Two Men Jailed for Sexual Ratings

Their racy Facebook page was deemed criminal in Australia

Two men who erected a Facebook page which allowed users to rate the sexual prowess of women have been jailed.

The page in question was called "Bendaz Root Rate". "Bendaz" is a proper noun and "root" is, in Australia, a slang term a little coarser than "shag" is the UK, but still a fair way short of the F-word.

The two men in question lived in the Victorian town of Bendigo, population 90,000, and created the page after seeing similar efforts for other towns. They ran afoul of authorities after the page was noticed and its contents found to contain derogatory – and worse – commentary that even mentioned people well below the age of consent.
