one story ages ago, around here where i live was a flasher who flashed at children and their mothers. so mum is picking me up from school (walking), and he jumps out, and flashes.. and she bursts out laughing, and and points..
needless to say he never did that again.
the hysteria about pedophiles is just that, hysteria. its not one in 3 its one in 3 who were asked. which is different. the phrase lies , damn lies and statistics come to mind.
child abuse is real, but it isnt as great as society tells us. but it is an indicator, of the mistrust of society.
