Girls get trauma. Boys get context

"criminalising these children unnecessarily" they commited a crime mate i dont know what else would make criminalizing necessary.

And people say "there's no rape culture". This is what that means. The fact that we have literal kids doing this tells you how fundamentally broken society is. In a sane world, that judge would be stripped of their position, that's a start.

Apply the “sudden nuance” to republicans too. It’s all the vitriol possible for those they deem as “the enemy” but the second they get the it thrown back at them it’s “Hey! Come on now, consider this”. Every. Damn. Time.

It's wild how comments are already calling this a "gender war" video. It isn't stoking gender war when a video points out how a literal system is demonstrated to favor one over the other. That is quite literally systemic sexism.

This is such an obviously real issue that hurts real women. If you think it's not, you're telling on yourself in the worst ways.

Boys convicted of rape get non-custodial sentences as judge says they should not be criminalised unnecessarily | The Guardian

Boys physically overpowered and then filmed attacks on teenage victims in separate incidents in Hampshire

They were convicted of rape even in circumstances where they aided and abetted another boy to carry out an attack.

Judge Nicholas Rowland told them: “None of you need to go to prison today.” Explaining his sentence, he said he wanted to support the boys’ reintegration into society, adding: “I should avoid criminalising these children unnecessarily.”

“I think of you as very young and none of you have been in any big trouble before,” he said. “You have all done very well with the restrictions put in place throughout the trial.”

Southampton crown court was told that in January 2025, the 14-year-old girl had been threatened with a knife after becoming separated from her friends.

Forced to leave her mobile phone and AirTag in a shop so her movements could not be tracked, she was made to walk to a secluded field, where she was raped by two of the defendants as they filmed the incident.

And yet the government keeps acting like trans people in public toilets is the biggest threat to young girls

The worst part is is the rapists will still live in the same communities as their victims. And they will target them for retribution and will revictimize the girls and their families. They got a slap on the wrist when they should be spending 15-20 in juvenile detention followed by prison. 

Yes heard of this case and as shocking the outcome of the verdict FROM THE COURTROOMS, i am absolutely not surprised!

"Women are afraid that men will kill them, Men are afraid that women will embarrass them". This is the world we live in.

Some good news, apparently higher ups in the UK govt are looking into this thanks to widespread public outcry. Hopefully results in a different sentence for the perpetrators and a dismissal of the judge.

Chemically castrated and they pay for the girl's therapy for the rest of her life - thats the minimum.
However if rape were death penalty or 30 yrs, I think we'd see a lot less of it.
