Mixed messages......



You urge people to look at the above photo, and watch this video, and then read these quotes:

'I didn’t realise he was talking to me – it came as a complete shock because we were there as a group. Obviously I was flattered. But all the girls are gorgeous so I was really taken aback.'

Charlotte McCormack (Wales Online)

'Most girls would probably like Simon saying they were beautiful, but I hated it. I felt sick later. I wanted to get off the stage as quickly as possible.'


Charlotte McCormack (The Daily Mirror)

Did Charlotte McCormack blush with pleasure, lap up the compliment, and then realise what people might think and back track?

A young woman is in a night club, in a City centre, she is tipsy, she is having a great time. A man takes a shine to her, they flirt with each other, dancing, she rubs her body up against his, they embrace, their lips together. She leads him away, out of the club, in a taxi back to his flat, they have sex, and fall asleep.

She wakes up the next morning, confused, she doesn't want her boyfriend to find out, she can't bare to think what he would do. She leaves the flat, walks back to her house, crying on the way, she lets herself in and tells her boyfriend that a man has raped her.......

'Truth will ever be unpalatable to those who are determined not to relinquish error.'
