First, what does frequency of a crime have to do with anything? Hate crimes prob have a greater ratio than 10 to one, should those who commit hate crimes get less time because its less frequent? Since hate crimes against Asians is less than gays, should that be considered in sentencing?

Secondly, that's an assumption. What evidence and what information do you have that would suggest that a minor of any sex has greater or lesser psychological consequences ? I'll even argue what does that have to do with statutory rape? Should we argue that if a victim is not psychologically damaged that there should be less jail time?

Third, that's just BS.

Finally, just BS, so every woman who's been raped but got lubed also wanted it? Because their body responded to the stimulation? Its stupid to think that statutory rape has anything to do wanting sex or being able to perform, it has to do with a minor not being in the position to reasonably consent to the action.
