It has some unintended and bizarre implications.
Take the scenario of some guy who goes out dancing, having a great time with their preferred sexual partner on the dance floor. On the way home stops in the park for a wank because they're single, young, drunk, horny and stupid.
They get caught, they're on the sex offenders register and they're banned from working with children or vulnerable people. And yet they're not more of a threat than the average person, certainly not a paedophile.
(If that looks suspiciously specific, it's not my story ๐)
Who can't make it home before having a wank? That seems like a whole different physiological issue.
It was a hypothetical example for purposes of illustration, not a suggestion for the weekend
Doesn't even need to be a wank. Just having a pee out in the open at a park is enough to get you on that registry.
