> The unfortunate reality is that a lot of guys, when they learn of situations like this, think either to themselves or out loud, “where were women like this when I was 15 yrs old?!?”

Yeah I was thinking the same. I wonder if the 15 year old felt he was “raped”by a cheerleader or if the parents are just trying to cash in. Thinking back to that age being an adolescent guy full of hormones I probably woudn’t have called it raped. I’m not saying its right but there is a big difference between young men and young women being raped. Just bing real here.

I concur. If a teenage boy (with the testosterone of a full grown man pulsing through his veins) is able to ('ahem') 'rise to the occasion' and enjoyed himself, I doubt very much if in his mind, he considers himself a 'rape' victim.

I had a couple of situations that could have turned out like that when I was a mere 14 yr old, but fortunately (in retrospect) the women in question had higher moral standards and refused to cross that line, as much as my own raging hormones wished they would and I'm a better man for it.

And I agree on the parents, they may see this as a way of hitting the ever illusive lawsuit jackpot, after their boy ('ahem' again) "hit the jackpot".
