Abuse allegations and gender double standards

Don't have time to write much  right now, but I really wanted to share this post









Here's my re-write on what I posted

(QUOTE)

Twenty-four male graduates from Kamehameha Schools and two from other schools allege in a lawsuit filed today that they were systematically sexually abused and prescribed inappropriate prescription drugs as children by the head of Kamehameha’s department of psychiatry, who later shot himself to death in 1991 when confronted by the allegations.

(UNQUOTE)

Notice that when Bill Cosby's victims finally went public, people ask "why did you wait so long?" But when male victims of molestation wait decades to go public, there isn't much questions of "why did you wait so long?"

Gender double standards, anyone?
