While the poor Australian Aborigine was classed as a subhuman. Once when an early Spanish ship bumped into the West coast of Australia, the men caught a young girl. They examined her closely; not with the intention of raping her, but they were amazed she was the same as their own women, just a darker skin. They gave no thought to her feelings as they returned to their ship and sailed away.
