Well here's another example of a mature woman being caught and found guilty of having sex with an under age boy and getting a sentence that makes a mockery of the legal system.
When a male is convicted of the same offence, the book is pulled out, thrown and then the media come down like vultures, going for the pickings. But it appears that when a woman does the same thing, they get a slap on the wrist and asked to move on.
Boys and teenagers see that having an older woman is manly, cool etc and seen as acceptable, this is supported by society through the media supporting that view. The fact of the matter is that it is still illegal and therefore the same punishments metered out regardless of whether the victim is male or female.
Additionally, by having this "warped" view, what are we doing to the men of tomorrow ? What about the psychological damage being perpetrated on them ? Not only do these boys come away being scarred by the abuse, they (and others) are being told that it's ok, just go along with it, the law doesn't apply to you like it does females.
We constantly hear that girls mature faster than boys but yet when an adult takes their power as an adult and abuses a under age male, it's deemed to be less severe than if the victim was female. Go figure.
