On the whole, the real Sweden is probably a lot more interesting than your fantasy Sweden.

I agree with you, but I do see a problem between a teacher of 32 and a student. However the problem here is not with sex so much as the difference between the punishment for women hanindg a boy an opportunity for sex and a male teacher offering that same oportunity to a girl of 16.

There is little difference IMO

Yet men are punished much more severely.That is wrong.

I have a friend who was a teacher and he told me many tales of girls in High School looking for good grades and flashing him from their front row seats.It’s a temptation they should be wary of, but if the girl is 16 is it rape? I think not.

Lust aside, does this 32- year old have problems forming relationships with people her own age?

Yeah as the dad of a gorgeous daughter, I gotta agree. I'm convinced that it's evidence of God's sense of humor to give me such a daughter. Because every kid who walked up to the front door when she was in high school (she is now 30) that reminded me of ME (at that age) I summarily kicked off the property. Well, not always, lol. But I always did hand out this little ditty: 10 Rules to Date My Daughter. Much to my daughter's chagrin! But I secretly think she liked that I did that, too.

You do realize that Sweden and Switzerland are two different countries, right?
