No fair! Sex in school leads to boy’s suspension, not girl’s
If you don’t think kids are growing up too fast (and society has no clue how to deal with it), take this story from Philadelphia, reported by the Philadelphia Daily News.
Walter Ransome, who’s all of 13, got caught in the stairwell of the Francis Pastorius Elementary School the week before Thanksgiving.
Was he sneaking a smoke? Nope, he was having sex with an eighth grade girl.
By all accounts it was consensual.
Walter, whose name was obviously released, has been suspended for at least 10 days. The girl, whose name was not released, did not get suspended.
Walter’s mom, Veronica Goss, wants to know why.
“I’m not going against the school board whatsoever,” she said. “Punish these children the way they are supposed to be punished, but don’t just punish one and not the other when they both were involved. That’s not fair.”
Goss said the 10 day suspension was reasonable, given Walter’s action, but what was not acceptable, she believes, is that the girl involved was allowed to stay in school.
“I know he was wrong, he knows he was wrong. That part is resolved,” Goss said.
“But how come the little girl is not wrong? She participated in a sexual act also,” Goss continued.
Walter, a B/C student, agreed.
“Yes, I think I should be suspended,” he said, “but I think she should be suspended too because she was in it too. All she had to say is she didn’t want to do nothing, then it just would have been over.”
Goss said that other boys involved in sexual activity have been suspended while the girls have not. And Walter added that two other boys who engaged in “touching” another girl the same day as his incident were also suspended, while the girl was not.
Maybe the school should just suspend all the boys. Problem solved.

Society is in desperate need to implement the Females as Property Movement ™.
There are many aspects to the Movement, too many to delve into here, but, for the good of society, the USA and for female and male happiness in general we must allow the dainty gals the opportunity to disengage from the male aspect of adult society and pursue their natural talents and abilities within the “female sphere” of life.
Yes… some females possess talents and abilities that allow them full access to adult society and should be allowed to do so.
However, the evidence is strong, that a large percentage of females lack the needed abilities to function in adult society and are happier when relegated to areas where their abilities are best suited.
A great disservice has been committed against femaleness and femininity by parts of society and culture convincing so many females that they are capable of being male-like and that happiness is to be found in defying the natural order of a two-gendered species.

Obbop: are you serious? When I read all men are create equal, I read people, you obviously read males, and maybe some people on the school board does as well.

“When I read all men are create equal, I read people, you obviously read males”
I do not base my beliefs upon one idea within one document.

Well this story is one of the reasons why a lot of females think they can get away with anything. There is no way the boys should be the only ones suspended. If they were raping the girls, yes the situation would be different. No such charges were filed so this case does not make sense. The school board is only making the lives for these children harder, not easier

The Females as Property Movement proclaims the vast majority of females are inherently “crazy” or at least certifiable mentally ill to some degree.
Curb your female, please.
Choose your own definition of “curb.”

yeah but if the boy was “touching” the girl, was she touching back?
