They definitely did a job to erase this from history, if not for a Jack The Ripper fascination I'd never known of The Cleveland Street Scandal. Well researched video Good Sir !!
"well researched video" ??? Look up the Wikipedia article about Cleveland Street Scandal ... For large parts, the video's comments copy-paste it word-by-word
Nothing seems to have changed over the years then, with this section of society. So many dodgy accusations to be coincidence methinks and all quietly covered up.
Abroad was the solution for many gay men in the U.K., especially after the Oscar Wilde persecution. Imagine having to endure the discomforts of Paris or the Riviera instead of the manly damp and chill of Britain. I know all of them missed boiled beef and cabbage when they were sitting at a table graced with vintage wines as they dipped their spoon into a bowl of Vichyssoise. Or worse, their dismay of plunging into an Ile Flottant instead of a forking over a slab of fried bread dipped in lard and drizzled with treacle. France must have been Hell. And the boys paid the price.
So the victims paid the price. How depressingly unsurprising.
"...he would remain unmolested by the authorities." It would be nice if said authorities had offered the boys the same courtesy.
Another British establishment Pedrophile ring

Another interesting scandal, thank you.

Big nobs with small nobs {so to speak}
Absolutely fascinating ❤️

Thanks for that, interesting
A Good Presentation on this Issue 👋

Do you think it didn’t happen in all sections of society.?
I guess no one cared about the age of those boys.
