I think what she did, as a person of reasonsibility, was reprehensible. I think the argument based solely on age is weak. It wasn’t a little boy, it was a person who in many cultures would be considered a man. She was stupid and betrayed a trust. She should go to jail. It wasn’t pedophillia and to call it such lessens the true horror of that crime.

“It wasn’t pedophillia and to call it such lessens the true horror of that crime.”

I haven’t called it pedophilia and don’t consider it so. Pederasty, I guess. Anyway, it is child molestation. He is a minor.

I agree indulgence of pedophilia is a far worse crime. These things come in degrees.
