving badly by a woman who wanted to spite him. Though she dropped the charges she left plenty of damage in her wake. No one deserves that, so the likely scenario Danica is lying or exaggerating to get her 15 minutes is entirely credible. Do I think Josh roughed a woman up like that? I'm sure he's a swine in bed when it comes to his wife's pleasure, and a patriarchal pig all around, but if I really think about it, I don't see him capable of that kind of violence. I guess we'll never really know what happened. Edited February 3, 2016 by Arwen Evenstar 3 Link to comment

Tabbygirl521 February 3, 2016 Share February 3, 2016 The patriarch on the stand would be a defense lawyer's nightmare. Pa Duggar would, as always, assume his patriarchal 'I know more than anyone else' attitude and, going against all legal advice, would endlessly spout scripture and his usual level of logic and wisdom, as his previous patriarchal debacle 'the girls didn't even know it had happened' and 'it wasn't rape or anything like that'. Dumb. Ass. Doesn't it just make your brain bleed? It is a sin of the first order of the guy you've been assigned to marry touches you, but if you're set upon in the night by your brother, meh. Well, I exaggerate - the parents DID realize it wasn't normal or good, but why they then minimize the impact makes no sense. 2 Link to comment

When children do good things, parents are proud of them. By the same token, when a child does something negative, most parents feel - at least to some extent - responsible or connected to it. By minimizing Josh's activities, Boob & Me-chelle minimize their own blame, guilt, shame etc. What he did is not really so bad, so we're not really so bad. In their own minds, of course. The general public is not going to cut them this kind of slack. Edited February 3, 2016 by Wellfleet 11 Link to comment
Wellfleet February 3, 2016 Share February 3, 2016 Perfect for all those insecure little boy patriarchs who need women to submit to their almighty patriarchy, yet, behind closed doors, they want their wife to be their mommy. Men of this ilk make me nauseous. Men like this make nearly ALL women nauseous. Which IMO is a big part of why so many of them become involved with under-age girls. They're basically afraid of women their own age. And the nausea continues... 7 Link to comment

In related news, where is this "okay and not okay" list? I didn't find it. (Must keep up with what the fundies find acceptable these days...)

Well, I exaggerate - the parents DID realize it wasn't normal or good, but why they then minimize the impact makes no sense. From the Jessa and Jill interview post molestation gate, pre Ashley Madison/Danica gate, it really sounded to me Jim Bob was the only one who really thought it wasn't normal and didn't happen in a lot of families. Not to defend him too much, bc in the end he did hide it all with the rest of them, but seriously. Michelle brushed it off like it was something all teen boys do, and I think Jill actually said it happens in a lot of families. NO IT DOESN'T. I get victims wanting confirmation that they didn't cause their abuse, or wanting to minimize things so they're not at the front of their memories 24/7, but it's really disturbing that those girls truly believe this stuff happens all the time. Adult. Nursing. I backed out of that site just in the nick of time. Now it would seem that fundies are overly preoccupied with sex! Wonder what bible verses they find that give the godly ok to adult nursing. And almost everything else on that site. Now I kinda' feel bad for married fundie wimmens. Whatever a man wants? I seriously had never heard of a few things on there. No wonder Jana isn't racing to the alter if she thinks all that is expected and typical of marriage. 5 Link to comment

Teena February 4, 2016 Share February 4, 2016 I recall reading in one of the Duggers' books that their sexual choices are quite limited. I don't recall what was written (although I looked all over the place trying to find the quote) but at the time, I was completely shocked that they had such a vanilla approach. If I remember, oral sex is off the table, as well as most "positions".

And its even weirder that not a single photo of him has leaked out to the world. No other celebrity gets that much privacy at rehab. Baby Meredith must not even know her father, because he's been gone since she was what? A month old? Creepy and weird. Even for the Duggars, its just bizarre. And he's off studying the Bible, while Anna parents 4 kids and lives in a commune with her in-laws. Yeah, that seems fair. 6 Link to comment

I expect that very few if any of the patriarchal or quiverful sorts of fundies subscribe to the Marriage Bed ideas. I'm sure some of them have personal kinks but I doubt that many in those strains have an actual philosophy of making pleasure a value, especially since it includes physical pleasure for the woman. As Michelle said: "Don't worry. It doesn't take long." They're too much about the value of reserving sex for procreation (and more procreation and more procreation and more procreation) and keeping woman in her place (which does not include expecting her headship to accommodate her desire for physical pleasure).

I think Josh loves his kids but would be more than happy to ride off in the sunset with a new girlfriend and leave Anna behind at the TTH. His reaction to M#4 pretty much summed up his attitude towards life at that point. That's why Jesus Jail was such a joke. Josh has been a Gothard kid for close to thirty years. He can rattle off platitudes and Bible verses in his sleep. I doubt there's been any deep soul searching going on during the six months he was away. 11 Link to comment

Having spent time among Fundies, I'm not surprised that the Gothard devotees would have to set a higher standard for themselves. It's almost a competition to see which group of Fundies is more pious than another. I used to speak truth to power at a really young age...That's not even in the Bible..."We know that, but we set a higher standard to set ourselves apart as a witness ". OK but if it's a choice...then why is it a rule to join the church? or Jesus drank wine..."But it was really grape juice" or my favorite...."they had no sanitation so wine was cleaner . Really? Is that the best they can do? Fundie schools used to threaten kids who even ate at a restaurant that served alcohol or who went to a movie even to see a G rated movie ....with certain expulsion. Not surprised that given limited sex education the Gothard bunch would eschew sites like TMB and Covenant Spice as too mainstream. After all most of these ATI automatons don't let their kids attend a brick and mortar school, trade school, or college of any kind. Besides isn't everything I would need to know be taught in Wisdumb Booklets or spoon fed to me as required and need to know? Just like Anna telling poor simple Prissy what delights she could possibly expect from The Fabulous One on her wedding night. Encouraging participation in Fundie websites not ATI approved might let those wimmins know they had a right to not only wish for sexual pleasure but to receive it. The last thing the headship should hear is to find out what a selfish and insensitive lout he is in the bed, right? I imagine Gothard sanctioned sex is just as exciting as everything else we know about the Duggars...boring!!!!! Let's not forget Michelle Duggar quickly proclaiming that there didn't need to be modesty standards for footwear (when a foot fetish is the most common fetish out there) when their cult leader had a creepy foot fetish whilst claiming to be a sworn virgin.

I don't think cheapskate Boob paid her anything. Obviously Josh had proof that he was not wherever or doing whatever. Plus, her attorney was most likely on a contingency plan and decided it was a losing game. This is no way takes away from the loser I believe Josh to be.

I'm guessing Josh's documents may have potentially incriminated her, as in an investigation into potential criminal charges against her may have been launched if those documents were presented to the court.
