Search Results: rape victims

I was just reading this report about a former cheerleader in her 40s arrested for statutory r@pe of a 15 year old boy. I read the comments and while I understand that males and females have different sexual mindsets but I was just rolling my eyes on the typical double standards in the comments. All the men justifying it while a very few women are saying this a "mockery" to "real" r@pe victims. People were complaining how the teen boy was old enough to know better. Had the gender been reversed, EVEN IF the underaged teen girl clearly consented and knew better too, society would still want the grown man's head and hold him completely responsible.

There actually has been a few stories where under-aged teen girls lie about their real age to get knocked by a grown adult man (and then get them in legal trouble) but then again, it's not like anyone would ever believe that anyway because "females are always sexually innocent" in society's viewpoint.

Now back to my main question, America is supposed to be a country of equality and a haven for feminists (somewhat like Sweden) yet their law and society gives females special treatment and hold them less accountable for their own actions. Women are often given shorter incarceration sentences than men for the same exact felonies being committed. Gee, that sounds like such good justice system! *sarcasm*
I don't know if the American men are to blame for the gender double standards or the American women.
