"I do not believe that in general terms sexual abuse is carried out irrespective of gender. "
Based on what evidence?
"by affording homosexuals and paedophiles a safe haven to commit crimes"
One is legal, the other is a crime except in your distorted mind.
Homeosexuals are in no need of a 'safe haven' - they are not criminals any more - we have moved out of the Stone Age (or some of us have).
