International News Title: Record number of condoms will be distributed at this year's Winter Olympics: 110,000 are set to be given away Already a record has been smashed ahead of this month's Winter Olympics in South Korea - for the largest number of free condoms handed out at a Winter Games, organisers say. A total of 110,000 contraceptive sheaths will be distributed before the beginning of the games on Friday week (9 February) - 10,000 more than at Vancouver in 2010 or Sochi in 2014. With nearly 3,000 athletes taking part, the number of condoms distributed equates to an average of 37.6 per sportsman and sportswoman - they will be made available to all participants. The amount of condoms distributed ahead of major sporting events such as the Olympics and Winter Olympics has steadily increased. 'Baskets with condoms will be placed at both men's and women's toilets at athletes' villages in Pyeongchang and Gangneung, the main press centre, the media village as well as medical centres, the organisers said. Rubber manufacturer Convenience Co has donated 100,000 of the condoms, saying it did so for 'a successful hosting of the Winter Olympics and the prevention of the spread of the HIV virus'.

#2. To: misterwhite (#0) Meh. Tons of teens and twenty-something athletes at the height of fertility and attractiveness are having sex. Gee, what a shock. This has been going on for well over 50 years at the various Olympiad.
#3. To: Tooconservative (#2) Tons of teens and twenty-something athletes at the height of fertility and attractiveness are having sex. Yet the lives of these little sluts are ruined forever if the team doctor touches them inappropriately. Got it.
#4. To: misterwhite (#3) Yet the lives of these little sluts are ruined forever if the team doctor touches them inappropriately. Got it. Very sickening statement. Do you know difference between consent and mutual agreement?
#5. To: A K A Stone (#4) Do you know difference between consent and mutual agreement? No. Is there one? The total number of athletes who have now come forward against Nassar is 265. 265. Yet not one spoke out at the time to expose him.
#6. To: misterwhite (#3) Yet the lives of these little sluts are ruined forever if the team doctor touches them inappropriately. You haven't followed this as closely as you should. He was perving on these young girls in a subtle way. Some of them didn't realize exactly what he was doing at the time. But he was definitely perving on them. It wasn't something as blatant as Sandusky committing sodomy on a teen boy in a college shower and having it witnessed and reported to top staffers. This is not a Sandusky-type case. But it was very real and significant pattern of perving over decades.
#7. To: misterwhite (#5) The total number of athletes who have now come forward against Nassar is 265. 265. Yet not one spoke out at the time to expose him. Just give it up already, Captain Repulso. This is not the windmill you want to tilt at.
#8. To: Tooconservative (#7) Captain Repulso. Lol
#9. To: Tooconservative (#6) He was perving on these young girls in a subtle way. So subtle, the girls didn't know they were being perv'd and didn't report it at the time. But years later they were told they should be upset, so they were. And what a performance they put on in front of the judge. 265 girls and not one went to the police to stop him.
#10. To: Tooconservative (#7) Just give it up already, Captain Repulso. Go ahead and hide behind the nature of the crime rather than discuss it in an open forum. Fucking coward.
#11. To: misterwhite (#10) Go ahead and hide behind the nature of the crime rather than discuss it in an open forum. Fucking coward. You'd sing a different tune if some doctor, under color of authority, had repeatedly perved on your daughter when she was too young and inexperienced to understand what he was doing.
#12. To: Tooconservative (#11) Didn't misterwhite make a similar pro pedophile post a couple of months ago? I cannot recall the exact details but I remember criticizing him for something along those lines.
#13. To: A K A Stone (#12) I don't recall it but he does have a habit of periodically tilting at the most revolting windmills imaginable. It's a notable character flaw.
#14. To: Tooconservative (#11) You'd sing a different tune if some doctor, under color of authority, had repeatedly perved on your daughter when she was too young and inexperienced to understand what he was doing. Well, it appears as though his "perving" (whatever that was) didn't affect the girls at the time since none of the 265 girls went to the police. Only years later, after the girls were told this perving should bother them for the rest of their lives, did the floodgates open. You want to punish this guy for perving? Fine. He pled guilty. But don't bring forward 265 girls to testify that their lives are forever ruined.
#15. To: A K A Stone, misterwhite (#12) WSJ: US Olympic Committee knew about Nassar abuse for a year — and did nothing I suppose we'll have to wait to see if misterwhite wants to saw the branch off behind him defending this pedophile doctor. It's kinda creepy that he thinks he has a horse in this race.
#16. To: misterwhite (#14) You want to punish this guy for perving? Fine. He pled guilty. But don't bring forward 265 girls to testify that their lives are forever ruined. And by what authority and justification do you wish to silence his victims? Let them speak. Stop trying to gag these victims, the same way that he did.
#17. To: Tooconservative (#15) US Olympic Committee knew about Nassar abuse for a year Nasser wasn't a coach, or a trainer or even a physical therapist. He was a doctor. My doctor stuck his finger in me -- can I charge him with sexual abuse?
#18. To: Tooconservative (#16) And by what authority and justification do you wish to silence his victims? The U.S. Constitution. Because of his plea bargain (which as far as I can tell was no bargain at all) Nassar had no opportunity to cross examine his accusers individually. They could say whatever they wanted in open court. They were not under oath.
#19. To: Tooconservative (#2) Meh. Tons of teens and twenty-something athletes at the height of fertility and attractiveness are having sex. Gee, what a shock. Not to mention insanely healthy and fit. It makes not one bit of difference about what your opinions of sex before marriage or what laws you want to pass,the most universal law in the universe is "boys will be boys,and girls will be girls". In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments. #20. To: misterwhite (#3) (Edited) Yet the lives of these little sluts are ruined forever if the team doctor touches them inappropriately. Are you SERIOUSLY trying to compare the rape of a minor with consensual sex between to young adults? ESPECIALLY the rape of minors by people in positions of authority that they are told to trust. In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments. #21. To: misterwhite (#5) The total number of athletes who have now come forward against Nassar is 265. 265. Yet not one spoke out at the time to expose him. They were children,and he was an authority figure they had been told to obey. Which make his crimes especially evil. In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments. #22. To: Tooconservative (#15) I suppose we'll have to wait to see if misterwhite wants to saw the branch off behind him defending this pedophile doctor. It's kinda creepy that he thinks he has a horse in this race. It does seem to effect him in a personal way somehow,doesn't it? BTW,I am NOT suggesting he might be a child molester. It is possible he might have been molested himself when he was a child,or have a friend or close family member that was molested with negative consequences as a result. His personal life history is none of our business because he could well be an innocent that was abused. In the entire history of the world,the only nations that had to build walls to keep their own citizens from leaving were those with leftist governments. #23. To: misterwhite (#0)
#24. To: A K A Stone (#23)
So does a phone call from some Romanian gymnast saying she's pregnant with your child.
#25. To: misterwhite (#17) My doctor stuck his finger in me -- can I charge him with sexual abuse? If he did it solely for his own sexual gratification, yes. Of course. How stupid are you to even ask that question? Could you point on the doll where the bad doctor touched you?
#26. To: Tooconservative (#25) If he did it solely for his own sexual gratification, yes. Of course. How stupid are you to even ask that question? Are you saying that every time Nassar, a doctor, touched one of the girls it was solely for his own sexual gratification? We'll never know, of course, since he had no opportunity to respond to those accusations.
#27. To: misterwhite (#26) since he had no opportunity He had every opportunity to talk.
#28. To: A K A Stone (#27) He had every opportunity to talk. Not in court. I saw him try to object once and the judge immediately pounced and said, "Are you recanting your plea?"
