Men "try" and women "allow".
 
That leaves a lot of room for error. If they didn't though, I feel (pun intended) the human race is doomed  ;D

They may well have done :)


I bet you were one of those who slapped my face back then. The funny thing is being a child of the "Swinging 60s" I was actually quite shy. I didn't come into my own until later. I didn't lose my virginity until I was 15, in the back entry behind Droylsden co-op.  :-[  ;D

Smiling.  :) Would you believe I was painfully shy back then. I went down the entry as a result of my friends daring me to "Do it". I hadn't a clue what to do and I remember the much more experienced partner tutting and showing me what to do. To call it a sexual experience was probably a travesty of the Trades description act.  :-[ :-[ :-[

A female reporter, I think for the Telegraph, said she was thoroughly fondled, but didn't make a complaint.
Don't know, why say it now, when he's guilty.

Some people just come crawling out of the woodwork to seek attention.  Have you seen the civil case that someone is bringing against him now he's been found guilty?  Allegedly, someone says he subjected them to a serious sexual assault when they were of primary school age.  The CPS rejected that case.  EVEN the CPS in their desperate hunt for muck to rake, rejected that case.

Quite right too.  At least the judge wasn't a gormless, muck-raking, attention-seeking idiot.  So many of them about lately......

Why anyone should think what he has done was just harmless fun shows the depth of self worth can fall to.

Sexism may have been rife in the sixties perhaps as a backlash to feminism, or maybe feminism was in answer to sexism :-\

It may have been the 'culture' in the sixties, 'the permissive society' etc.

It's only the type of men who grope women who think it's harmless fun in order to justify it.
