"Can’t even begin to think what was going through his head. "

that being what would be going through the head of any 40 yr old male contacting a 16 yr old, be it boy or girl

sex

and I am not sure why sexuality plays any part in this

it was an action of 'grooming' ie communication and behaviour towards forming a sexual relationship

so that what was 'going through his head', in reply to the much earlier question


Huh?

Where on earth have I suggested that sexuality has anything to do with it?

I think not

I merely pointed out that a 40 yr old man contacting a 16 yr old would be doing it with one thing 'going through his mind'

now why not read the thread and see how you and another spun it after


Righto.

If you're in certain positions of responsibility you can be done for engaging in or soliciting sexual relationships with people under 18. I don't know whether that would cover him though, it was designed mainly with people like teachers, youth workers etc. in mind. Given the level of authority invested in his role though I do wonder if he could be covered by that.


The same applied to me when I was taxiing. You're in a position of influence as you may be spending time with the same people (under 18s) most days so are in a position to groom.

There was one girl* who had a bit of a troubled background who would hop into the front of the car and flirt with the drivers. I made her sit in the back and eventually refused to take her. She went on to accuse another driver of inappropropriate behaviour and he lost his job.

I'm guessing that a potential legal issue could be this bit, " inviting him to dinner and to a parliamentary event as his guest" as he's using his position of power, hence the use of the term 'grooming'?


*It's possibly more common than maybe people realise, but this one was particularly forward.
