Where to even begin on this one? rolleyes.gif

Sarcasm and bad taste start here:
**********************************************

Is this what they mean when they say "Blondes have more fun"?

What does a defrocked teacher do next: Prostitute? Porn Star? Special Assistant to Bill Clinton?

Did she claim she was just tutoring the kid for his SexEd class?

Does he get an A for SexEd?

Does he at least get extra credit in his Biology Class?

Now he's ruined, he's already lovin' 'em and leavin' 'em( his last words to her: "We're through! I'm dating little Susy, you're going to jail!").

************************************************
Sarcasm and bad taste end

Seriously folks:

If the genders were reversed would the perp be walking on this one? I kind of doubt it!

Is this the kind of person you want teaching your kids about sex (or anything else)?

Two things:

If the roles were reversed, and she wasn't as attractive, would things be different,I think so.

Second...I don't blame the kid. She's one good looking woman.

No sane individual would blame a 14 year old, regardless of how young or old, or attractive or not the teacher was. The fact is that she was a teacher--the one individual we parents are supposed to be able to trust to be as protective and nurturing of our children as we ourselves are. This lady should have certainly have received as harsh a punishment as any male sexual predator, including imprisonment for a specific term without parole, in addition to the other punishments she received. Seriously, does our society really view the actions of a child molester differently depending on the gender of the perpetrator?

The peculiar evil of silencing the expression of an opinion is, that it is robbing the human race; posterity as well as the existing generation; those who dissent from the opinion, still more than those who hold it. If the opinion is right, they are deprived of the opportunity of exchanging error for truth: if wrong, they lose, what is almost as great a benefit, the clearer perception and livelier impression of truth, produced by its collision with error. ~John Stuart Mill, On Liberty, 1859

Education: that which reveals to the wise, and conceals from the stupid, the vast limits of their knowledge.
~Mark Twain

Yes, our society does view the actions of a child molester differently based on gender. Just look at the disparity in sentences that are handed out.

Of course they do. The whole "hot mom next door" fantasy just doesn't work as well as the"hot dad next door".

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying it's any better. But society has different rules for boys than it does for girls, at least in the teen years. Teenage girls aren't supposed to be sexually active, but teenage boys are. Where teen girls are thought of as sluts and worse by their peers if they have sex, teen boys are encouraged and gain higher social status if they have sex.

The florida woman is a young and attractive woman. Should that matter? No. Does it? Yes.

We've grown to think of sexual predators in this society as older men praying on young girls, and boys on occasion. Young attractive women just don't fit that profile.

Think about it like this. If the child in this case had been a 14 year old girl, and the teacher was a man...the story would be playing out very differently. There probably wouldn't have even been plea agreements discussed.

Another thing...I've been reading the articles online about this case, and I really haven't heard anything about the boy being a victim. It's more like the teacher did something bad that she shouldn't have, but it wasn't so bad as to victimize the boy. If it had been a 14 year old girl, I'm sure we would have heard about the "victim" in this case.
