When cherry's are red the ripe for plucking, when girls are 16...

You get the rest.

Jimmy Savile and Trump are cut from the same cloth. The fact other people were doing it too doesn't make their behaviour less abhorrent, it just means that abhorrent behaviour was more common.

I’m with you until this:

The fact other people were doing it too doesn't make their behaviour less abhorrent, it just means that abhorrent behaviour was more common.

Did something I posted indicate I think otherwise or was this just an additional thought?

For the record, I don’t care who the paedophile is, it’s disgusting and perverse regardless. I do question whether the behavior was more common or if it’s just gotten pushed further out of public view because of social norms changing.

was this just an additional though

This. Sorry if I made you think I thought you thought otherwise.

All good, that’s why I checked.
