Conversely, it not evidence that the respondent did not commit a crime. The allegations made that Prince Andrew sexually abused a trafficked 17 year old relate to a criminal act, regardless of whether or not criminal charges were brought. Stay classy Andrew.

I’m sure Andrew’s lawyers explained to him that admitting to statutory rape is not something he should do, let alone something he should be proud of. 1. Andrew wasn't being sued for participating in paid sex so the age of consent for that is irrelevant. 2. No one ever accused him of statutory rape.

cleopatra2 Posted February 17, 2022 Share Posted February 17, 2022 1 hour ago, Liverpool Lou said: Get your relevance (and your understanding of what the legal case was) straight, there was no criminal case, the woman was suing him in a civil case. When she first, allegedly, had sex with him in London she was, at 17, i.e. over the age of consent in the UK. When she subsequently, allegedly, did the same thing in the US she was over 18 and there was no allegation of prostitution being an element in the case against Andrew. Prince Andrew has not been accused of trafficking her as evidenced by there being no criminal charges against him, either here or in the US. You are confusing compliance with consent. Staying with UK law, Guffrie would be regarded as a victim of child sexual exploitation. A person under the age of 18 is regarded as a child. It is established fact that Epstien groomed and exploited Guiffre. If Andrew engaged in sexual activity then he would also be inflicting harm . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's like if my gf accuses me I looked at another girl. Option a: "sure, sorry, I don't do it again" Option b: nagging, nagging, nagging.... Seriously? If you are equating the situation of someone with rank, wealth and privilege, who was a long-term friend of a pedophile, with your own, you are attempting to make that concession trivial. My GF understands I can look at other women all I want, as long as I don't touch. Does your GF intimidate you? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why do so many people (deliberately?) misuse that word pedophile? From Wikipedia: Pedophilia (alternatively spelt paedophilia) is a psychiatric disorder in which an adult or older adolescent experiences a primary or exclusive sexual attraction to prepubescent children.[1][2] Although girls typically begin the process of puberty at age 10 or 11, and boys at age 11 or 12,[3] criteria for pedophilia extend the cut-off point for prepubescence to age 13 From here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pedophilia It seems the youngest girl Epstein was accused of having sex with was 14. Having sex with a 14 year old girl is in most countries illegal but the person who does it is by definition no pedophile. There is a huge difference between pedophiles who are interested in prepubescent children and guys who are attracted to girls who are "mature" enough to be able to have children. Rich and famous people like to have sex just like ordinary people. One big difference is that many young and pretty girls (legal or not) prefer the rich and famous. I spoke with a couple of musicians who played in bands. They all told me part of the attraction was that lots of girls were eager to go with the "famous" guys. Personally I don't blame any famous person if he takes what is on offer. That's the whole point of being famous, or not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, just the news / distraction creating folks do, and .... hook line & sinker. Win win wins all around. I see some people who cannot put their smartphones down. I see some people checking their phones every 3 minutes. It is like an obsession, and a compulsive addiction for many. I wonder, what would we do without our phones? Think back just 15 years ago when few had them. No social media related societal ills. Kids actually played outdoors. People interacted with one another. And that generation actually had social skills. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Considering that this thread is in a Thai forum with lots of member who are in Thailand since decades I would like to see how many of those members always checked the age of their girl of the day. I remember the time when in some bars the front row was filled with 16 year old girls. I don't remember that too many guys complained about that at that time. Obviously now times are different and we all would be outraged if we would ever meet a girl in a bar who is not at least 20 years old. But some time ago, about the time when Epstein and Andrew were active, times were different - at least that is what other people tell me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were not different in the USA, which is one of the most puritanical countries in the world. More religious organizations than I could shake a stick at. The weird thing is, while prostitution is illegal there, filming hardcore pornography is not. Go figure. Have never had a problem with working out whether a girl is too young here, as I prefer mature women. Ones that understand themselves, and me. Most legal age teenagers are as dumb as a can of soup. The verbal gymnastics you are engaged in make all kinds of excuses for Prince Andrew, including a spot of victim blaming. Putting it bluntly, he's a sleazebag who thought his position would protect him from the consequences of his actions. Som nam na. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And about victim blaming: Sometimes I really don't want to hear that word "victim" in this kind of situation again. If someone attacks a woman and rapes her and hurts her then she is clearly a victim. If a girl or a woman decides she wants to make a lot of money by visiting rich guys I don't pretend they are victims. She didn't have to visit him. She could have walked away anytime. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
