Let me explain this clearly:
Those of who insist that *sexual* activities between *consenting* adults "are no-one else's business" are all probably bothered by this news. But this news does not involve *consensual sex* between adults. It is not *consensual* role-playing--it is abuse.
Posting this news item as a contribution to this discussion is rather silly.
