[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I don't get is why he's treated the same as pedophile rapists who are attacking 6 year olds. Or rapists who attack women at night. Even though she was young, this was consensual. What we teach boys is  "yes means yes" and she clearly said yes. [/quote]

I agree.[/quote]

We also teach our young people when they turn 18 that they are now adults and they need to be very careful about what they do with others who are younger than they are. Turning 18 is our society's marker for becoming a legal adult. When I was that age, we were very aware that yes does not mean yes if the other person is a minor who has not yet reached the age of consent. We were taught that when a legal adult has sex with an underage minor child, that constitutes statutory rape, regardless of whether the minor said yes.

..except this guy did think he was having sex with someone older.  So, he was following what you said.   :roll: [/quote]

I'm not the PP, but no, he wasn't following what the PP said. It's not "very careful" to go have sex with somebody you met on a dating app, based on them saying that they're 16. [/quote] Yet, millions of "adults" are using dating apps to meet people every day. [/quote]
