It just paints the average man as some kind of beast who has to control himself constantly from raping women.

What I dond't understand is how the judge doesn't see him as a risk to women because he doesn't go "looking for women to rape". No he only rapes them if them come to him in his home. And there is absolutely no chance of that ever happening again is there?

the really horrible thing is that it's not some random Daily Mail reader saying those things. It's a fucking JUDGE. Is there no hope?

The could not resist comment is vile. It paints the woman as some seductive temptress... Even the headline irritates me. Why include "drunken?" Does the fact she was drunk mean she was partially to blame for him being a rapist?

What the actual fuck

Good character, not a classic rapist who will seek out strangers... Hmm Angry

He is a disgusting man, and I can't believe the judge is trying to make anyone feel sorry for him

There are no words. Thats really upset me, I feel really angry. That poor woman. If he had apologised. ...ffs.

"You simply could not resist"? Shock

And WTAF is a "classic rapist"? This is so depressing.

Oh and him being a man "of good character" what with his previous conviction for battery and all that. Hmm

Good grief. How dare she fall asleep on a sofa. That's really provocative behaviour. No wonder he couldn't help himself.
