In this country, we use nonce and paedo cu*t and this leaves no room for misinterpretation. This I hope answers vv’s question. I don’t think that really would be advised in social media of you don’t want to run the real risk of prosecution in this country.
Well no. You have to be very careful what you say in public in countries like the UK, still more what you post publicly on social media.
