witches some serious jail time? The government takes everything women do and just says that it's ok; well if we did that with both sexes then there'd be no one in jail. As the vast majority in jail are men then that's sexism; and thank fcuk, sexism's no longer allowed.

Its a bit more complicated than that. I think that both men and women have an equal propensity to abuse children, but you are right, women tend to get away from it, but men are always jailed. In western countries anyway. There is a presumption that women are not as criminally minded as men which is complete BS. I am a survivor of domestic violence so I know what I am talking about. In my case the women were the problem and they were never called to account for their behaviour. I got in the sh*t, however when I tried to report the abuse and not many people believed me and tried to criminalise me. 2 separate periods, my mother and 2nd the mother of my daughter. The 2nd situation almost cost me my life and went on for 6 years, including 2 years after I got out, and even when i was trying to get help I was still regularly assaulted, I even had a contract taken out on me and I was being harrassed by the Police. I finally managed to get it stopped but it was a really dangerous situation. The perpetrator still received no censure and its her that's ended up with all the resources and opportunities. If I was a little bit less intelligent I probably would have done an Israel and killed her and a lot of other people over it, but i have way too much respect for myself. So I was never imprisoned and I managed to protect my daughter.

It is true that the majority of sexual crimes against minors is performed by males there are still females that do the same. Mary Kay Letuerno was one of the first to gain nation wide notoriety.
And while I do believe that women do perform more of the physical abuse it seems to me more due to the circumstances they find themselves in. More women are single with children than men, more women have been either sexually assaulted or abused by age 10. And many of the children in the last 20 years have grown up without a father.
I still do agree that there is a double standard when it comes to sentencing women. For a example the " Hot " school teacher that sexually abused that boy. Didn't get very much time while if it had been a male teacher they would have gotten much longer.
Crimes should be weight according to severity, frequency and Situation. Not sex. Anyone who abuses or sexually abuses a child should get convicted. Regardless of Male or Female.

That is not accurate. The majority of Juvenal sex crimes are committed by pedophiles and are males. Child abuse is usually done by women and the main concern is to get the child to safety which is usually done the minute it is reported whether it is true or not. I am afraid what you have proposed here is not factual for the most part. At least you are concerned though and that is a good thing. Have a great day!!

Do something for your children: cook for them, clean for them, wash them. You, man have to change and be more involved with childcare. The ideology of good mother is in society very strong, because in majority man are not involved in children's life but more in career. So bad mother is better than nobody (a father who can't do housework or care for children).
