Kim, did you notice how Leon used the word breasts and not tits ? in that
case you should've used the word penis instead of the word cock...but I
think he's right, being attacked when walking to Perth central train station
at night has a factor increase if you're not of the male gender and you
have, erm, how can you say the word " breast" without offending anyone ????
would you prefer I reffered to them as mammaries (sp?)
I have often walked from St Georges Terrace to the train station at 22:50 to
get the 23:00 train home from work and unfortunately females are usually
chosen as targets, not males, don't ask me why 'cause I didn't do it.

Far out, lighten up...that was a generalisation.
Considering the people who hang around the train station, "vulnerable" would
be nearly any female, or, for that matter, anyone else who looks at someone
else sideways....

Sexism will never die when there are always extremists in some form or
another.
