And not a Single mention of boys (BBC Article on child sex exploitation)

Actually I'm confused by the relevance of this post. It sepcifically mentions children and child all of the time apart from two examples which happen to be girls. Now the reason for the Rochdale example is because it was a massiv thing here in the UK and well known. As for including another example of a girl, it may just have been easier for the reporter to use those facts as they were more readily available. I felt as I read through the article that the reporter used very gender neutral phrasing throughout with the exception of those aformentioned examples.

It has very little mention of girls either. The whole article was just very gender-neutral.

That's not true, boys are mentioned too. But only the rapist ones.

I see it as another paedohysteria article. Adding boys to the overinflated abuse figures will do no good. It will only multiply overinflated figures by two. If paedohysteria is allowed to go on (with the help of some section of the MRM, alas), there will come a time where everyone around claims to have been abused. Everyone will then be able to sue everyone else for damages.

This article is totally gender-neutral and actually includes this line

She cautioned the "model" of Asian men preying on white girls was just one of "a number of models".

which actively discourages people thinking that all sexual abuse is of a certain kind.
