Tbf, that was his defense, not what the judge said. Still not sure it should be reported verbatim though

The only reason he got his cock out is because he enjoyed doing so.

Yy to many creepy men (NAMALT) hiding behind psycho-babble.

But his dad had died he had to wank at a woman and teenage girl Sad

Why Does He Do That by Lundy Bancroft, a study of abusive men based on a long career of treating them: Bancroft discusses how effectively many of his male clients (many of whom have convictions or are serving sentences for sexual/violent offending) have learned to say the psycho babble phrases to excuse their behaviour and avoid taking responsibility for it.

Yes, women, can't you PLEASE help this poor man with his poor sad cock?

Help for what?

He could have just got his cock out at a group of lads outside the pub and he would have been arrested.

But of course his cry for help involved intimidating and scaring women Hmm

A "Cry For Help"

I'll remember that next time I need assistance Primark finding straight jeans.

TheCountessofFitzdotterel · 18/12/2019 18:28

If it was a cry for help that's all the more reason we should keep reporting and the police need to take it seriously, because clearly these poor men aren't getting the help they need...Crown Hmm

He followed them in his van, that's extra awful.

Still good that he got done, this behaviour is very common and certainly never (rarely) reported when I was young. We see encouraged to 'laugh it off'. :/

Ugh.
