I read in the paper to-day [now yesterday] about the British man who has been put on trial in Singapore for pinching a girls’ bottom in a club, He faces a £6.000 fine , two years in jail or a lashing if found guilty, It all seems a bit harsh or is it? Maybe we in the |west are a bit too lax, I don’t know, but I pose the question, would any of you ladies feel so outraged if a man did this to you, or would you consider it a compliment.?
On a lighter note I’ve put up some photos I took on my dog walk yesterday
This the view towards the East from Barton on Sea
This path is officially closed due to cliff erosion
I was playing with the settings when I spotted the glider coming along
Here he comes
Doesn’t it look so peaceful! it was a beautiful day, I did envy him
Up, Up and away
Not long after he was joined by another glider, but they stayed well out of range.

Awesome photos, Arlene.
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos, Arlene. That man's behavior is considered sexual assault here. It happened to one of Laura's friends last year at a local festival. It earned the man a year in jail, suspended on condition of good behavior for a year, ordered to register as a sex offender and assessed a $1500 fine plus court costs. He came off lucky because that kind of behavior could have got him shot.
ReplyDeleteThank you Horst, praise indeed from a pro ;-)
ReplyDeleteCrikey Chip, I wasn't aware that that sort of behaviour was taken so seriously anywhere apart from the Middle Eastern countries, perhaps it's because I'm just a tad too old to have it happen to me anyhow, LOL, I'd be flattered.
It would depend on who was doing the pinching, Arlene...only a handful of men (Robert included...of course!) would be allowed to...anyone else would get a slap!!!
ReplyDeleteGreat photos Arlene!!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely sexual assault here in America. It could have far reaching consequences.
I'm hoping fingers crossed to come over to America for a holiday next year, so I won't need to worry about anyone pinching my bottom, I don't know whether to be relieved or disappointed on that one, maybe I've got a bit of a loose woman in e LOL
ReplyDeleteGreat shots Arlene looks like a lovely warm day .Yes the sentence was a bit harsh on the other hand he shouldn't go around pinching ladies bottoms. LOL XXX
