What's with all this "what if he was 20 and she was 14" crap? That girl will go to jail because there's a law that she broke. Case closed. The whole point of this topic is that the law itself is flawed. Why? 20 year old girl just fulfills the dream of any 14 year old boy and she goes to jail for that. That's what we're discussing here. We don't decide if she goes to jail or not, and if you were in a jury you'd still say "damn... wish I hired her, oh well, guilty, sorry miss." But a lot of people just can't accept that "fulfills the dream of any 14 year old boy" part. I'm gonna take the road that Twiceworn took and point out that:
1. most 14 years old have already seen "2 girls one cup"
2. most 14 years old dread the "whaa, you're still a virgin? Douche!" talk in school
3. most 14 years old, if they're alone with a pretty 20 year old girl in the house WILL think about sex with that girl
So all the girl needs to say is "well..." and he's THERE! Now for this to be a sexual assault, I mean cmmoon.
But ok, let's reverse the genders. I personally know a girl who got together at age 13 with a 19 year old guy and they're married now. Neither of them has ever been with anyone else, and they loved each other at first sight. And yeah, I thought she was a whore too, and the guy a douche, took some time to change my mind about that. 200 hundred years ago women became mothers (and most died at childbirth) at age 14. Ok, so we changed the law, no sex before 16, ok (it's 18 in my country, not that it matters to kids these days). But it's absurd to put "20 year old guy has sex with 14 year old girl that likes him" in the same cell with "crazy uncle which tricks 6 year old niece into sucking his dick". Ok she's young at 14, she's most probably already seen "2 girls one cup", she knows what sex is, but ok, fine maybe she's easier to fool. And again, as Twiceworn said, she might not dream about having sex with her babysitter. If the 14 year old guy goes to schoool the next day, he's the envy of every classmate. If the 14 year old girl goes to school the next day, she's a slut. She has more reason to refuse the sex so ok, throw the dude in jail because he must've done something weird there to convince her. But in THIS case, it just feels wrong for that 19 year old babysitter to go to prison.
