Woman avoids jail after sex with boy

reply to post by GioTheGreek

There's no doubt a 14 yr old boy would love to dip his fingers into something older... The problem here is her wanting and HAVING him. He's too young. She's a paedo thru and thru, end of story.

That's a very cruel paradox. At same time that society bashes this woman, raises this kid to a male legendary condition.

You got me thinking alittle bit there. I would have no problem with it if it was of her own free will. When I was 14, I was fully and totally capable of making decisions for myself. I'm not a girl tho so I do not know what the mind of a 14 year old girl is like so my choice to be fine with it could be wrong. I guess it all depends on the girl's maturity level. If she was manipulated into the situation then I would have a big problem with it.

I'm just tired of people being prosecuted for close age relationships. It happend someone I know. The girl was 14 and she actually led my friend into it. She knew what she wanted, she was not a victim. As soon as her family found out they turned her into a victim and she even started beliving that she was a victim by the time they were done with her.

If you don't want your daughter looking for attention in the wrong places, then give her the fatherly attention she so despertley wants and needs. I notice this with so many girls. They are attention starved because they do not get enough at home so they turn to their boyfirends. And where fatherly attention is not possible, mabey she can hang out with another family member or friend more.

All the more reason these women should be classified as sexual predators!
They are using the child and luring him in because of his desires, which are still those OF A CHILD.

Just because a child wants something in no way makes it right.

She should be held to the same standards as the men who lure a young girl because of her desire to be loved.

As much as it should be otherwise, women are not held to the same standards that men are. They are held to the standards of children, children that are not expected to be responsible for their actions, children that are driven by 'passion' in this case. It's just proof that equal rights does not mean equal responsibility.

I was not there, I did not hear the evidence presented, and I know nothing of either the guy or the woman concerned, or the circumstances leading up to the whole thing.

Do you ?

It would be presumptuous to argue with the verdict, and the sentence, unless you have some personal knowledge of the case.

Weird, isn't it?

Women who sleep with lots of men are called sluts, while men who sleep with lots of women are heroes...

when I was 17, my girlfriend was 14 and we were having sex. granted I wasnt 20, and we were both in high school, but she sure as hell knew what she wanted and what she was doing (in terms of wanting to have sex, not being good at it).

so does that make me a pedo?

I think probation is fair, and the only thing I see really wrong is her position of authoritah

I too know of men who have had relationships with someone younger than them and been jailed for it. It is a harsh reality that people need to learn. Sex with children is against the law. It is not a new law, it is something we all know. It should be handled the same way regardless of the sex of the law breaker.

But 14, no matter what excuses we make is still 14. That is to young for anyone male or female to be making decisions for themselves that could ultimately lead to a life changing event, that they could not handle. Like producing a child.

I understand sex is fantastic but when you have it with a child, you are a pedofile. End of story in my book.

What's there to know? The 'guy' as you call the child is 14, the woman is over the age of 18, therefore she is guilty of statutory rape in the letter of the law. The judge decided to ignore the law. Something he wouldn't have done if the genders were reversed.

So because she may or may not look good is even an issue? Serious?

Look at the female pedophiles, and the sentences they receive. The uglier they are, the more time they do. The 'hot' ones get off pretty much scott free.

The only female pedo I know of personally is the one I mentioned earlier. She is well over 270lbs and only got 4 years probation.

I don't think so. It seems to come down to whether or not people think that a 14 year old is capable of making their own decisions or not. I think they are, well from personal experience back when, I know they are.

I guess 14 and 20 isnt that bad...

I take everything back. Let em party!

Maybe once someone is a teenager they should not be called a child anymore... Could that be part of the problem. People keep saying the 14 year old child lol A 14 year old is not a child anyomre no matter how much you want them to be.

The Judge DID find her guilty.

But the Judge also no doubt took into consideration a whole lot more when passing sentence. Justice is supposed to be blind, but there is also something called mercy.

Just remember, that judge probably has many many years, even decades listening to cases unfold before him. He hears and understands a very great deal.

Yet people here are screaming "crucify" her, without knowing anything at all about the circumstances.

The law makes no provision for the obvious psychological differences between male and female. While sex with an older man would be traumatic for a young girl, sex with an older female is the stuff of dreams for most young boys.

This is the whole point. Most of judges are male, mainly in nations of third world. The social standard of Western world, concerning the maleness formation of a man, includes early sexual initiation. Period. A 14 years old kid that has sex with a 30 old woman, reaches:

- Respect
- Reputation
- Acceptation
- Leadership

Definitely isn't the same thing about a girl having sex with an older man. The future woman inside this girl is destroyed before raise. In the first case, the future man inside this boy, was built in a legendary situation dreamed by every single man alive.

Different parameters must have different legal approaching.

I respectfully bow out of this thread. You make a good point, however as I tend to disagree with you I will back off.

I have made my views in this matter clear as have you. Thank you for your honesty.

And for not bashing me.

...you know tasmanian law, huh?... cool... please, state the laws that (1) dictate age of majority and (2) what constitutes statutory rape... thx...

Yes EXACTLY Uncalien.
The law is blind, in that it judges guilt or innocence without (sexual) bias.

But sentencing should reflect the seriousness of the actual crime, taking into account all the factors of the specific case.

This is ALWAYS done.
A first conviction for anything usually leads to a very light sentence.
If you are back before the Judge for committing the exact same crime the tenth time, he is not going to be in a very lenient mood.

People are so uptight anymore. Relax; it's just sex. I've a feeling that many people are upset over this situation because they weren't getting any action at 14 (Sorry, control-freaks, this young man is obviously not a child anymore). "This woman should be locked up for life!" -WTF? really? You people really prefer old, saggy, hairy nuts and vagina's so loose and worn out that you might find dead canaries in them? The beauty and eroticism of youth has inspired some of the greatest works of human history; Romeo and Juliet, Michelangelo's 'David,' Leonardo da Vinci, etc. Lighten up- so long as sex is safe and consensual, it is something that was designed to be healthy and enjoyable, contrary to popular opinion. Jesus Christ, if you raise your children to make confident, informed and intelligent decisions, then you won't need to worry about them being manipulated by others. Stop playing the 'Burn-the-Witches' card.
