I understand that there are some women on the register.  Do we substitute polyfilla for castration in their case?

The concept of a sex offenders register was a step in the right direction but totally lost focus when purely technical offences were included regardless of their individual merits.

From that point on, every serious sex offender can claim circumstances conspired against him and as we all know, that may be true, it extends the typical benefit of the doubt to the major offenders.   Yet it tars the technical offender with the same stigma brush of the serial rapist.   The register has lost whatever impact it ever had and can be likened to motoring offences where in early days they were a disgrace to the whole family and nowadays when asked it you have a record these forms usually end with 'Except motoring offences' because everyone recognises they are trivial, but they do nevertheless hold the occasional 'Causing death by dangerous driving. ' blot. 

He can't have done much wrong if his time on the Register was only 18 months, Indecent Exposure can carry 10 years!

I feel that under the circumstances, he should have been given the opportunity to withdraw voluntarily before they grassed him up, it is not down to the police who serves a second punishment period or not. 

"I understand that there are some women on the register"----I bet there are many a school boy who would give a weeks paper round (are there still such things ?) money for their addresses .  eyes:

I bet they would!

Still it just goes to show the double standards doesn't it?

Any man who finds himself on the SO Register is an instant pariah whereas any woman becomes a magnet overnight.

One of the women concerned (I believe) was convicted for seducing an under-age boy!  I expect he's still on free burgers and cokes for the first hand story....  confused:

She could use it on her CV to get jobs with.  (except teacher obviously).

I haven't been following this story but after a quick trawl through the news on the internet I cannot find a mention that he was in breach of any conditions.

Also I doubt if the producers of the show had any entitlement to know if he was on a register.

Quote
A spokesman said he was placed on the sex offenders' register and given a two-year conditional discharge when he was sentenced at Preston Crown Court in December 2005.

No further details of the offence have been given.


We also don't know what his offence was.

I don't think we don't need a castration emoticon.   
apparently it was a tickling fetish.. honest! he was done for tickling a boys foot and there was some nudity involved.

Everyone knows that Superglue is only good at sticking together: fingers, eyelids and labia.

Use it on anything else and it falls apart three seconds after you turn away.

Unless the item to be glued was in contact with one of the three above, in which case half the item will fall off and you will need surgery to remove the remaining part.

Useless fact of the day #15363 Superglue was originally devised by an american company for battlefield medicine as a more compact form of dressing.

Ok back on subject, does anyone know what this guy's act actually was. If his entire act is something that was aimed at kids then surely the police would have been right to announce this as even if the guy hadnt won the competition the publicity would have most likely given him plenty of jobs where he would be entertaining children.
The universe is run by the complex interweaving of three elements. Energy, matter, and enlightened self-interest.

1) They glued my "wound" when I had the implant replaced. Makes a neater and quicker job than the stitches they used for the first one and there's no dicking about afterward getting the stitches removed.

2) I refer the honourable member to the reply I gave earlier. It is not the job of the police to inform on anyone. It is the job of the police to keep records and allow the CRB access to them. Anyone who is placing any adult in a position of influence over a minor or a vulnerable person has a duty to check with the CRB.

Superglue.

Well that would take care of the talking aspect I suppose.
