Disturbing rise of the women child sex predators: What's behind it? And would they be punished so leniently if they were men?

pretty sure it's not a "rise" so much as they are simply getting caught more often now and it's being recognized as a crime whereas before the worst that would happen is some kids parents would tell you to stay the hell away from their child. "rise" implies they weren't there, or were there in smaller numbers previously.

That dad is such a dumbass. The kid said he knew it was wrong. But he was probably covering the sitters ass because he had an affair with her.

The judge, Tim Mousley QC, described it as ‘an exceptional case’, saying that while the defendant was ‘immature’, the victim was unusually mature — which ‘narrows the arithmetic age gap’.

What fucking bullshit. So the intelligence of the adult predator is stacked up against the child victim? So what if she's a fucking idiot? The son could be traumatized for life.

I think they're just getting caught more and a lot of it has to do with cell phones. It seems like every time one of them gets caught it's because she was sexting her target constantly. Women and their phones....

I'm 50 years old and I can recall during high school women that I knew of who were chasing teenage boys for sex. I remember being in a high school play and adults from the community were also involved in various ways - makeup, sets, etc. There were three women who appeared to just join the play for the sole purpose of having access to teenage boys. None of the five women I knew about was ever busted or otherwise outed.

It is the opposite of disturbing: it is comforting, is it not, that we are finally taking these crimes seriously. Not by far as seriously as we take those perpetrated by men, but the progress is all the same stunning.

Why in the world would we interpret this as a rise in sexual predation? Is the explanation that we are simply increasingly recognising this as a crime not the more likely explanation?

I would even expect female perpetration to predominate. Not because women are in any way more evil or lasvicous than men (quite the opposite). But because, unlike men, they have not been taught their entire lives that their sexuality is predatory - on the contrary, they are taught that it is valuable and that the objects of their desire is "lucky". That, combined with our traditional unwillingness to take abuse by women seriously, let alone penalise it, provides for a range of incentives. And, as we all know, human beings react to incentives.

Well, for a bit there, I thought I'd absolutely hate the article -- when the author began offering excuses for the rapists -- but when she began quoting Dr Burrowes, I was quite pleased by the tone.

Well when you are able to get away with it for decades with zero repercussions sociopaths start to feel brazen and that they will never be caught. Until they start treating it the same for both genders it will continue to get worse.

I don't think there is any significant rise I think most of them just go un-noticed or get away with it.

2015-10-16T15:14:20+00:00

Probably because they know they can get away with it

What's behind it?

an almost iron clad knowledge that they won't be punished seriously, and instead of being called a monster, people will say "Nice!" if they're attractive, and if she's not hot she can always blame it on her damaged emotional state caused by a man.

would they be punished so leniently if they were men?

That's not a real question, is it?

It's mostly teachers we see in the news but IMO female family members and babysitters and medical staff have been doing this for ever IMO.

I mean, purely anecdotally.... I stumbled across the part of a somewhat popular website where child rapists hung out. It seemed to be equal numbers of men and women. No, not Reddit.
