30. Reality has a double standard, so our attitudes must match reality.
Women get pregnant, men don't.

Men can rape women, but it usually takes some degree of cooperation from the guy is she is the aggressor. Even in the case a couple of decades back in Utah where the woman, (A former Miss Utah I believe.) had the hots for a guy and he wasn't interested in her. She had some male friends tie the guy nude in bed on his back. Then she got on top and his basic biology kicked into action. Afterwards he complained to the police, the story hit the papers, and most men asked, "Is he really complaining or bragging?"

Since the sexual reality is different for the sexes, we have to realize that difference.

The kid "probably?" enjoyed it??????? PROBABLY????? Like about 99.999999% probability that he LOVED it.

Still, it isn't healthy for the boy, but nowhere nearly as damaging for him as it could be for a girl. Since the damage normally less for boy "victims", then the punishment is usually less.
