Jeff,
Your point becomes all the more significant in light of estimates that, what, 85% of abusers are known to the kid. So these 50 perps grroming kids on the net, though a large number, are just from the 15% rump of abusers - the rest just merrily continue on.

Jeff,
as we all know, women are not as aggressive as men but seen as gentle souls. If a woman abuses a boy it is trememdously difficult to understand it.
People tend to look at it as a coming of age scenario rather than abuse, this issue needs clarifying pretty quickly.
This is another issue, the one about male rape. It happens far more frequently but it never makes the press, it does not matter how strong you are, they can get you.
I can only guess they learned that in prison,

Reminds me <<<>>> of that judge in the Dorothy Lefave case who said she was "too pretty" to go to jail (or something like that) and took her looks as an argument for doubting whether the boy had been abused at all. Yuk.
