For the 16th bazillionth time, if Letourneau was a guy & the minor was a girl, etc., etc., ad nauseum.
The only slight surprise is MkL's prisonmates making her life miserable. I didn't think they had it in 'em! <|:-)~~
Gawd, can you image being the father of two kids before you're 14? The poor kid's life is ruined. It would have been bad enough to have had sex with him, but to conceive?
I know a lot of guys are snorting, "Why couldn't I have had a teacher like that?" Think of the kind of adjustments he's going to have to make trying to have normal relationships with girls his own age. Would you want your daughter to go to the prom with him? To marry him?
Man, you sure pegged it.If the roles in this were reversed the media would portray this soooo differently.Or if MkL was a man...
I think the sexual problem between students and teachers is a lot more widespread than we realize, and has been going on a long time. I found out a lot of things about students I knew in 8-10th grades who had affairs with teachers. Most of the time the student was female and the teacher was male... and it was the female student who was practically stalking the male teacher. And they did sneak around and see each other and some of the gals even had sex with their older male teacher. Must be kind of like a "celebrity worship" thing with the female students chasing the older male teachers - because they weren't hot looking guys.
And I am talking about affairs between young girls and older male teachers back in the 1960s. 1964-1969. It was very widespread. I had suspected some of these girls because of the way they flirted with the teachers, and one would even go up and give the teacher a back/neck massage in 8th grade history class. These gals have confessed in later years to having sex with these teachers. Must be partly raging hormones of puberty getting in the way of clear thinking!
