Will all of the men here please raise their hands if they never groped a young lady during their informative years?Will all of the ladies here please raise their hands if they were never groped in their youth?
WE ALL DID IT.
Otherwise, none of us would have married.
Very few of us were virgins by the time we reached the honeymoon bed.
Now, hands up all of those people who are famous...
Gosh! We are so lucky. Operation Yewtree isn't really interested in us.
We wouldn't be of interest to the newspapers or TV.

Re: Sir Cliff Cleared of Historic Sex Offences
My memory has gone back to when I was 13, 14, 15.....My step-mother was a rather staid and upright woman.
OK, so she never went to church, but she made me go twice every Sunday.
She never told me the facts of life - I learned about that sort of stuff from my friends.
Every Sunday morning, she would read the News of the World from front to back, and then in reverse order.
She would read the stories of the vicar in Little Puddleton who 'took advantage of one of his parishioners', or the man in court who admitted to 'removing Miss Jenning's coat in the woods, despite her pleas not to.'
The paper was full of suggestive stories, and the readers loved them. That was the only reason the paper was successful.
The great British public love to read about seductions and affairs. We purse our lips and think that it is outrageous, but deep down, we wish it had been us...
I remember reading about Bill Clinton and Monicker Lewinski, and thinking to myself 'Lucky git!'.
