A lot of the Afghan players play in the Indian premier league. Those guys probably don't even live in Afghanistan to begin with so no need to disappear

Yeah, that is what I meant by "doesn't exactly come out of it looking great".
As far as finding the details disturbing, the saying goes "Don't kink shame". People are into different things. Just because he is into the roleplay of it doesn't necessarily mean that he wants to do anything that is non-consensual. People are complicated and just because we might not understand it doesn't mean that it is anything "wrong".

There is also the case in Ohio, and the fact his texts confirm a lot of the disturbing details, which are disturbing even if you believe he's innocent of the charges. It's really violent, and his enjoyment is frightening.

It's hard to gauge how much people want something under an oppressive regime. People should have the freedom to choose whether they want to live that lifestyle not be entirely forced into living it.

I was more talking in general rather than sporting terms, as this seems to be CA stance.

Was it right to have no black player policy at Red Sox? This is 2023 and Bharat has no Pakistani players allowed in IPL? When this xenophobia in IPL will end?

What you gotta say about BCCI monopoly on Bharti players to not allowed to play in other T20 leagues? Will ECB and Cricket Australia ever grow a ball and refuse their players from playing in IPL if BCCI keep monopoly on Bharti players?

Yeah, it was an incredibly odd situation. Bauer and the woman had a consensual sexual relationship, which included a component of rough sex. I believe there were text messages where she had explicitly consented to things like choking and slapping. I think she also admitted that. Additionally, the allegations hinged on something that was claimed to have occurred during the first of two encounters. So, after he had supposedly sexually assaulted her, she continued contacting him and met up with him again for another encounter with rough sex. I also think she had taken a smiling selfie of herself in bed with him the morning after the supposed assault.
Bauer doesn't exactly come out of it looking great. Given the agreed upon facts, it isn't unreasonable to believe that he may have actually assaulted the woman. However, it is also reasonable to question the woman's allegations. Her motives are questionable given the timeline and the fact that she had gone back to see him again after the supposed assault. I wouldn't blame anyone for choosing to believe either one of them or neither of them or both of them. It is entirely possible that Bauer genuinely believed that she consented, or she had genuinely given consent but then it got out of hand and she regretted it but didn't verbalize revoking consent. They are probably the only two people that actually know what really happened.

So the Taliban existing as normal is okay then as long as they don’t infringe on women’s rights.

A lot of women agree with it. The power of reactionary ideology to convince the oppressed their oppression is good is incredible.
