And I suppose one of the things when I when I think back on it, these were boys, they had absolutely no clue what they were doing, it was just pulling and grabbing and twisting and exposing. Q:How clear were you that there was a kind of sexual undertone or motive to all of this? A: It was definitely sexual. It was definitely sexual because it was all about those parts of your body. It felt like this kind of, this crescendo towards more explicit sexual acts and there were no consequences socially or kind of, within the sort of system we were in. You know, there was no calling out of or an attempt to kind of mitigate or look at that kind of behaviour.
