Does anyone else feel like if the genders were reversed, the punishment would have been prison for life?

Maybe not prison for life but definitely far more harsher that is for certain.

This is an injustice. That woman is a sexual predator.

[WhiteBoyChill]

The fact that they didn’t even call the incident rape tells you everything you need to know. They just “had sex” guys

[Effably]

It is always awkward when they keep calling raping a minor lesser crimes.

Likely the punishment would have been a out 12 years or so. Which I believe is roughly the average. But really my insight into the U. S legal system is flawed so might be off the mark.

But sure, 60 days for raping a kid is a slap in the face to the whole concept of laws.

Not just raping a kid but reproducing with him from the sound of things. Imagine how both children in this matter will grow up? Something tells me the teacher goes back to work and the 13 year old owes her child support, because that is the male experience in America.

Of course. Earlier this year in Clovis a woman teacher was convicted of something similar with a student and she got NO jail time at all, just one year of wearing an ankle monitor. This is just another area where there is great inequality under the law and women NEVER do anything to get equality in any area that doesn't benefit them.

We are indeed, be it with some physical evidence, inferring motives here. That as an adult she had the ability and power to say no, and that as a boy he too could have said no, but almost certainly wouldn't have.

Therefore we assume it was fully consensual, which is the key difference not usually assumed were the genders reversed.

Man does it = Raped

Woman does it = Had Sex

That's the misandry we have in U. S. laws. when it comes to incidents like this.

Men have the privilege to get harsher sentences for commuting the same crime in other categories as well; I’m loving that male privilege on display here.

[TitsMcGee16]

Yup, double standards are real and prevalent today. So many women get away with it. Can you imagine a man having a child with a 13 year old girl. An NBA player had a baby with a 10 year old girl and they never talked about it in the media because of black privilege.

Most likely! My brother got arrested for 'child abuse" simply because the kids in the house where he was staying accidentally saw his naked ass one morning as he was bending over to pull up his pants!!

[Drumlin2001]

Most certainly would have been a longer sentence. The media coverage would almost certainly have been harsher too, phrases like Paedophile and rape much more prominent

In Florida many years back a female teacher had on going sex with a student she was found guilty, but judge said she was too pretty to go to prison what happen to justice so if you are rich or pretty then you can get away with any thing

[FilmGuy93]

I don't "feel" like it lmao I know it. Pedophilia between the genders is the biggest double standard there is.

[mr4435669]

That news is seen every day in the United States.

[Surely]

Probably you are correct on the more severe punishment!

[jimmy2]

She had sex with a child she should have went to jail birth the child there then lose the child till you get out

Absolutely!

"Teacher has sex with 13 year old boy" won't even call it what it is (rape)

[OlderAndWiser]

Absolutely!
