That is the ACTUAL headline for the Teacher, Debra Lafave, who pleaded guilty to seducing a 14 year old boy. THE ACTUAL HEADLINE AND VERDICT!
Mason recently wrote an article about the unfairness of a sentence of a hit and run driver. Indeed, they got off relatively scott free. And Gideon (I think, please forgive me if I mis-attribute) recently wrote about the crime of the fact that some sex offenders get off easy!
And this is proof in the pudding! What? The Judge and DA thought she was hot? (She is cute, but not hot.)
Where is the outrage over this travesty? I mean this woman is a pedophile! No ifs ands or buts! And yet, because she is a woman, "ah, she did not mean anything by it!".
I guess you can see where I am going here. If not, let me drive my mack truck through it to make the view easier.
Why are we treating women different than men when both are slam dunk pedophiles? We are not talking forcible rape here for the women or the men (that is another issue). We are talking of a person in power taking advantage of a minor too young to make decisions for themselves yet (that is why they are minors).
Yet on the one hand, we basically condemn a man to death for it. And on the other, we say "Oh you Pretty thang, we will let it slide this time! Just dont do it again, honey".
Bull SHIT!
Pure and simple.
