Just because someone gets into puberty early does not mean they're ready for it mentally. Just because someone is physically ready for it does not mean it won't be harmful mentally - take this from someone who had sex first time at 13, had been having my period regularly for 2 years by then but that does not mean I was ready for sex.

I guess thats where we disagree. People have the right to wear whatever they like, its still risky behaviour to go off on your own at night when you're 14...
EDIT: I don't really mean on a bus, tbh I don't see that people should worry about being alone on the bus, I'm curious how much the council will get sued for for not having CCTV on public transport tbh; I'm speaking more in the broader sense that whenever anyone suggests that there are things you can do to lower the chances of being assaulted, they are branded a rape supporter...
You quote me and ask why is it not when the reason is there in the text.. If equal opportunity is available at 15:00 in the day as opposed to at 22:30, you don't think people would use that opportunity just as they would at 22:30? Just because it could correlate with time does not mean it's tied to time.

So time of day *is* a factor then? Of course I'm not saying its the only factor There being two rapists on the bus is the the factor that resulted in there being a rape in this incident of a young girl being on her own at night time. I'm not suggesting that young girls alone at night time get raped for being on thier own at night time.
You are saying that rape is a crime of opportunity?

What about night that makes it riskier?

Than how is it risky behavior?

Cognitive thought doesn't reach Formal operational stage until age 12-13. You are missing puberty and hitting lack of cognitive thought. It's not 'squicky', but disturbing.
