'I have behaved foolishly' on 15:17 - Feb 6 by HARRY10 | "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 have behaved foolishly' on 15:38 - Feb 6 by HARRY10 | 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 |

'I have behaved foolishly' on 12:44 - Feb 6 by Herbivore | 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. |  |
