While I don’t like to play “blame the victim” (and I certainly think the guy should be locked up if he’s guilty), one wonders just how stupid a person has to be to allow a total stranger who knocks on your door and offers to give a breast exam to actually do it. :rolleyes:

**Zev** , the worst thing IMO is they were _young_! In their 30’s! An age that’s supposed to be before the senility of old age yet past the naivete of youth. People in their 30’s are often Internet-savvy and world savvy. Obviously YMMV.
