Great wisdom!

How many people are aware that childhood sexual abuse also produces 17 year olds who have scant regard for their bodies? If your 8 yr old son was raped by a Teacher, he is more likely to turn into a sex abuser in his turn 2 decades later. If your 6 year old daughter was molested (or your 10 year old raped), there is a greater likelihood that she would lead a promiscuous lifestyle in later life.


Those of us who name and shame, do WE know her history? No.

Yes, there is sin. She has sinned. The men have too. Does she deserve some benefit of the doubt? Yes. Do the men deserve some kindness? Yes. The law has provided her the anonymity of a gag order, why should we visit vigilante justice upon her?

Do we have all the facts of her young life? No.

D men don't deserve it? It's dat a typo?
But it is a very heavy price to pay for some thrills with an underaged pros.

I think dis high profile case has sent d msg to d men out there,
n made more aware of dis 'little known' law.
However, it is not complete without sending d right msg to SYTs aspring to enter d trade.

No typo.

What heavy price? the fine? or custodial sentence?

For publicity, can't blame anyone. Any crime or illegal trade \"may\" be reported, not juz vice trade. LLST lor.

for the sentence meted out by the courts, if they are \"new\" to the industry, maybe the punishment not so harsh using ignorance as mitigating factor. For those regular players.. no excuse lor..


PS: \"give the woman her due punishment. Not for the men\"

What I meant was, the woman should be punished, but not because \"she got the men into shame\". She should be punished but it is \"not to let the men taste sweet revenge\".. something along that line.

In the original post, I never intend to mean \"the men don't deserve the kindness\" or sthg along that line.. sorrie if it was read that way.

Charged for an offence that they were probably not aware of


I am concerned about the decision taken by the public prosecutor to charge the 44 men for having commercial sex with the the under-aged girl.

I am not defending the actions of these men. Rather, I am questioning the decision to charge them, based on the evidence that was available. According to what I read in the papers, these men were enticed by an online website that showed the girl to be 18 years old. If she was below 18 years, she must have deliberately lied about her age. Surely, she is the bigger culprit?.........

This will be what can be argued to get them off the hook.

Are you being kind to the other naive young girls?

I say, be kind to the society. Send the right message. give the woman her due punishment. Not for the men (they don't deserve it), but for the good of the young and innocent in the society.

D men don't deserve it? It's dat a typo?
But it is a very heavy price to pay for some thrills with an underaged pros.

Was stumped for a moment when I read it. But I think limlim meant the men don't deserve the kindness. [/quote]I believe lilac's right.

Chenonceau, what I was trying to agree upon is that not all 17yr olds are or can be as mature as yours. Parenting is one part of it.. (the moulding) but the rest is her. :love:
