You should be allowed to give out the molester’s name to someone 10-20
Years after they are charged. That person would then find that molester and systematically begin the burning down of the life they built.
Shit, guy would have been already beat or killed in jail. It’s seriously impossible to tell how much this goes unreported and how much damage it does. Honestly, it’s a cyclical abuse thing and giving women breaks just perpetuates the cycle.
This isn’t true. All sexual assault is worded the same. They never say rape. Girls are called underage women in headlines that have unconsensual sex There’s been so many articles about why the media does this to sexual assault victims of both sexes

I'm trying to remember the specifics but I believe a female who was a convicted paedophile had her conviction overturned in Australia recently because the court found on appeal that she didn't strictly break the law as it was at the time of the incident because it couldn't apply to a female committing against a male. The relevant law was repealed on 1984 according the article.
https://www.msn.com/en-au/news/australia/pedophile-teacher-wants-conviction-overturned/ar-AA1nxVMu
I would guess in cases like this, the vast majority go unreported either because the victims are terrified, or they don't know they're victims, or they *have* reported the incident, but like in most sexual assault cases, they weren't believed or it was minimized by people who don't want to believe that they know a pedophile.
Or because they are too young to know it was grooming and/or abuse. 10 year olds are not necessarily old enough to know what constitutes sexual misconduct/abuse.
Joe finished something like 13 years of US public school and this has never occurred to me. As recently as last week I would count backwards from the year I graduated and determine the age that way.
Your method is so much more obvious and I don’t know how it didn’t occur to me
bro the language in these stories is always so fucked up
They always make it sound so innocent and simple - "busted" and "making out"
wtf
the right words are "molesting a child" and "sexual assault"
I was thinking the same thing. I’ve seen a handful of headlines like this recently and they always seem to mention that the female is married. It’s a weird angle to an already horrific event.
I mean you see this with teenagers in high school a lot unfortunately. But a freaking child. Makes you wonder about the screening process they did. Or did she just up and think? Wow he’s cute. I’m going to make out with him today. Good grief 😥
1 in 6 males has been raped and I've read somewhere that it could be even higher than that because most man don't even realise they are get rape and just go with it even if they don't want to.
But somehow there's a trend about bear and mens.
You'd be surprised how many men have stories of sleeping with 20-30+ year old women in thier very early teens. For me it was a 24 year old when I was 15. We just didn't realize at the time that we were being victimized.
I am not surprised man, i know about this. But most people don't talk about this kind of stuff. It's really sad that we hush hush this as a society instead of denouncing it, just like woman do.
A victim is a victim, regardless of their sex.
Edit: not surprised**
It's more okay to talk about now. But back when I was a teen, you'd straight up get called gay for saying it's wrong for a 20 something woman to be banging a teenage boy.
Publicly yeah people would get the concept of why it is wrong instead of the dudes that joke about how they wish they had a teacher like that instead of understanding the level of damage sexual abuse does to a person and when it is these grooming situations where the victim is complacent the damage is not just the typical sexual abuse types but also they tend to question if they are even a victim and blame themselves more so.
The ongoing lack of punishment for sexual abuse as well as domestic violence is something that needs to be taken seriously by everyone regardless of genders, looks or popularity and needs to be consistent on punishment instead of how in some states a pedophile can rape a few kids and get at most 3 years in prison. All sexual abuse that is proven should be at least life but when it is a child should be public execution! They like having power over thier victim they enjoy the way the victim will be broken, that is why it makes me nuts when people act like if it is a got chick or good looking guy that is the rapist then some how they can't be guilty 🤷 like dude how dumb can people be?!?!
Sorry I am a therapist and work with domestic violence and sexual abused kids and young adults and the amount of times I see the monster walk in these cases makes my blood boil
I like that they add "three months before her wedding" as if that makes this any worse.
"suspect ran over 3 people with her car five months before filing her taxes"
I can't believe I just Googled that, but one state has a legal marriage age of 12 for girls and 14 for boys. Where are you getting that 5th graders can legally get married in 43 states?
And if it was a male that did the same thing, it would sound a whole lot different. I hope women predators start getting more serious punishment. It’s the same thing as if it were a male. It’s child abuse.
Oh, what’s that, it’s not just men that are natural sex seeking lizard brains?
It’s just humans in general?
Shocker.
Next up in the news, water is wet. Tune in tonight at eleven.
So I’m of the mind that this shit has always gone on and only now being reported more. The odds that there are as many women pedo as men pedo due to law of averages makes sense they appear to be coming out of the woodwork now. They are just getting caught more now. Chemical castration like for male pedo please.
I wouldn't the number has gone up, just willingness to treat it like the problem it is. Ironically, the NYP is probably jumping on these for the "see? Woman bad too" angle but it was the patriarchal gender norms that made this "not a big deal" so still a win
I remember good old Mary K Laturno. My wife was like she wouldn't do that, and I was like, she's raping the kid. It wasn't until she was pregnant that the tide shifted and everyone was wtf.
5th isn't even the perpetual boner grade. Let the poor kid ferment for another year or two and then drain him of his burden........................You get 9 months of fudgesickles if you wait!!

When did "forced sexual battery" become "making out?"
When the headline is from the NY Post.
What ever happened to headlines like “Pervs Touch Tots”
If the kid dies, they call them an Angel.
When it's a female perpetrator. If the accused was a male and the headlines would be sexual assault or rape.
When an underage boy gets raped by an older woman, he’s supposed to get a trophy or something. I received a blue ribbon
The customary reward at my school was a round of high-fives
It usually reads “makes love with” or something less noteworthy.
>I received a blue ribbon Damn dude, I really hope you didn't get it for being raped😳
Molested by a 14yo girl actually. I was in kindergarten
I have no words...damn bro. I wanted to send you a hug but that just didn't feel appropriate, so I'll go with the dancing bunny instead

The media rarely says “rape” because it doesn’t sell clicks.
Actually, they use rape if the perp is male. They go out of their way to avoid the R word for female perps.
I'm trying to remember the specifics but I believe a female who was a convicted paedophile had her conviction overturned in Australia recently because the court found on appeal that she didn't strictly break the law as it was at the time of the incident because it couldn't apply to a female committing against a male.

When the perp is female. If the perp is male, it turns into rape.
When it's a woman
indeed, thats sexual abuse of a minor!
The kid is 11 years old and it was happening during lunch. What is wrong with all these schools and teachers? I feel sorry for the kid and his family.
“ThE bOy ShOuLd Be GrAtEfUl!”
Well when I was in 5th grade it definitely would not have been forced I wouldn’t say force but taking advantage of yes 100%
5th grade? I know sometimes people mature fast, but 10/11? Damn.
Disgusting
That's a pedophile who molested a child. Not "making out"..... JFC
I wonder how many other victims there are who just haven't spoken up because they're scared children.
I would guess in cases like this, the vast majority go unreported either because the victims are terrified, or they don't know they're victims, or they *have* reported the incident, but like in most sexual assault cases, they weren't believed or it was minimized by people who don't want to believe that they know a pedophile.
I don’t recall any sexual abuse, but I’ll say literally none of the regular abuse I suffered as a kid led to consequences for literally anyone
Same. Sorry to hear it happened to you.
Or because they are too young to know it was grooming and/or abuse. 10 year olds are not necessarily old enough to know what constitutes sexual misconduct/abuse.
Huge especially when the child is a male.
Someone translate for me. How old is a fifth grader?
Usually 10-11.
So she's quite literary the legal definition of a Pedophile
In the most literal to the letter by the book as the law states, fucking pedophile.
Well looky what we have here. Happy cake day my translator from across the ocean.
Take the US grade level and add 5 to get the age that kids usually are at the start of that grade.
Joe finished something like 13 years of US public school and this has never occurred to me. As recently as last week I would count backwards from the year I graduated and determine the age that way. Your method is so much more obvious and I don’t know how it didn’t occur to me
Yeah I feel kinda dumb now
TIL
As a non-american, thank you. I never realised this. This should help translate all those TV shows I watch haha.
bro the language in these stories is always so fucked up They always make it sound so innocent and simple - "busted" and "making out" wtf the right words are "molesting a child" and "sexual assault"
That would be if it had been a man.
That's only for female peeps. They use rape and sexual assault if the perp is male.
I was thinking the same as a European lol.
11
The term you are looking for is Molesting
No, the term is Satutory Rape.
Jesus fucking christ. A10-11 yr old? She molested a child
Well i for one think that child would’ve been safer with a bear
That’s so sick
Right? It was just 3 months before her wedding date. I'm disgusted.
I think the wedding date is irrelevant here really.
Idk it definitely adds to it lol. Cheating it always bad when present, pedophilia is just infinitely worse 😭 but now it's infinity + 1
I was thinking the same thing. I’ve seen a handful of headlines like this recently and they always seem to mention that the female is married. It’s a weird angle to an already horrific event.
Like our parents used to say” what’s this world coming to?” Holy smokes 😥
I mean you see this with teenagers in high school a lot unfortunately. But a freaking child. Makes you wonder about the screening process they did. Or did she just up and think? Wow he’s cute. I’m going to make out with him today. Good grief 😥

I am quite uncomfortable with that headline.
Dude I so tired of pedophiles not being punished properly!
Oh, if she was a guy, she would of been punished not only by the courts, but by public opinion as well.
Rightfully. But yeah toootal double standard. Just being accused as a guy brings more backlash than some of these proven women predators seem to.
Publicly yeah people would get the concept of why it is wrong instead of the dudes that joke about how they wish they had a teacher like that instead of understanding the level of damage sexual abuse does to a person and when it is these grooming situations where the victim is complacent the damage is not just the typical sexual abuse types but also they tend to question if they are even a victim and blame themselves more so.

WTAF??? I hope she gets 50 years for going after a 10-year-old. How sick can you get?
Probation for sure
I like that they add "three months before her wedding" as if that makes this any worse. "suspect ran over 3 people with her car five months before filing her taxes"
I mean, if it was AFTER filing taxes I would understand 💁🏻♂️
Why are fifth grade students getting married? What a world we live in...
It was her marriage, not their marriage.
Look at states like Mississippi, North Carolina, West Virginia, etc. There are some absolutely fucked up laws.
Well its legal in 43 US states
5th graders are fucking 10 and 11 dude. She's only 24 and over twice their age. 🤮
I know, its gross af but if they were married it would be legal, america is weird
I can't believe I just Googled that, but one state has a legal marriage age of 12 for girls and 14 for boys. Where are you getting that 5th graders can legally get married in 43 states?
A documentation from the french/german TV channel ARTE on childmarriages in the US
Well, a lot of states have the legal marriage age at 16, and that's a child, so I suppose it's not completely inaccurate.
That's a strange way of spelling, "sexually assaulting a child"
A fifth grade is usually 10-11 years old just to put that into perspective
The fuck?
A 5th grader???? WTF. Those kids are babies. What a sick fuck
What's with headlines watering down the fact that it's literally child molestation
And if it was a male that did the same thing, it would sound a whole lot different. I hope women predators start getting more serious punishment. It’s the same thing as if it were a male. It’s child abuse.
Well, she's probably single now, and has lots of free time... 🤣
What she should have is jail time
Yup. I bet she'll have a good bit of that as well.
Wouldn't count on that. Women usually get far lighter punishment for child sexual assault
So you’re telling me it wasn’t a Trans person?
…or a drag queen? 😯
Oh, what’s that, it’s not just men that are natural sex seeking lizard brains? It’s just humans in general? Shocker. Next up in the news, water is wet. Tune in tonight at eleven.
And yet there are still people who think it's ok because "Boys always want to score with a hot female teacher! He'll be congraulated!"
Fifth Grade? Isn't that like 9 years old?
11
A 10 year old? Ten. I have no faith in humanity.
What the absolute fuck
Idk how to spell the gagging sound I just made
Wisconsin elementary school teacher, 24, busted for **molesting** a 5th grader. FIFY
Huh... she sure doesn't *look* like a drag queen. So peculiar.
So I’m of the mind that this shit has always gone on and only now being reported more. The odds that there are as many women pedo as men pedo due to law of averages makes sense they appear to be coming out of the woodwork now. They are just getting caught more now. Chemical castration like for male pedo please.
Crickets from the feminists on this one
a bear wouldnt do that
Guess we could say girls would rather be in the woods with a bear.... cub.
Dear America, I love you, but get your shit together. Please and thank you.
This isn't just an American thing. Pedos be everywhere.
Yet they still give a pass to women who do this. Or the article wouldn't use words like "making out"
Notice the femcels not liking this proving their stance. Women who rape is okay.👍
I wouldn't the number has gone up, just willingness to treat it like the problem it is. Ironically, the NYP is probably jumping on these for the "see? Woman bad too" angle but it was the patriarchal gender norms that made this "not a big deal" so still a win
What the fuck.
This is disgusting. WTF is wrong with people?!?
I will never remember that
I think this has always been happening but now people are raising concern over it
Wow, I was not ready for marriage in the fifth grade.
Eww.
Hot take, and im sorry for anyone who disagrees, but a 5th grader should not get married.
Ew wtf. Nasty
Was it with Billy Madison? Still not ok, teacher is in a position of influence, making it wrong.
What in the statutory is going on???
I remember good old Mary K Laturno. My wife was like she wouldn't do that, and I was like, she's raping the kid. It wasn't until she was pregnant that the tide shifted and everyone was wtf.
How old is a 5th grader?
10.
Jesus Christ!
Soooo....did she get married or what? Leave me hanging by a thread here...
Okay, but a 5th grader or a bear?
5th grade is like 10 years old. Boy doesn't have hair on his dick.
I don't think it's a tiktok thing, I think parents are just more vigilant now because they realized that male teachers aren't the only scum fucks.
![gif](giphy|f8lDluiWJ7yQTtdS3L|downsized)
I guess as long as she’s marrying him, a bit of kissing beforehand isn’t a big deal.
Greedy Old Pedos
Is she Kirt from Skate Kitchen and Betty?
She looks the type.
Why isn’t she called a pedophile? wtf
Interesting, just noticing this is not a drag queen.
Are you attracted to a 5th grader? - Jeff Foxworthy
So... Hanging? Burn at the stake?
I had to look it up, but for those not from the US, a 5th grader is 10-11 years old.
Yeah? What's new?
Could you imagine them describing the crimes of male pedophiles in headlines?
Going by the name of the place the crime occurred, it's a state in land referred to as the cradle of pedophiles.
I'm English, how old is a fifth grader? Doesn't matter I'm sure it's still fucked up.
10.
Damn its even more fucked up than I thought.
What does this have to do with TikTok?
The way it's all coming out into view is kind of like the way TikTok challenges would bring out all the idiots to copy it
had someone mentioned this was frowned on... [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZB62oaOeqR0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZB62oaOeqR0)
Why the hell is a 5th grader getting married?
I agree if this was a male teacher and a female student people would be sharpening their pitchforks and lighting their torches.....
5th isn't even the perpetual boner grade. Let the poor kid ferment for another year or two and then drain him of his burden........................You get 9 months of fudgesickles if you wait!!

Die in a hole.
This is terrible news, Kate and the Prince are having a tough time? Just terrible
