[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There is a bias because boys are much much much more likely to abuse kids. Not that your boys would but seriously why would someone take the chance? [/quote] [b]Girls are much much more likely to be mean bullies and abuse kids.[/b] I only hire teen babysitters whose families we personally know.[/quote] This is your opinion, not fact. The second part makes sense. Why would you hire someone to take care of your children you didn't know?[/quote] It’s a fact that a users are far more likely to be male (though of course most men and boys are not abusers!) in my opinion the risk isn’t worth it. [/quote] +1 It's the same reason you probably wouldn't open your door for a young black male but wouldn't hesitate for a little old lady. [/quote] No need for your racism here.[/quote] Not racist. This thread is stating that statistically men are more likely to abuse than women. In the same vein, young black men are more likely to commit a crime than a little old lady.[/quote] Young men are more likely to commit crimes. And if you’re white you are much more likely to be murdered or assaulted by a white person than you are a black person. Most crime is intraracial. So if you’re white (which I assume you are) you should be more cautious of young white men than young black men. [/quote] This is BS.[/quote]
