In other words - how far should gender equality go? Al the way?
Perhaps all the way, but why do i have a bitter taste in my mouth in this case?
I reckon i wouldn't have such feeling for the male teacher abusing 16-17yo girls.
But somehow it looks way, waaaay over the top to send a 36yo woman for 30 years in prison for the same thing.
In my personal perspective, a male teacher having consensual sex with a 16yo girl should go to prison for 10-15 years.
A female teacher - 5-7 years maximum.
Where does my sense of justice mistake? Why does this situation ring my bells, even though i'm all pro gender equality?
What do you guys think about this?
