					<description>Well I think Its Both of there Faults.,

1.Akon is wrong for not show no respect to the girl young or old you should show respect.

2.That little girl should have been home doin some homework or somethin instead of fallin for that pure pressure from her family and akon.

3.The parents should have kept tabs on there daughter instead lettin her little behind go all around enough for ass to get snatched up and raped or kidnapped.</description>

					<description>PS Just for the record, I am not suggesting that sexuality is debasing. The video was NOT about sex. It was COMPLETELY about dominance. That it was performed through the vehicle of sexuality was almost circumstantial.</description>

					<description>Regardless of her apparent age, why is it ok to simulate the RAPE of a woman of any age in front of a cheering crowd? What does it mean that it's considered standard 'party ethic'? Why is 'sexiness' somehow equated with a woman's willingness to be debased? Pop culture now is so pornified - I feel truly alienated... it just seems so, I dunno, pathological, mentally ill. Those people would rather keep their diseases than ever admit that it was a disease... Something to consider: Just because you happen to like it doesn't make it healthy... 

I seriously doubt Akon (or whoever the fuck he is) even gives a rat's ass whether the whole scenario was psychologically damaging to the girl. I don't care if she seemed to be willingly participating. There's a thousand people cheering her on, so the message she's receiving throughout is 'It pleases us very much that you debase yourself.' It's easiest to just comply in that kind of scene... can you imagine the consequences of telling the guy 'No - get off me!' onstage... the heckling she'd have gotten. I can imagine it was probably really intense for her - and no doubt traumatic in some very deep ways. I think that not a few men would like to believe that young women are immune to that sort of thing so they don't have to be accountable for treating people inhumanely. Trust me, that was fucked up.

I don't know if anyone should be charged, or if there can be such a thing as blaming. The girl did what lots of experimenting teenage girls do (emulate their heros who let themselves be publicly debased). Akon did what most hip-hop stars do: debase women to make himself look cool. The girls parents did what most parents do: slip up in their judgment.

The problem is with pop culture... What kind of nutjobs pay good money to watch people hurt other people is what it boils down to.</description>

					<description>Wow... that was horrible. She looked 14, from what i can see.

Akon can go hang himself. This video made me disgusted. I do like his songs, however. I'm just gonna go on limewire and download hsi songs from now on.

And most likely, his record company MADE him sing that. 

Jut still.. wow...</description>

					<description>Is it not possible to assign blame to both parties?

I think that we, as a society, risk not learning enough from certain events insisting upon a mentality in which one party must be 'right', and the other 'wrong'--especially when this occurs because we are inclined to protect pet causes. </description>

					<description>OK I'm not saying that Akon is completely blameless but the girl wasn't exactly fighting him off. What exactly was she doing in a dance off of this nature? We all know that what they really mean is the slutiest girl wins. Her parents shouldn't have let her go. She doesnt really need to apologize for it but i wouldn't call her a &quot;victim&quot; by ANY means. There's fourteen year olds doing wilder things on youtube. There's plenty of blame to go around in this matter.

And before anyone says anything Im not an Akon fan. Never bought a song or album of his in my life. Just putting in my 2 cents. </description>
