Punishments should be the same for women as for men in these situations, no question. A distinction I'd make — and it is one that has no moral significance — is that sometimes peoples’ motivations may be “nuts”, but that doesn't make their actions any less evil. A man who was attracted to a mildly simple-minded but physically beautiful sixteen year old girl would be not be “nuts” in his motivation, but would be morally depraved and criminal if he acted on it. In this situation, that a woman of high intelligence would be romantically/sexually attracted to a mentally and severely physically impaired man is indeed “sick”, but that “sickness” does not mitigate the simple depravity and illegality of her actions in manipulating him and acting on her attraction. So, I do agree with those who assert that this woman is “nuts”, but I think she also is “evil”. Being crazy (in the non-legally insane sense) and being bad are not mutually exclusive.

Yes but in the law being nuts excuses you from the punishment of the evil you did.

You cant say shes nuts or she skates. This predisposition to want women to be nuts by people because we cannot handle the reality of women being evil is destroying justice in our country.

Every evil person has reasons for being evil. That is just explanation. With women its used as excuses to get them lesser sentences or off the hook completely. It just has to stop.

In most of the situations of women’s having sex with men or boys under illegal conditions, the issue is “resolved” by saying the man/boy was physically gratified. Often there’s a psychological element introduced regarding the woman’s appearance. Why is this not another, “It’s against the law but ... *snicker*” situation?

(Please note that I am attacking the reasoning behind the, “He enjoyed it,” “defense”, rather than the law.)
