He added: "It's the constant 'are you a true Scotsman?' - basically asking you if you're wearing underwear or not. If you reversed that behaviour and I was to say to a woman 'can I ask what you're wearing underneath your dress' it would be a whole different ball game."

"I used to tell my mum and dad - they would say it's just one of those things. But is it really? That was 1976 behaviour, it's not acceptable."

Not really for Laughing Lemons. If you were working in a Private Boarding school, Childrens Home, Orphanage etc in those days, providing it didn't involve actual sexual penetration, you got away with everything.

For every one brought to justice, I reckon there were/are hundreds or even thousands still out there. But all dead or retired.

I met a guy who went to a private school close to us in the 1970s, and sexual abuse was just an everyday occurrence. In those days, nobody worried about kids. A totally different world.
