I was very dismayed when I heard the news that Rolf Harris had been found guilty on all 12 charges and now faces a substantial jail term.

Sorry, but this just doesn’t add up.

It seems that the worst of it was a bit of groping, which really amounts to somewhat risqué activity, and nothing worse than that.

He apparently did it openly, and gained a reputation for it. Even though he was known as The Octopus as a result of this, he was generally not thought of as being a pervert or pedophile, nor anything of the sort.

It really could be, and I would strongly suggest should be, interpreted as nothing more than playful behaviour, if at times a little worrying for some young women.

Comparing him to the likes of pedophile priests or Jimmy Savile is like comparing a flea to a walrus.

I think Rolf has copped a very raw deal here.

Your thoughts……

Ludwig,
I think it's a crystal clear case of the true face of feminism in its whole glory. The girls just led him on until they realised money could be made by stitching a bloke up. I know ordinary blokes who are no different but their behaviour is tolerated because they have no fame nor money. Many feminists are just so callous & opportunistic.

Bet you two wouldnt be saying that if it was your daughters that he groped.

mikk,
my daughters would be telling him off & that'd be it ! (well, I don't have daughters) It's when kids were brought up in this warm'n fozzy PC world that they allow things like that to happen. You know, silly parents, even more silly kids.

individual,

"....The girls just led him on until they realised money could be made by stitching a bloke up...."

Bloody Hell!

We are talking about quite young girls here. Notwithstanding that Harris's "groping" appears to be at the lower end of this sort of scale - if he'd done it to me or my daughter, I would have been shocked.

Just where does any man (or woman) get off putting his hands in anyone's private places - especially in the circumstance of a first meeting?

How do you lead someone on when you're only just meeting them and find their hands caressing your buttocks?

Rolf always seemed to me warm and generous. My childhood is imbued with that. If I'd met him and he'd done that, I would have been very confused and upset...just like those girls...not knowing what to do about it.

That's why he got away with it for so long.
