Question:
Should we begin to be suspicious of female teachers now?

I got an e-mail from one of those newsgroups that I suscribed to a loonnggg time ago. In the e-mail was a link to this website:
http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=53859

This link is a list of female pedophiles and child molesters throughout the recent years...like this year or 2005 or whatever. Admittingly, I'm a little annoyed...not only because some of the links are outdated (News sites make you search their archives) but a good amount of these women have gotten pretty light sentences. However I know that the criminal justice, along with society, is becoming more strict on their rules, regardless of the person's characteristics.

But I've noticed a pattern here. Most of these female sex offenders are teachers or guidance counselors or some other position within the boundaries of academia! Because these female teachers are being caught (Much like the catholic church's male sex offender epidemic), are we heading towards another sexual offender/predator scare...this time towards women?

Another question I also have is...What do you think about this huge (and growing) list of female sex offenders?

Thanks for reading.

Most sexual predators seek positions where they will be in close contact with children (little league coaches, teachers, guidance counsellors etc.) and will be seen as trusted authority figures.



I think females have always been capable of paedophilia but it is just now starting to be recognized so naturally there will be media attention and a social outcry. Because recognition of this behaviour is relatively new it will take a while for the justice system and society to work out the kinks in how this crime is viewed and dealt with. Just like with any new horrific and frightening discovery there will probably be a period of panic and outrage which will slowly fade into the background.



Punishment needs to be swift and severe and regulations, rules and backround checks need to be upped so we can weed out child predators (of either sex) before they come in contact with our children.

Female pedophiles have always existed, they have only been subject to the law in recent years, and receive very little punishment for their behavior as compared to men/boys. But it is changing.



Men are not becoming teachers or any career that exposes them to children because of the hysteria surrounding "protect the children". Now that there are fewer men exposing themselves to any situation that could lead to accusations of child abuse, the target is becoming the women.



There are innumerable organizations that depend financially on encouraging the hysteria that children are being abused. If they solve the problem, they are out of a job, so they will keep expanding what is considered abuse and who can be an abuser in order to stay in business.



The feminist idea that men (all men) are potential rapists has led to the expansion of the definition of "sex offender" to include things like an 18 year old boy with a 17 year old girlfriend being prosecuted, rarely the other way around. So men have reacted by protecting themselves.



Now with the financial intensive to keep the hysteria going, organizations that exist solely to "protect the children" are targeting women also, where they would not have in the past, because men are not as available as targets.

I would say it is a very few female teachers and administrators that are responsible. But the law is not addressing the issue. Punish these women and place them in jail.



You know what will happen next. They refuse to enforce the laws on the books so the politicians will make new laws (that will not be enforced either) and it will negatively impact all teachers regardless how great they actually are.

properly if he's spaying the three women human beings and not Neutering the male i do no longer see that "Very incorrect" i do no longer see a difficulty with that atleast he's getting the girls human beings spayed so as that they won't be able to have domestic dogs. as far as your Chihuahua is going You did no longer see the physique basically your father did, you spot unusual-formed bloodstains interior the driveway properly did it look like it became blood-tire marks? Did you look on the tires to confirm if there became blood on it? no person right here can inform you what took place on your lady dogs i'm sorry on your loss yet no person right here can inform you what took place. I propose you refer to somebody approximately this, quite a family contributors member you have confidence or a expert like a counselor.

I think I am suspicious about all teachers if they want to be alone with teens...most pedophiles are still male even though more sick females seem to be showing up. I am wondering what there is in common for all of these sick females. Are they normal XX females or something else?

Instead of receiving punishment for their actions, female pedophiles often get their 15 minutes of fame and even sympathies from the media. This is due to the fact that women are rarely being held accountable for their actions in our society. You can clearly see this within the (in)justice system where female criminals are being punish far less severely than male one.

I wonder if its always been like this but in the past it wasnt reported as much. Its shocking and sickening that anyone would take advantage of a child.

No..



The vast majority of criminals and rapist are still males. Always have and always will.. Do you even realize how many women and children die and get beaten each year at the hand of males?



Now quit whining..
