Girls are victims even when they commit crimes?

CJ writes "Here is a despicable article that clearly outlines a new standard of (in)justice, one applied to men, and another to women. The article (and study) is clearly sexist and feminist, it states that "because there is a zero tolerance for violence in the home, it's been criminalized across the board - But in a lot of the girls' cases these are social service problems, not problems solved by prosecutions.'' What is stated here is the complete opposite of the treatment men (boys) get is MA as set up by feminist jurisprudence. The article states that Girls who commit crimes should get "vehicles to be empowered to control their own destiny." This type of study is non-empirical, and always intends to offer girls less responsibility for their actions while maintaining more options for these girls to get out of any accountability. Please write the Boston Globe with disgust that they would publish this sexist garbage on the front page of their newspaper."
