Vince McMahon Sex Trafficking / Resignation Mega Thread

[Ricky Smarks]

That didn’t really directly address my point of Godfather being super over lol.

I didn’t name being a pimp in my list lol

I have no moral objections to the godfather, gimmick and yes, it was very over.

Doesn’t a pimp traffic women?

Although, pimping is awfully close to trafficking, but at least Godfather was clearly goofy.

It was the 90s. Obviously times have changed. His gimmick wouldn't last 5 minutes today.

Silly ass Godfather dancing around with women who were clearly having a good time
Not the same as the plot of Taken

Huge difference

 

[Lethal]

He also booked for Kurt to stalk and want to rape Sharmell. In fact, he threatens to have bikies rape Sara during his feud with Undertaker in 2003. Fuck me sideways

Yeah, I addressed this immediately. They’re pretty close. Although I would say there’s a certain level of consent in sex work, that’s missing from trafficking victims, but I don’t want to get too deep into such a serious topic. When godfather’s entire thing was clearly a joke, unlike that skit we saw with Stephanie that was clearly meant to be taken seriously.

Obviously times change re:Godfather. He was never on screen soliciting them or forcing sex, nor showing photos and sending descriptions of what he wanted to see happen to them

Escorts have 100% control on their consent

I wouldn’t say all the time that is correct but that was the point I was making yes.

 

[OsBlaze]

Yeah. I BELIEVE normally the women Pimps have, aren’t forced into it, and are voluntarily doing it. I’m sure they are probably cases in which that’s not true. But with Godfather, unless I’m forgetting something, they didn’t do anything where the women was being forced to do anything

 

[Shane]

Yeah I guess with pimps it’s technically consensual but the idea of a man selling other women for sex is still inherently gross.

 

[BSE]

My honest take - if it's consensual, I have no issues.

 

[Ricky Smarks]

Let’s not continue to go down the rabbit hole of pimping lol

 

[Professor Booty]

The term Pimp was heavily softened by its over use in hip hop. It doesn’t just mean a dude that beats women into fucking dudes for money anymore.
In a consensual context the Pimp is there to protect the pro from unruly Johns.
