From what I understand reading this thread, OP has a record for showing his junk in public... now I’m not saying it’s okay to be doing this, but it’s not like he actually assaulted or raped anyone either. I’ve seen unsolicited junk before (both male and female), and I’m still here and it hasn’t affected my life in any way; I just laughed it off and forgot about it 5 minutes later. I really don’t think this “crime” warrants a lifelong record, unless the offence was repeated multiple times.


You have to remember this was a crime where the victim was a child. Adults, especially men will have a much different perspective on this. If someone did this to my teenage daughter you better believe I won't be so passive about it.


How old were those children ? There is a difference between a 5 year-old child and a 16 year old “child”.


If you want to walk that line ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


You suffer from reading comprehension failure or you replied to a different comment than the one you think you are replying to.
