Another teacher goes down. . . on a student.

Is one year really something people should be going to prison and having their lives ruined over?

"Ready" is subjective and individualistic.

I'm more concerned with the harm factor, and back to the original point....what is the actual harm in a 16 year old boy getting blown by his hot teacher?

Apparently one year is, but only when the other party is over 21 in New York. I agree that "ready" is subjective and individualistic but so is the actual harm to the 16 year old boy. Focusing only on boys is useless as well. Whatever age is selected must apply to boys and girls.

So, what is the actual harm in this situation?

If I was 37 and I eat out ur 16 year old daughter, this would be OK, right? You can't have it one way. The law must provide for equal treatment, which means if it OK for a 16 year old to get head from a 37 year old, then u must be fine for a 37 year old male to down go on a 16 year old chick.

It doesnt work like that at all, Bill.

Double standard? Yes, yes it is.

If you were 37 you'd realize that boys and girls are wired differently.

It does under the letter of the law.

I understand...but under the law you cannot discriminate against gender. Sorry.

[Kaneman]

Its a fair point, you can't write laws based on gender.
