I have already stated that if this case involved male nurses and female patients and I was to say the same thing then the arguments I have made would become disgraceful and without merit and without shame.
If male nurses abused elderly women in this way we would be looking at very serious crimes.
But - and I dont know how many times I can say this or how I can make it more clear - what I am saying - and what the majority of people believe (whether 10 people on a particular internet site agree or not) is that men and women are fundamentally different in some ways. A women slapping a man's arse is a different, a fundamentally different, thing to a man slapping a woman's arse.
It is quite frustrating that all I am saying is these simple and logical truths, and yet again and again I am given pedantic and legalistic arguments from people claiming this isnt true.

I am sure if we tried we could dredge up some case, out of context, where an insane woman shoved a broom up a man's arse or whatever - but the real world situation is that men are not sexually assaulted by women. Sex crimes are a disgraceful and disgusting stain on even the most civilised nations. Even in a superpower like the US 1 in 4 women in her life will be sexually assaulted by a male criminal. This is the real world. This is what actually goes on. And rather than face this reality we would rather talk about the out of control antics of some teenage girls in a care home.
At no point have I excused them, and at no point have I said what they did was right or ok. But to compare them, and the actions we have seen listed, to rape and rapists is utterly disraceful in my opinion. Rape destroys people's lives, and is one of the most wicked hate crimes that exist in society, and here we are saying it is the equivalent of a teenage girl slapping an old man on the bum?
We have lost our perspective if we allow ourselves to say such things - even if we make these claims (as I feel some people are doing) in the spirit of winning a logicla argument when they know in their hearts they are not true.
