I think Cliff Richard behaved incorrectly in this matter, he is a celeb and has become a wealthy man through that celebrity status. Once in the public eye, you can expect a media circus if there is the potential for gossip. It goes with the territory.

I don't like him, he pretends to be something he is not. Does that make him guilty? No, but I have a feeling stuff will come pouring out once he is 6ft under.

More or less this.
I am not a fan either, however I don't blame him for suing for damages as it goes far against his clean and religious image.

Apparently the fact that one of his accusers is a rapist himself should go against the accuser or something. Rapists are clearly scum, but being a rapist does not mean that you could not be sexually abused as a child. The guy reckons its Cliffs fault for how he is today, which is also nonsensical to me tbh. If you were abused as a child, why would that make you in turn abuse others..bad excuse.

Never looked very far into this Cliff Richards thing. Have skim read a couple of threads about it all. But reading a bit more into it..does seem a bit dodgy even from the start

I thought 'the cycle of abuse' was a well established theory? Horrible as it sounds it was in a documentary into the Cromwell st murderers the wests that I first heard that and looked into it :(

It can happen.
But looking at it from another view, how many people that are sexually abused as a child never say a word to anybody, so not reported or taken into account statistically...yet they never go on to abuse.

Well of course not everyone will it depends on so many other factors, it would be impossible to pinpoint how or why some abused go on to abuse others. The sad fact is they do.

Being abused as a kid can actually be the driving force for your sexual preferences as an adult. It would make you numb to pain both for yourself and others....

With Cliff, I just don't know. He's always been very private, whether that's because he has anything to hide or just wants a private life remains to be seen I guess?

I don’t know either - but I do agree he is a private man and that may be all it is.
