Prince Andrew, Duke of York, named in underage 'sex slave' lawsuit

[Pickman's model]

And, on doing so, you'd see that, whilst sex with someone under 13 is considered statutory rape (s.5 - "Rape of a Child Under 13"), consensual sex with someone over 13 but under 16 isn't (s.9 - "Sexual Activity with a Child").

there is only very marginal value to this post

Might be useful to know when insisting someone on the internet is incorrect though.

Magnus McGinty if you have a problem with my posts take it up with me directly, not with snide comments or by taggibg other posters.

I took issue with your post and as you were claiming statutory rape only applied if the child was under 13, which is not the case. If you don't want your posts corrected, check the facts before posting. Quote your sources. And get over yourself.

But it is the case in the context of the point I was making. I’ve no idea why me saying that has annoyed you or why you appear to be singling me out for this kind of attention of late but then I don’t know the inner workings of your mind.

I think you're wrong on this. Only the s.5 offence - which is limited to under 13s - is classed as (statutory) rape.

incorrectly correcting is a contradiction in terms

There’s oxymorons about.

"Miscorrection" apparently exists as a word.

I am happy to be corrected. I think I was getting confused between the statutes and what is generally thought of as rape.

 

[Magnus McGinty]

Thanks for the apology…

For the love of God I am not singling you out.

But your track record on these threads is not great, is it?

I can be clumsy and a wind-up merchant. I’ve returned from an 8 month hiatus with the feeling that I CBA with bun fights anymore really. Maybe it was the pandemic but last year it affected my mental health. I know people will view me on my history but I am trying to post in good faith.

Then as I have respectfully suggested before, think carefully about what you're posting on threads where women's issues are central to the discussion. Take care with language you use and the content of your posts.

If the events around Sarah Everard have shown anything, it's that many women have had enough.

I agree. And I don’t think I’ve been anything but respectful in my replies to you. Apart from the snide comments of course. But you must bear in mind that if I feel someone is needling me unnecessarily then I’ll slip back into form.

You did single Magnus out, sanctimoniously, and given yours was a misinformed view it's churlish of you to not apologise,

I did not. I also criticised Raheem.

Well if I apologise now it's hardly going be seen as genuine and sincere, is it.

Ah just carry on. No damage done. I quite like that you’re holding me to account, even when you’re wrong

Thank you Magnus, that's very gracious of you.

I apologise for holding you to account in a less than respectful way and will try to do better in the future.

Ah. A valid point I missed due to having them on ignore.

You didn’t need to apologise, but I accept and thanks. I more wanted compliments on my unintended almost-rhyme.

I'll take that apology now

FFS, you two should get a room.
