Special Rights for Teen Lesbians?

You know how the “Free Kate” crowd say they have no agenda beyond “fairness” and “equality”? There is reason to doubt:

It’s difficult to describe my reaction to Kristin Ireland’s tearful “Lifetime movie” sympathy for Paige in Pennsylvania, jailed for being an 18-year-old having sex with a 14-year-old girl.

According to Ireland, this is a story about “railroading and “discrimination,” as if 18-year-old guys in Pennsylvania were routinely banging 14-year-olds without any fear of prosecution.

I think not, ma’am.

And I think Kristin Ireland wouldn’t be boo-hooing if this was a teenage boy doing time for statutory rape. No, her sympathy is reserved entirely for her fellow lesbians, and so therefore either:

  1. We must create a special Gay Jailbait Loophole to prevent the prosecution of “consensual” gay sex with 14-year-olds;
    or
  2. We must effectively end all prosecution for such crimes, hetero or homo, because equal application of the law would occasionally result in some 18-year-old lesbians going to jail for dating ninth-graders, and this would make Kristin Ireland cry.

Do these people ever think in terms of contingencies or unintended consequences? Can they not remove themselves from the emotional zone where tearful mothers bemoan the fate of their criminal children?

“Sure, Johnny stole that car, but lots of teenagers steal cars and get away with it. Why did they send my poor Johnny to jail?”

Nobody’s making a Lifetime movie about that, are they? No, and if Johnny the Teenage Hoodlum gets caught banging a 14-year-old, Kristin Ireland doesn’t give a damn about that, either.

It’s all about the Sacred Sapphic Sisterhood with her, and so the parents of Paige’s sexual conquest who objected to their daughter’s initiation into that sorority at age 14 are just hateful bigots.

Ditto for any parent who might object to their 14-year-old son playing naked leapfrog with 18-year-old guys, and we don’t know if Kristin Ireland if willing to extend the acceptable range beyond this specific 18/14 spread, or whether she’d grant enough leeway for a 19-year-old to take your 13-year-old to the Seventh-Grade Dance (and then go parking at Lover’s Lane afterwards, of course).

Exactly where Kristin Ireland would draw the line is hard to determine, but we can only hope it’s somewhere short of the point at which a perp tearfully tells us, “But she willingly got in the van — she said she wanted to help me find my puppy — it was consensual!”

A Lifetime movie, indeed.

UPDATE: If it’s OK for lesbians to have sex with 14-year-olds, certainly there’s no reason 16-year-olds should be off-limits, right?

On March 21, Garcia picked up the girl, and went to Starbucks for coffee. It was at the coffee shop that the teacher told the teen about her romantic dream involving the student.
A week later, Garcia texted the girl to inform her she had just broken up with her boyfriend, and the pair expressed personal feelings for each other.
The teen told Garcia she needed to see her, and the teacher picked her up in a rental car to drive the girl back to her apartment, “where they kissed passionately for the rest of the evening.”
The following day, the pair reportedly went shopping together for a sex toy at the Katz Boutique and Sex Shop.

“Her romantic dream”! And only haters could object.

UPDATE II: Thanks to the commenter who found this July 2010 sentencing record for Warren, Pa.:

Paige Moriah Johnson, 19, of 2407 Lenhart Rd., to six to 24 months in a state correctional institution, $825 in fines and fees and pay the cost of prosecution for corruption of minors; and to six to 12 months in a state correctional institution consecutive to the first sentence and undergo a sexual offenders evaluation for corruption of minors. Johnson was ordered to have no contact with victim in the case.

This is evidently the “Paige” whose case drove Kristin Ireland to tears, and it so happens that the next case in the docket is this:

James Edward Vroman, 22, of Centerville, Pa., to 12 to 24 months in state correctional institution, pay the cost of prosecution, $750 in fines and fees and undergo a sexual offenders evaluation for statutory sexual assault; and to three to 12 months in a state correctional institution consecutive to the first sentence and 100 hours community service for interference with custody of children. Vroman was ordered to have no contact with the victim in the case.

So it’s not just females who are doing time for messing with jailbait, but Kristin Ireland weeps no tears for James Vroman.

  1. Does anybody really believe that tears were dripping on this woman’s fingers as she typed? Sheesh, get a grip.

  2. demandequality. Breathe deep three times. Then smile. It is the way to deal with anger and stress.

    But stop abusing 14 year olds girls. It is not healthy and it is still criminal (and even if you manage to change the law, it is bad karma).

  3. OMG, I just read the guide. OMG.

    For more on Jennings, do a search over at Gateway Pundit. He has a lot of info on the guy.

  4. I think deep down some of these people may know that’s it’s just wrong to have sex with kids who are fourteen, that’s it wrong not to have any age of consent rules, but they shout abusive language hoping not to hear the voices of their conscience. They may also not wish be reminded that some of them were preyed on by people who should have truly loved them, respected them and not abused them for their own sexual pleasure claiming to love them.

    That or there are some people who are just evil and wish to use any excuse for their abuse of children.

    Sounds like “demand equality” is a pal of Paiges.

  5. […] All of that brings me back to the Equality Pimps. Take what Stacy McCain has been blogging about lately for example. An 18-year -old girl, had sexual encounters with another girl, age 14. 14 is below the age of consent, so this 18-year-old Lesbian is finding out, as many boys over the age of 18 have found out, that actions, if they are sexual in nature with minors, have consequences. Sounds fair right? Sounds like equality to me. But, nit to the Gay activist types, who are trying to recreate the civil rights movement. I will let Stacy pick it up here […]

  6. “Do not suffer yourself to get excited by what is said about you. Let the world talk; do you strive to do the will of God; as for that of men, you could never succeed in doing it to their satisfaction, and it is not worth the pains. A moment of silence, of peace, and of union to God, will amply recompense you for every calumny that shall be uttered against you. We must love our fellows, without expecting friendship from them; they leave us and return, they go and come; let them do as they will; it is but a feather, the sport of the wind. See God only in them; it is He that afflicts or consoles us, by means of them, according as we have need.”

  7. What kind of world do we live in where someone can just go ignore a judge’s order and actually have something bad happen as a result?

  8. It is my belief that two high school peers should be able to date each other. My boyfriend was a senior in high school when I was a freshman; no one had a problem with it. Not my parents, not his, not anyone at the school or our church. The law needs to be changed to protect high schoolers from simply wanting to form relationships with each other. It’s a perfectly normal and healthy aspect of being a teenager.

  9. Sometimes I feel that way about my parents. Who, by the way, happen to be different genders. Look, many people have these kinds of complaints about their parents. Doesn’t mean it’s exclusive to or specific to same-gender parenting.

  10. Since when is an 18 year old peer to a 14 year old. I worked in schools with teens for years. I never knew any 18 year old that considered themselves a peer to a 14 year old.

    Secondly, when did dating equate with ‘sex’.

    Some parents don’t have problems with a ‘date’ with this range of age (most do). They most often have a problem with a sexual relationship with this age gap at these ages.

    Now, I worked with kids that had failed two grades or more. Many were 20 in their last year of school. Do you think it would have been acceptable for those 20 year olds to date, and have sex with, 13 year old juniors?

    That age range meets your “high schoolers” are peers rule.

  11. Does “Dating” automatically = having sex? My sister was having sex with her boyfriend when she was 16 and he was 18. It was her first sexual experience and she has always felt like she was pressured into it. Having “relationships” is possible for teens without having sex.

  12. I’m curious why you’re posing about “dating” on a thread which is not about “dating”?

  13. Having no actual fortitude, they reach for a substitute: a high count of filth in the vocabulary.

    Everyone knows filth should be doled out parsimoniously, so as to achieve the most effect, with the least expenditure.

  14. For anyone curious, this is in the introduction:

    Please note that we have chosen
    to use gender-neutral language in this resource. We recognize that replacing “he” and “she” with the gender-neutral “they” is grammatically questionable, but we hope you will overlook this in support of students who do not use “he” or “she” to identify themselves.

    Because… hurt feelings, or something.

  15. It’ll have to. The winds of my whims are changing, and illiterate, incoherent commenting no longer amuses me. *whack*

  16. Annika was generally more sparing in her use of the word “fuck” and was occasionally amusing. This troll is neither.

  17. For people who normalize homosexuality, only their perverted desires matter.

    And they claim they were born perverted, so how can they ever be blamed for anything?

  18. She doesn’t want to face the fact that if Roman Polanski had been 18 and raped that girl just the same, she would be his defender here and for every sexual exploiter out there.

  19. “Secondly, when did dating equate with ‘sex’?”

    It started when liberals debased sex more and more after the 70s/80s and began to think “hookups”, promiscuity, extramarital sex, teenage sex, adultery, porn, and homosexuality are all normal.

  20. Perhaps the person Adjoran is referring to is the one who also had sexual relations with a minor along with Paige, (see article by another poster) not Annamika the troll of many names.
