Jacob,

Further: When a 30-year-old man has sex with a 13-year-old girl, the law calls this rape. And it doesn't matter if the girl said it is consensual. It doesn't matter whether the man is gentle, caring, provides for the girl's housing/feeding/clothing, sends her to dance classes and piano lessons, says he loves her, assumes responsibility for any resulting children. The law still calls it rape. It is rape, because the law assumes, simply and solely based on the disparity in power between the two, that the act could not have been consensual, that the act is exploitive.

Were you surprised by the PC Hollywood crowd giving Roman Polanski a standing ovation last night? I was.
