One thing bothers me though, if the sexes were reversed do you think a man would have gotten off with only 9 months of jail time?

It doesn't bother me much. Our culture basically has an ideal (though not reality) of protecting women's sexuality more than men's sexuality. That's fine by me, really.

But to answer your question, no a man would not have gotten off with only 9 months of jail time if he got sexual with a young teenage girl, or boy for that matter.

As a man, I fully embrace this double standard.

Boy, have you got that right!
