Interesting "development" but ohhhh so sad for the true victims of sexual assault who may now be tarred with the one brush and treated skeptically in future cases. The assault trend from 2016 is ascending, I would love to see a study of the nationalities of the accused/convicted. The huge increase in migration numbers may be an underlying cause? [NOT being parochial, of course, "born and bred Aussies" can and have carried out sexual assaults] ...

Excellent points, Mick.

The true victims of sexual assault are so often left terrified and a shell of their former selves, with many too afraid to seek justice, instead morphing into the shadows, which is extremely sad. Conversely, the faux "victims" are abusing the criminal justice system, and endlessly bellowing from the rooftops, attempting to validate a scenario that simply doesn't exist.

The second point is equally important, and a discussion that our woke society and political class refuse to have. It is impossible to solve a problem without acknowledging who the primary perpetrators are, and why they commit the crimes they do.

When it comes to some races within our society (not all), and their embedded cultural attitudes towards women, the cold hard truth is that rape and violence are tolerated behaviours within their respective societies. There are also indigenous elders that repeatedly try and alert mainstream society to the endemic levels of violence and rape of aboriginal women and girls.

So what does the media do to address these travesties? Ignore the facts while cultivating a feminist narrative that ALL white (predominantly Anglo-Saxon/European) heterosexual males are fundamentally evil, and a perennial threat to every female in society.

Empirically, it is an enormous distortion of the truth, and yet from a cultural perspective, it has escalated the propaganda to a level that is now profoundly divisive, and socially corrosive.

Of course there are white men who are represented in sexual assault data, as they should be if found genuinely guilty of a crime, but contextually, we need to be transparent about every segment of society if we truly aspire to modifying criminal behaviour.

Turning an entire segment of society into pariahs — namely white males — while venerating all others, is not a solution.
