Another beautiful loving relationship between a 45 year old teacher and his 16 year old student:

Damn cops, just must hate love charging him with sexual exploitation like that.

How is it false? One was in a position of authority, the other was not. That, by the very definition of the world "equals," makes it impossible.
Let's not also overlook that the student came forward to police a decade later looking for justice, or maybe trying to protect other young girls being taught by this sicko. Let's please try not to victim blame and accuse her of being an "equally guilty" party in this rape. That's just going to discourage other sexual assault victims from coming forward.

When you rape someone, it's rape. It's a heavy word, but we shouldn't shy away from it.
I mean, you could consider which one is worse, taking advantage of a heavily drunk woman who doesn't have the capacity to consent or forcibly sexually assaulting someone in the back alley with a knife, but at the end of the day they are both rape. Just as ####ing your underage student is. I would far more heavily caution those that don't want to call this rape a rape. Trying to downplay the severity, or worse, argue that the student was not raped only hurts the victims and potential future victims. When some of the first posts made by certain posters in this thread were to argue that the victim may have consented (which is impossible by law, but I digress) is really victim blaming and going to scare away other victims from coming forward.

Like, for an example, whether one person was in the position of authority?
