I never said yes


"The CPS say the majority of the cases they deal with involve young girls who know their attacker and drink is often involved. They say this leads to problems with jury members' perceptions and prejudices."  From http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-17487519

I want my daughter to grow up in a world where we teach boys that rape is wrong in every circumstance.  Not one where we teach girls that wearing a short skirt or drinking too much, is asking for it.

Watch this tonight. if you miss it, there's always iplayer.

  1. So very true and such a tough, tough subject to cover. I know because I've just been writing about it for an upcoming post. Not the easiest thing for a man to cover in a lady's magazine!!
