To GENUINE readers,
Official statistics confirm that the vast majority of sexual (and other) abuse of children occurrs WITHIN families -- not an accusation but a sad fact. We even have a word for it - INCEST.
Numerous cases of women injuring their children to get into hospital so that THEY (the mothers) get attention are recorded - so frequent in fact that it too ,gets a name-- "Von Munchausen's by proxy" -- the tragic cases of SIDS (sudden infant death syndome) due to mothers smothering their children to death (recorded by surveillance camera ) as a result of post natal depression or other mental problems are also not unknown (except to you it appears) a number of prosecutions for infanticide by mothers are currently in train and reported by mainstream media -- it is unusual for men to engage in this activity in fact.
Haven't heard about the sexual predation by female teachers of their young male students either? -- several high profile cases reported including jailing of several female teachers,pregnancies and even oddball marriages (mismatch ages,support etc in jail ceremonies ...) look up the case of ex Senator Cheryl Kernot (Australian democrats - had an affair with a young male student when a teacher ) "Feminist" Bettina Arndt has written of her being sexually fondled by an uncle when she was a child but,said she didn't find it traumatic and thought a lot of girls probably had the same experience (the Australian -- should be able to locate her article) -- that's from a woman. Likewise Germaine Greer with her "homage' to the young male nude ---- healthy or what ?
I could go on but I think ADG's feigned ignorance and hope to be "bolstered" in her righteous indignation might be a bit false sounding...
Or ,maybe you agree with Queen Victoria ?
Female teachers (prison guards, soldiers, etc etc ) ARE quite capable of sexual misconduct -- ex girls school pupils are not lying ADG.
Please see the last posting to the "democracy ...or is it?" thread for another view with factual example .
The "Sydney" thread details really nasty sexual harassment /abuse within an SES family environment .
I think that you (Dame Edna) and your chatting buddy FT are the sum of it -- the facts about female underrepresentation in most of the dirty,manual, industrial occupations were not to your liking but are facts (I think I recall someone,possibly Bella, coming in to say, amidst your usual welter of 'righteous indignation without proof', well..... yes ..he's right about that .... etc etc also the preponderance of male composers etc etc --that is just how things are ( do you force your boys to play with dolls or girls to play bulldozer driver just to satisfy your prejudices ? -recall your little diatribe on that one ?)
You seem to want to "side" with someone all the time ADG - perhaps because you have no ideas of your own or any real connection to the subject (except your expressed concern over that inheritance -- hope they don't reincarnate too quickly and come back for it !)
Maybe you cannot stand on your own and carry a coherent argument in your own case -- we don't know since you concentrate on flippant little posts that add nothing but seek to ingratiate quite frequently .
I don't waste time watching neighbours and type quite fast so don't worry about my use of time -- I have a real objective as well .
The only PM I quoted was my own . You are what is called a "leech" in netspeak ADG - all take and no give and always 'popping in' to let everyone know how important you are -- quick and dirty Using insulting terms like "troll" etc is no substitute for a little of substance.
Again, GENUINE readers of this thread with issues of sexual misconduct;-
Please ignore the innuendo by ADG and do take action about REAL sexual abuse -- ESPECIALLY if by your parents - they have no RIGHT to do anything that is improper just because they are parents or older.
Take advantage of the organizations like Broken Rites or the "kids helpline" (in Australia) - don't put up with it or stay in fear.
