If he's broken no laws and not disturbed anybody (apart from the minds of prudes) then why is he being harassed. The women that he beds are all willing participants, he is not even preying on women, they want to be with him FFS. Maybe if he moved to another island and started murdering the women the police would then leave him alone.

Some girls and boys too love a bit of rough with a tatty old bit, primitive urges surge to the top to have Viking style romance and a gay old time at times too. P S. Remember the word ''CAVE'' in Latin (learned at school) now all but forgotten means..... Cavē “beware you” (the singular imperative of caveō) + canem (the accusative singular of canis (“dog”)). Literally meaning: "beware the dog" Who or what the dog may be in those troglodyte trysts is of course open to discussion.

When did Latin acquire macrons? It didn't have them when I was a schoolboy.

I would suggest that you ask the folk at en.wiktionary.org/wiki/cave_canem that question. Or peruse the quote below. You sure you were actually a schoolboy ? 'Twould seem a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. Pompeii mosaic bearing the warning "cave canem"

When did Latin acquire macrons? It didn't have them when I was a schoolboy. That's because the school kids liked to eat them. BTW Latin inherited macrons from the Greeks "A macron (/ˈmækrɒn, ˈmeɪ-/) is a diacritical mark: it is a straight bar (¯) placed above a letter, usually a vowel. Its name derives from Greek μακρόν (makrón), meaning 'long', since it was originally used to mark long or heavy syllables in Greco-Roman metrics. Syllable weight In Greco-Roman metrics and in the description of the metrics of other literatures, the macron was introduced and is still widely used to mark a long (heavy) syllable. Even relatively recent classical Greek and Latin dictionaries[1] are still concerned with indicating only the length (weight) of syllables; that is why most still do not indicate the length of vowels in syllables that are otherwise metrically determined. Many textbooks about Ancient Rome and Greece use the macron even if it was not actually used at that time." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macron_(diacritic)

It's only when you get "my cat's breath smells like J's" that you should be more careful where you hide the bottle
