Would you, a girl, cheat on your boyfriend if you knew you could get away with it and the desire was that intense? Would you refuse to go out and earn a wage if you could live off a man's work? Would you, a childless woman, demand that an ex-husband whom you'd tired of and left, keep you in the lifestyle you'd become accustomed to? If you could get away with it? Knowing a girl.
Would you, a boy, enjoy getting paid for work you don't do if you could get away with it? In uniform this time, would you a working-class squaddie vent your anger on a civilian you'd got hold of rather than the enemy you could not get hold of - if you could completely get away with it? Knowing a boy.
It's not only what you do that's the issue. It's not that. It is what you would do were the circumstances to allow you to get away with it, isn't it. Know Yourself.
The point is this - there are some who would not, even if they could get away with it. They know ethics and they have self-respect.
