Courts Go Easy on Women Who Commit Rape

The Courier-Mail carries this article on how "COURTS across the US are cracking down on women, especially teachers, who have sex with underage boys." Word is getting out that women are not the persecuted saints that feminists claim they are. I've often seen it stated that when adult women and boys have sex, the boys want it. Well... that is the nature of statutory rape -- an adult with a willing child or adolescent who, according to the law, can't give informed consent. This is the first time that I've seen it unequivocally pointed out that in cases of statutory rape of girls by men, the girl also wants it, though, according to law, she is too young to give informed consent.

The article also points out "...the courts are reluctant to punish women as harshly as men convicted of similar crimes. Whereas male abusers of girls routinely receive sentences of 15 to 20 years, women often avoid jail." The fact is sickening, but at least the word is getting out. It's incredible that these people still imagine that they're oppressed.
