Women Who Boys They Were Supposed to be Teaching (USA) The ladies don't do that sort of thing, surely? Well, that’s the conventional social narrative. But it is not true. The purpose of this list – and accompanying blog – is not to demonise women. Any idea that all women should bear the guilt of a few is just as preposterous as when the same unjust illogic is applied to men. The purpose of this list, and blog, is not even to cast stones at the guilty women named. Its true purpose is twofold: firstly it is to undermine the aforesaid illogic – namely that the guilt of a few can be laid at the door of the entire identity class. Indeed, firing artillery at identity politics in general is a valid objective. The second purpose is to attempt to penetrate the gynocentric carapace which protects women from valid criticism. Women are not all blameless angels; they are no better than men. For both sexes, some are admirable, some are badly flawed, even wicked, but most are averagely decent. So here is a list of around 275 women in the USA who have sexually abused boys with whom they were in the power relationship of teacher-pupil, downloaded from WND on 8/9/14, http://www.wnd.com/2014/08/39783/12/. In (some States of) the USA this is classified as rape – though it would not be called such in the UK. Note that in some States the is 18 rather than 16. However, the overwhelming bulk of these cases relate to boy or girl victims younger than 16. It is often an offence for a teacher to engage in sexual relations with a pupil irrespective of age. The same is true in the UK. Most of these women did not offend just once, but had offended many times with one or several boys. A couple of interesting things about this list of sex offenders. Firstly, they are virtually all white, with just a couple of exceptions. This is most unusual for a list of criminals in the USA. Blacks usually figure disproportionately in crime statistics in the US. But not in this case. The reason for this is not certain, but recall this list refers only to perpetrators who are teachers. This probably biases the sample massively towards white women. The other interesting thing is that these women offenders are not ancient hags in the main. They are relatively young (but not that young) and often very presentable looking. Yep, it's youthful, attractive, white women who are the rapists. Who would have thunk it? Could it be something to do with their upbringing? They think they are entitled to whatever they want, perhaps? I've added at the end some instances of women guards at detention centres sexually molesting / raping juvenile boys.
