Woman jailed for sex with 12 year old boy

Our responsibility as adults is not to exploit that. She is still a paedophile, but because (like you say) it's perceived that the males of the species are more "in control", it isn't reported in the same way as if a 12 year old girl had begged a 36 year old man to take her to bed, for example.

As for the point about harrassment at work, not sure I agree entirely. I have never 'reported' anyone for harrassment, but have been (and possibly am being) subject to it, as most girlies on here probably have. Unless it becomes physical, I am also usually able to handle it.

Yep, exactly, she is a paedophile, but is is interesting why it is perceived differently and in this case some people can find it slightly amusing.

Its like the drowning in a barrel of whiskey joke where the person got out 10 times to go for a piss.

(first time I've heard that joke)

I've vague recollections about 3 blokes in a boat floating on a sea of alcohol, but that's all I can remember about that joke. It's the way I tell 'em.
