Australian Court: Girls in "Skinny Jeans" can't be raped.

Ridiculous to the max.
 
This is mind numbingly offensive and stupid.
 
And the rest of the world calls Americans stupid.:lmao:
 
What....the....hell?!
 
Ha!

"Questioned by defense lawyer Paul Hogan"

I always wondered what he was up to these days... No wonder the guy got off, his lawyer is Crocodile Frikkin' Dundee!
 
"You call that questioning? Now here's some questioning"
 
It depends on what the victim's statement was I assume... If the victim makes a claim like "The defendent tore my wet, sprayed-on jeans off with one hand" and it becomes apparent that such an act is pretty much impossible... well, that could be grounds for reasonable doubt, and I don't think our courts would be alone in viewing it in that fashion.

Its why a victim's statement needs to be a measured account grounded in truth and far removed from hyperbole.

That article isn't saying "SKINNY JEANS = NO RAPE" its more saying that it brings doubt over the testimony... much like a lawyer would be sure to attempt to bring about doubt over witness testimony if someone said they recognised the accused by a split second glimpse in a dark environment.

Technically it could still be rape if her testimony was that they removed her pants and then she felt uncomfortable, told him to stop and he continued. Such a defence would then be moot.



THIS IS NOT LEGAL ADVICE.
 
Wow, so knife wielding rapists can't cut open the parts they need?
 
Pants go on? Then pants can come off...
 
As an Australian I just want to say, one stupid judge does not represent Australia, and to counter this thread with some horrible/stupid/messed up news from America, I post this:

A 72 Years old Ohio woman, Pearl Carter has declared to the world through the new idea website that she is in love with her 26 years old grandson and they both are having a baby.
I know i know you all are thinking it is gross, even i am thinking the same. But, the romantic pair really dont think this is odd in any way. Pearl says that she gave Phil's mom for adoption and she only met him in 2006. She says she was freaked out when she found herself thinking "what a handsome and sexy man Phil was" and than she read about Genetic Sexual Attraction and found out that her deep lovey dovey feeling "werent wrong". Phil who also is in love with her grandma says that these feeling which they have are OK. “I could be with Pearl and it was OK because she'd never raised me or been in my life,” he says.
Both of them agreed that they have sex three times in a week and since grandma cant concieve, they found a willing surrogate who for $54,000 will give birth to a baby using Phil's sperm.
 
Wow, you couldn't be anymore wrong, Superboy. No one (except for Scourge and Majic) is insulting Austrailia. You just want an excuse to post that article and insult Americans.

Btw, the stupidity and creepiness of some people don't surprise me, no matter what country. With that said, I've still heard worse in America.
