Were the teacher male, would the sentence be the same?

My Favorite:

In auto racing there are two types of suspension, coil overs and air bags.
The guys who use coil overs usually have bumper stickers that say:
Bags are for groceries and ugly women
My guess is the student didn't have coil overs

Should be the same punishment for both.

[BigBluePappy]

Should be the same punishment for both.

But it is not.
In all seriousness she breached the trust of the public and should service the same penalty as a male teacher.
JMHO

[Darrell KSR]

My opinion too, Pappy.

[jazyd]

its called rape, and that isn't even counting the illegal drugs in her home. Plus they boy must have been hard up, she is ugly.

A man does it, goes to jail a long time for rape

You think a male teacher has sex with a student gets 90 days? As you say, punishment should be the same. AND I DID NOTE YOU SAID SHOULD!!

GA legal consent is 16 so it wasnt rape. Of course the illegal drugs is a factor. But i chuckled at the placing the blame on him part

"what will it take to put you into this Sedan today, Mrs. Robinson?"

[CitizenBBN]

Depends. Is she pretty? ;)

Seriously, I think most everyone would agree it should be the same, and that it's probably, if we did the research, very far from equal.

Also the sentences for these things seem to be all over the place, varying by state of course but just in general. If the relationship was consensual even if inappropriate, and both parties were above the age of consent, then that's one penalty. Then it goes up from there, but it seems to be all over the map in the very few such cases I ever stop to read about.

The article did say this was the 4th teacher from this school to be charged in something like a year. Must be one interesting school.

This one, female, got 90 days jail and 2 years probation for delinquency of a minor, b/c the boy was 16 and at age of consent.

These women know they can get a huge array of men to have sex with them without risking their futures and careers for a kid they teach, right?

[BigBluePappy]

Boy, there is a headline I did not -well yes I did expect to see, but am a little shocked to see it nonetheless...

Is it just me and the country has no morals at all, or am I just that cranky old fart that yells GET OFF MY YARD to every one in the neighborhood?
I pray for this country daily.

I think they know they're doing wrong, and that what drives them. Bad Teacher and all.

Agreed. They definitely fit a personality type. Some of it is the "bad" thing, but I think some of it is the youth thing too, and the security of being older and more mature and thus more in control. Definitely a psychology to it.
