| 2 | Former teacher impregnated by 13-year-old sentenced to 10 years in prisonI've got to say, I'm pleasantly surprised. I was sure she was going to get away with this. Glad she didn't. | /r/MensRights | 13/01/17 08:38 PM |
| 3 | Former middle school teacher impregnated by 13-year-old set for sentencingDeferred adjucation probation...so not only no jail time, she won't even have a criminal record. That's honestly disgusting. | /r/MensRights | 13/01/17 04:24 PM |
| 2 | Crown appeals sentence of house arrest for female teacher who sexually abused two boys, argues it "inadequately reflects the objectives of denunciation and deterrence"The judge ruled in this case that the mandatory minimum was illegal in general, not just in this particular case. Probably a large part of the motivation behind the appeal. | /r/MensRights | 10/01/17 11:49 PM |
| 2 | Crown appeals sentence of house arrest for female teacher who sexually abused two boys, argues it "inadequately reflects the objectives of denunciation and deterrence"Not that it makes it all that much better, but apparently the victims were former students, who were 15 and 17 at the time it occurred. | /r/MensRights | 10/01/17 11:22 PM |
| 2 | Ex-dinner lady who had sex with 14-year-old boy spared prison spell because it would have put her four children into foster careWasn't brought up in the article, but feminists have been arguing for ages that women should be given more lenient sentences than men for the same crime, especially when they are primary caregivers (as was the case here). They've even gotten it included in the official UK sentencing guidelines. | /r/PussyPass | 09/01/17 03:26 AM |
| 2 | Discussion: What should the Men's Rights Movement do next?The biggest problem we're facing is lack of exposure. A lot of our ideas are good and would be popular if presented fairly, but we simply don't have a platform to express them. We need to somehow get a platform for that, and when we do use it responsibly. No attacking "SJWs", fat-shaming, ranting against single mothers, transphobia, or any of that. Talk about popular issues that most people would agree need to be fixed - male-only draft, sentencing discrepancies, unfair treatment of male domesti… | /r/MensRights | 09/01/17 12:05 AM |
| 1 | Discussion: What should the Men's Rights Movement do next?I completely agree in that I think we should focus on children. Opposing women's issues, however dishonest they may be presented (wage gap, rape culture, etc), will only make us look bad. But when arguing to help men we often run into the empathy gap, in that people just don't care - which is why phrasing it as trying to help kids can be effective. When all you're doing is arguing that someone who raped a 12 year old shouldn't get probation it's hard for them to attack you and still pretend to b… | /r/MensRights | 08/01/17 11:51 PM |
| 3 | Ex-dinner lady who had sex with 14-year-old boy spared prison spell because it would have put her four children into foster careSo even if its legal to fuck someone 16 in some other country, you violate federal law because its 18 for U.S. government Sure, that's something the federal government is allowed to regulate because it involves interstate / international travel. If a state decides to make its age of consent 14, and someone in that state has sex with a 15 year old, the federal government cannot come in and arrest them for it. There is no federal law that was violated. | /r/MensRights | 08/01/17 11:38 PM |
| 6 | Ex-dinner lady who had sex with 14-year-old boy spared prison spell because it would have put her four children into foster careThe United States legal system is only allowed to make laws against certain types of crimes - terrorist attacks, treason, and interstate crimes, to name a few. Laws like statutory rape are defined and controlled entirely by individual states. A state could, if it wanted, decide not to have any statutory rape laws at all, and that would be perfectly fine. (As it stands now, every state has statutory rape laws with an age of consent between 16 and 18). | /r/MensRights | 08/01/17 09:27 PM |

| 10 | Woman forces boy to have sex with her by threatening to accuse him of rape if he refusedYou know, I've seen this sort of thing (woman forcing kid to have sex by threatening him with rape accusations) often enough that I can only wonder how frequently women do this to guys their own age, and it just never gets reported because no one cares. | /r/MensRights | 07/01/17 05:23 AM |
| 10 | Judge says teacher who molested 12 year old boy is a "pretty good person who did very bad things", sentences her to 2 years in prisonI don't think it was sarcastic. Just pointing out that courts should make sex abusers pay for their victim's therapy by default, so it shouldn't count as "bonus points" for her. | /r/MensRights | 28/10/16 09:25 PM |
| 3 | Teacher sentenced to 30 years for molesting a female student files appeal, says she wouldn't have been punished so harshly if her victim had been a boyShe got the absolute max. She was convicted on 2 charges punishable by 2-15 years each. Judge gave her 15 years for each and then stacked them on top of each other. | /r/MensRights | 28/10/16 03:46 PM |
| 35 | Judge says teacher who molested 12 year old boy is a "pretty good person who did very bad things", sentences her to 2 years in prisonI know. I don't know if you saw the other thread, about the teacher convicted of "sexual touching" (not even sex) with a 16 year old girl and got 30 years without parole. Teacher is arguing sentence wasn't fair because if she molested a boy the punishment would have been lighter. We just keep seeing more and more evidence that this is true. | /r/MensRights | 28/10/16 03:37 PM |
| 1 | Why hasn't there been a case in the US Supreme Court to over turn the decision regarding women not bound to ask for consent when performing abortion ?Because it would be bad press for the political party that did, likely. And frankly, I even agree with it. Your husband should have no say over what you do with your body. Some sort of "financial abortion" for men might be a better option, but no one will ever go for that either. | /r/MensRights | 18/10/16 03:31 PM |

| 1 | Australian state introduces mandatory jail for sex with child under 16. Women who almost always walk free for raping boys are finally being locked up.The US is hugely biased as well. I'd bet the only reason she got prison in the US is because it was classed as child sex tourism, which is a federal crime, and the Feds can't be too biased since there's mandatory minimums for everything. Most state cases still end in no jail time though :( | /r/MensRights | 12/10/16 03:53 PM |
| 8 | Australian state introduces mandatory jail for sex with child under 16. Women who almost always walk free for raping boys are finally being locked up.Canada had this awhile, and it was great - women actually were being punished for raping young boys. Then the liberals did away with it and now it's basically legal for women to rape again (although the men still go to prison). Hopefully they don't let women wiggle out of these sentences. Could be a very good thing if boys can actually feel safe coming forward knowing they will get justice. | /r/MensRights | 12/10/16 04:47 AM |
| 7 | Where is the outrage against Trump and all this "just locker room talk, it's just how men talk" nonsense for lumping all men together as a bunch of lecherous sexual predators?Trump is an asshole, everyone knows this. He also made a comment about a 14 year old boy who was sexually abused by an adult woman and how that probably gave him "confidence". I never understood how some people think he's a good thing for men's rights. Now whether he's worse than the left, that's another question entirely. | /r/MensRights | 12/10/16 04:44 AM |

Because it's hilarious when women rape boys, right?Except that Clinton has actually put forward a plan for "gender responsive sentencing" that would effectively ruin the (small) chance boy victims have of seeing their rapists punished.

| 1 | Woman originally facing 11 rape counts against a teenage boy pleads guilty to lesser charge of indecent liberties with a child, sentenced to 16 months in prisonIt says additional, and that her probation doesn't begin until she is released from prison.

| 1 | Woman who sexually abused teenage boys gets 14 months in prison after prosecutor argued that treating the crime as less severe because the offender is a woman "is an insult to her victims"No problem! I can't say much about this subreddit, as I'm not usually on it. I posted this story to mensrights and saw someone had posted it here as well so I came over to look. I don't doubt that most women, and most feminists, support equal sentencing. There is even evidence to show that, in countries like the US where jail for women is still allowed, an increase in the number of female prosecutors and judges is directly responsible for female sex offenders being treated more harshly.

| 3 | Woman who sexually abused teenage boys gets 14 months in prison after prosecutor argued that treating the crime as less severe because the offender is a woman "is an insult to her victims"The problem, unfortunately, is that her whole "incarceration isn't for me" argument only works because it's mirroring a common feminist argument that "incarceration isn't the solution for women". In the UK, this has resulted in the government slowly closing all women's prisons under feminist pressure, and now virtually every female sex offender walks free. In the US, Hillary Clinton has made similar promises should she become president. You can see people like Hillary Clinton and her counterpart… | /r/PussyPassDenied | 28/09/16 03:27 PM |

Source. Maybe she's not discriminating against boys, she's just a pedophile apologist. Who knows. I'm still going to be following this case so we can let the attorney general know that it needs to be appealed after the sentence is passed. Edit: Yeah.

| 2 | Female Babysitter, aged 21, spared jail after having sex with boy aged 11, when he had day off school.This is the tough part, though. What if they aren't a big threat to society? Whether or not these reports are correct, these types of abusers often are characterized as NOT being a high risk of reoffending, which is a huge part of the problem. For instance, most women that sexually abuse young boys are not found to be pedophiles at high risk of reoffending. Same for most college athletes that rape drunk or unconscious women.

| 3 | Female Babysitter, aged 21, spared jail after having sex with boy aged 11, when he had day off school.That said, I think sentencing as a whole needs to be reevaluated, and the prison system in general. But not in a gendered way. I agree with this. Ideally, I believe prison should only be for those who are a threat to society, and other punishments should be used for everyone else. But there do actually have to be punishments - probation, suspended sentences, a few hours of community service, just don't cut it for rape.

That said, saying "Poverty is sexist" is a bad idea, and not because I personally care one way or the other. But it just sounds ridiculous.

We did have the boy's voice. He said he didn't like it, felt uncomfortable, and had wanted it to stop. Hatt's response to the media a few days after being let off was something to the effect of "I know he said he didn't like it but he really did. he loves older girls" She also has been caught filming children on a bus recently.

NZ doesn't call it rape unless the victim is younger - for teenagers like this, the crime is the same. That said, I think a major problem is that it suggests this offense is less serious.

Not necessarily true. A big part of most justice systems is deterrence, as well as keeping dangerous individuals removed from society and getting justice for victims.

| 9 | Woman jailed for sexually abusing boy after judge says "gender is irrelevant" and he cannot lower the sentence just because the victim is a boyHe said she was ruled unlikely to reoffend, as pretty much all women are, which definitely played into her light sentence. I think by "deterrence" he meant of others. As in, if it becomes clear that we give suspended sentences every time this happens, female pedophiles will stop taking the law seriously and more kids will get hurt. So we have to send her to jail even though she's not really a danger to the public. A very good reason imo. | /r/MensRights | 12/09/16 07:25 PM |
| 2 | Woman who sexually assaulted 13 year old boy gets 25 years in prisonDefinitely. I looked into it a bit more, and this is from another article. This woman was really great. Whenever Mitchell's counsel countered the state's 25-year offer, Assistant District Attorney Kelley Crisp responded by saying, "I'm ready for trial." Though the male judge in this case is amazing too: "I could have stacked those two aggravated charges, and I probably would have done so if a jury had given you less than 25 years," Lockhart said. http://www.texarkanagazette.com/news/texarkana/st… | /r/MensRights | 11/09/16 11:01 PM |

Since you seem so concerned with evidence, do you have any evidence that gender makes a difference here? Every study I've ever seen shows otherwise. Where is the serious research that proves beyond any reasonable doubt that sex with an adult is damaging to a boy body and mind, but sex with a 16 yo is not?

| 1 | Woman who sexually assaulted 13 year old boy gets 25 years in prisonFrom 25 years to 2 years, you seem to "take away from the seriousness of the crime" more than me :) I guess I should clarify. My philosophy on sentencing is that lengthy prison sentences should be used only for those who are a danger to the public. Spending a few years in prison is still a pretty substantial punishment, and is enough to both deter the crime and let the victim feel they've gotten justice.

Typically these kinds of articles end with "but the judge retained jurisdiction to re-sentence her in 6 months if she behaves" or "with the last 24 years suspended", but it doesn't seem like there's any sort of catch here.

The comment is gone now, someone probably told her that blaming your victim on social media the day you plead guilty to raping him is probably not the best bet. But still, if a grown man molested a 14 year old girl and then she proceeded to molest a 3 year old boy, it's hard to imagine a situation where the girl goes to prison but the man doesn't. | /r/MensRights | 22/05/16 01:54 AM |

For civil trials either side can appeal a jury verdict if they believe the jury made the wrong decision, and for a criminal trial the defendant can appeal if they feel the trial was unfair or new evidence of their innocence emerges.

The charges of first degree kidnapping and first degree sexual assault apparently carry penalties of 20-99 years in prison (according to another article). The first degree means it's not statutory rape but forcible rape, which is why the penalty is so steep.

And she could be facing serious punishment if she's convicted, which is good.

The law written by feminists and women's rights activists for the pu… | /r/MensRights | 03/05/16 03:56 PM |

If they were girls that would most likely have been called "rape". Two years seems like a very light sentence. The judge seems almost reluctant to jail her, and his words make it seem like if there was any other option he would be going with that. Then again, this is in Scotland, where they've all but closed down the women's prisons,… | /r/MensRights | 03/05/16 03:28 PM |
| 6 | Woman who avoided jail after sexually abusing 14 year old boy and immediately violated the terms of her probation called a "serious and untreated sexual offender", but still won't go to jailBecause she got a plea deal to drop all sex offenses in exchange for pleading guilty to what basically amounts to "endangering the welfare of a minor". I don't think she has to register as a sex offender either. It doesn't matter how long the minimum punishments are. The system will always exempt women from them somehow. | /r/MensRights | 03/05/16 02:00 PM |

It wouldn't have mattered if she was forcing herself on a 12 year old boy who was backed into a corner and trying to scream for help (this has happened before). She still wouldn't be going to jail.

Less violent offenders are less likely to reoffend. I meant to say it was irrelevant in this context because I'm comparing punishments for sex crimes that don't include physical violence, but only coercion and manipulation. Men and women are just as capable of that yet even with our view restricted to these cases the sentences are severely skewed. Also, women are far less likely to reoffend than men are.

Which is honestly bizarre, because the other 5 involved older boys (14-15 as opposed to 11), and the same appeals judge who ruled on the Hatt case ruled in a number of those cases as well.

For instance I know the attorney general for England/Wales has made a habit of it recently (since taking over as attorney general in in mid-2014 I think he has appealed 6 of these non-custodial sentences for women, which amounts to every one I could find in his jurisdiction involving boys under 16, and had 5 of them overturned and replaced with jail).

When you have "you can plead guilty and get probation or go to trial and risk 20 years in prison" even an innocent person would consider taking the plea deal. Just have a guilty plea factored into the final sentence as a mitigating factor that takes 20% or so off the sentence. No pre-agreed upon sentences.

On the one hand, as things stand it seems to generally be that female teachers get off very easily and male teachers are punished harshly, and this bill supposedly adds a mandatory minimum of 3 years in prison that might help alleviate that. But, on the other hand, it seems very plausible that it provides loopholes that will let female teachers avoid the prison time anyway and only actually be used to give harsher punishments for male teachers. | /r/MensRights | 05/02/16 11:02 PM |

Seriously, they should just come out and say that they're reducing the bond because she's a woman. It's frustrating as hell when they come up with these obscure justifications for doing it.

Here, they're explaining how they choose the baselines for reproductive health, given that men don't have similar "ratings" in these areas. Basically, they will argue that women are being discriminated against unless there are zero childbirth deaths and zero adolescent pregnancies. That isn't really the problem.

For fuck's sake. He didn't even want to have sex on occasion, but she drugged him anyway to get him to.

I have no problem with the first being called rape, because it involves threatening to take negative action on the victim unless they provide sex to you. The second one is not, because breaking up with someone is not a negative action taken solely to harm the victim, it's a choice made for your own reasons (ie I'm looking for a sexual relationship and so will break up to find one for my own benefit). | /r/MensRights | 14/12/15 06:36 AM |
| 1 | Female Teacher has orgy with 5 students and is a "victim"So it should be illegal but not called rape? You're arguing semantics then. Like arguing that extortion (using a threat to take money) should not be called theft (using force to take money) because it's different. So this crime (using a threat to take sex) should not be called rape (using force to take sex), because it's different. Fine. It's usually not, it's usually called sexual assault or institutional sexual assault or sexual abuse or some such. But, colloquially, you can call extortion the… | /r/MensRights | 14/12/15 06:23 AM |
| 1 | Female Teacher has orgy with 5 students and is a "victim"If she threatened to fail them if they didn't fuck her, then they still made a choice. They could've gone to the dean, they could've let her fail them. They chose to give her what she wanted. They weren't in any physical danger or threat that would cause them bodily harm or death. Stop calling that rape. So there is you saying that it shouldn't be illegal (aka shouldn't be called rape) to threaten to fail a student in exchange for sex. | /r/MensRights | 14/12/15 06:08 AM |

Threatening someone in order to get money out of them. So a teacher threatening to fail a student unless he paid her some sum of money would fall under these laws.

When women are included as well, perhaps we can get people to put an end to this once and for all. As another article on this said, women generally fight very hard for their right to choose.

Just earlier this week a UK appeals court sent a 30 year old single mother with a small child to 2 years in jail for sex with a 15 year old boy after ruling a suspended sentence was unduly lenient. Earlier this year appeals courts in the UK sentenced two women to jail for sex with 14-15 year old boys after also finding suspended sentences unduly lenient, and last fall there was a s… | /r/MensRights | 20/11/15 11:16 PM |

He loves older girls and likes sex full stop." - 21 year old babysitter who walked free after raping 11 year old boy still doesn't think she's done anything wrong, blames victimThat petition has already been successful, as the attorney general has appealed and a court date has been set (Dec 8 I think). But I'd still sign it anyway for visibility's sake. It's nice to show that there is widespread support for justice for this kid. If you don't mind, I might link to this higher up to get it more visibility. I hate to admit it but this comment on the petition, signed Dave Salisbury, kind of made me laugh (while also being 100% accurate): Absolutely absurd!

So I was fucking this 11 year old girl and she was really, really enjoying it. It's even worse than that though. It's more like "I was fucking this 11 year old girl and she was really, really enjoying it even though she was telling me to stop" | /r/MensRights | 20/11/15 07:34 PM |

She will have to register for 7 years, and she's not allowed to be alone with young boys for 2 years. It doesn't really mean anything though. It doesn't really have all the devastating effects as it does in the US. It won't actually effect her life in any way. So, in reality, she's faced 0 consequences for her actions. | /r/MensRights | 20/11/15 05:45 PM |

He loves older girls and likes sex full stop." - 21 year old babysitter who walked free after raping 11 year old boy still doesn't think she's done anything wrong, blames victimI think this quote does a good job at showing how pathetic these suspended sentences for female pedophiles are. When you have an adult allowed to admit to sexually abusing an 11 year old and walk free without any sort of punishment still thinking they did nothing wrong because the victim was "asking for it", that's a problem. At least the sentence will be reviewed though. Edit: /u/ThunderousJellyfish pointed out that you can sign a petition calling for her to be jailed here.

| 1 | "Teenagers of both genders have a legal right to be protected from grooming and sexual interference" - teaching assistant is jailed for sex with 15 year old student after suspended sentence ruled unduly lenientI hardly think punishing adults for having sex with children is "unjust suffering" and I think it's beyond ridiculous that you guys are comparing people who rape children to slaves who run away. | /r/MensRights | 18/11/15 03:11 PM |
| 3 | "Teenagers of both genders have a legal right to be protected from grooming and sexual interference" - teaching assistant is jailed for sex with 15 year old student after suspended sentence ruled unduly lenientSure, but 2 years, even getting out after 1, is a world away from walking free. I mean think about it - spending the next year of your life in jail doing nothing all day vs doing a weekend or two of picking up garbage while going on with your daily life. One is a serious punishment that would probably make you regret your actions and deter others while the other you would basically think you got away with it. | /r/MensRights | 18/11/15 02:42 AM |

| 6 | "Teenagers of both genders have a legal right to be protected from grooming and sexual interference" - teaching assistant is jailed for sex with 15 year old student after suspended sentence ruled unduly lenientI'm not sure if that's allowed. Apparently the only sentences you can appeal as unduly lenient are "serious violent crimes" such as rape, robbery, or murder, child sex crimes, child cruelty, threats to kill, serious fraud, serious drug crimes, and racially or religiously motivated crimes. http://findlaw.co.uk/law/criminal/sentencing/8020.html It doesn't seem like false accusations would fall under that umbrella. | /r/MensRights | 17/11/15 05:34 PM |

Thanks to everyone who emailed the Attorney General's office when this news story first came out. The news media is still calling her "glamorous", which is disgusting, but at least she's going to jail now. | /r/MensRights | 17/11/15 04:12 PM |

He was suffering so much that he came forward, 10 years later, on his own to report the abuse after it was destroying his relationship. Clearly not "lucky" or anything as some people seem to insist.

| 2 | New Zealand female child rapist named. Was a school deputy principal. She gets the bizarre privilege of a "name suppression hearing" while men are named as soon as they are accused - but she was denied.New Zealand is one of those countries where women can't be guilty of rape, by definition. But New Zealand is probably the worst of them all. From Wikipedia: The sexual abuse of boys of any age, including rape, by adult women was fully legal in New Zealand until around 2007. This is despite New Zealand having been party to international conventions against the exploitation of children since the 1980s.

| 3 | 35 year old woman accused of raping 12 year old boy after he was instructed to walk her home from a party "for her safety"I'm trying to think of some justification for this. Like maybe she was really drunk and he wasn't so much there to protect her as guide her home? If it was a really safe neighborhood I could sort of kind of see someone doing that... The fact remains that no family would ever send their 12 year old daughter to escort a drunk adult man home from a party, because families would be protective of their daughters. The point here is that they need to learn to be protective of their sons too. | /r/MensRights | 12/11/15 03:57 AM |
