Female Sex Offenders Sometimes Viewed Differently
When it comes to young female teachers and student sex abuse, there tends to be a double standard. Some in the public, usually males, may think that it is okay for male students to have a relationship with their female teachers. They may make comments, such as “Where was this teacher when I was in school?” or “What does she look like?” However, if the roles were reversed and it was a male teacher engaging in a sexual relationship with a minor female student, their comments and reactions would probably be entirely different.
