The headline reveals the author’s motives are political, and that she is willing to deceive her readers to gain political advantage Timothy Faust

What (I wonder) constitutes a “young girl” in the author’s mind? A 17 year old is a minor, and she may be considered a young woman. She is no longer a “young girl”. At best, the author infantilizes the subject of her story, whom she purports to protect.

The fact that the author further sensationalizes her article by including a picture of several young women’s backsides clothed in swimsuits is the apogee of hypocrisy.

Let it go.

The article isn’t for you.

It’s a another narrative in the cacophony of “ain’t it awful” rhetoric designed to create solidarity among the Sisterhood.
