Lesbian woman demands double standard when she has sex with 15-year-old

Actually, the alleged victim was 14 at the time of the sexual activity.

Simple fact of the matter is that we have many laws in this country that depend on the age of the individual(s) involved. Any law that involves age is going to have to face the whole "it makes no sense that yesterday I couldn't do XYZ but today I can!" argument. Unfortunately, it just would not be possible to allow the law to assess each and every single individual's maturity. The law has to give a "line in the sand".

 

It is quite ironic she claims she was "targeted for her sexuality"...yes dear, pedophiles are targeted for their sexuality.....

 

14 is too young for 18 I think. I think a 3 year difference is enough.

 

That is so true. Making an issue out of a clear legal standard for heterosexuals and expecting an exemption because she is gay. There is the bridge too far.

 

Actually, cases are in fact addressed on a case by case basis all the time.

Scenario: John is driving a car, exceeding the speed limit, and hits a 12 year old girl, killing her instantly. That sounds really bad. But, the legalities will be handled differently depending on the circumstances.

Scenario 1: John is drunk, driving in the dark without his headlights on, 30 mph over the speed limit, runs a red light and mows down a 12 year old crossing in the cross walk who had a walk signal.

Scenario 2: John is driving down the street to his home, sober, and 2 mph over the speed limit, when a 12 year old darts out from in between 2 parked cars giving him only 0.5 seconds to react.

Both scenarios involve a speeding driver and a dead child. But they would be (or at least, I HOPE would be) treated very differently under the law.

 

Wasn't the mother of Jesus himself but 14 at the time of his birth?

 

Well, if you had paid better attention to what I have written on the topic, you'd already know the answer to your question. In the case of a mutually consensual pre-existing relationship, if it's legal when the older party is 17 years, 364 days, it ought to remain legal after the additional day (and more) has passed. Two immature people have sex all the time, though in this case we're talking about two females, so pregnancy is not a concern. Fortunately, over 60% of highschoolers who are having sex report using condoms. Unfortunately, that number should be much higher.

 

no we are asking high school students to be held to a different standard because they are both in high school. You are the only one bringing the gay part in.

 

I do think that there should be a wider range of sexual offences with a wider range of penalties; lumping sex with a 15 year old in the same category as sex with an 8 year old just doesn't make sense. Having said that, the law is the law and the accused has basically admitted she knew what the law was, so the fact there was no male appendage involved is immaterial to the illegality of the act.

She might have a point when it comes to determining the severity of the sentence for her crime but she definitely doesn't deserve a "get out of jail free" card for having a same-sex underage lover.

 

At my Prom we had 18 year old boys and girls going out with freshmen who were easily 14-15 and we call it love. When a 18 year old and a 15 year old fall in love when they're homosexual and we're quick to write the older one off as a pedophile? There is some serious double standards in this country. Or at the very least in this particular state.

 

Depends on where you're doing the kissing.

 

A 15 year old is not a child? Oh Ok. Why don't we just lower the legal age limit to 8 years old. Make things alot easier...hah.

 

Seems a common theme. Homosexuals demanding preferential treatment for no other reason than the fact that they are homosexual.

 

There's no rights like special rights.

 

Ok. So lets just tear up the constitution and replace it with a bible. No more laws designed to protect the people. You sure its going to work?

I bet Ubama would love you for this. He might even put you in charge. Way to go.

as posted previously. It was 14 and 18.

If I were the parents of the 14 year old and it was a heterosexual sexual act I would still be livid. I doubt that I would first call the police. I would ask the parents of the 18 year old and him/her to join all of us for a chat. There are huge developmental differences between an 18 year old and a 14 year old.

I found it humorous to hear kids I coached, when they were juniors and seniors start to point out how silly and immature the freshmen and sophomores acted. The same was said about them when they were underclassmen. My own kids noticed the differences as well.

Clearly the 18 year old is not emotionally developed on par with her peers and that is why she went for a 14 year old.

This is not a gay issue as the militant gay movement wants to portray it.

 

She is 18, the age of adult consent. So, yes, she is a lesbian woman sexual predator pervert. As is the case with ALL homosexuals.

 

So when she was 17 years 364 days old, she was not a predator?

 

You should really stop pointing the finger at our Founding Fathers. That was 200 years ago. As our country evolved so did our laws. As we grew so did crime. And we needed more laws to control crime. Back then our country was just starting out and crimes like this were not in mind.

Its just like when Ubama makes a mistake...all the lefties do is blame it on Bush. We are living in a different time period now...not 200 years ago.

 

Of course she is predator and a pervert. Now she can be charged as an adult. But, some softheaded morally vacent judge will let her off. Progressive leftist loserism sucks at all levels of society.

 

What the hell are you talking about?

 

And you should really learn how to read better because you are totally misinterpreting my position.

If anyone is like "Ubama" here it is you, with your disdain for the natural law and for the founding principles of this nation. I guess you think the passage of time somehow makes our founding principles less relevant. You sound like an "Ubama" supporter, not me.

 

This law is very stupid. 18 year old with 15 year old is fine and normal because of their near ages. Morally she did nothing wrong. Also, it may very well be true that she was targeted because of her sexual orientation and if this was heterosexual the parents would not press charges. I think Florida should have near-age exceptions, like many other states and countries have.

That said, it is also true that the law itself is not discriminatory based on sex and there is no double standard there.
