I haven't seen/read any of those stories Clodfobble, but it's cetainly true that sort of thing has gone on before in both the Western and Eastern hemispheres. I imagine that it'd be incredible difficult to prove/disprove this sort of thing too. My opinion is that the aesthetics of the more 'mature' gymnast outdoes a child everytime anyway - maybe the age limit should be raised further with the added benefit that the pervs (no names!) would be able to enjoy the sport in safety!
