What's sauce for the goose is sauce for the gander.

Unfortunately this doesn't always apply in society. Of course when it comes to equal PAY and other "benefits", women want equality, but not when it comes to punitive issues.

Just take a look at how many female teachers have actually been sent to jail for having sex with their students compared to their male counterparts who did the same thing (and the numbers diverge even further when you compare the GOOD-LOOKING women who went to jail as opposed to ugly men).

There is a HUGE double-standard and it's just flat out WRONG.

Damn straight.

Try this one on for size: Two bank robberies, both involving a handgun, both with the take being the same.

Now, the difference is that one robbery is committed by a 30-ish black male, the other by an attractive white female in her early 20's.

Do they serve the same sentence? Probably not.
