Thou shall not commit adultery- but I am not concern with this now.
But the defense of RApe cases WE know rape concerns with one without giving consent or forced. CAn rape also be when two people not given consent?
My law class there is no defense in rape cases for having sex with a minor. If adult knows or doesn’t know that who he is having sex is a minor, there is no defense. My problem is, what if two minor who have both given consent have sex, but one parent decides to press charges to him? Both are minors, who the punishment should be? How to be punished? ARe should we let them off easy and sent them to juvenile .
And a new thought, thou shall not covet your neighbor’s wife.
Isn’t with the consent, that woman belongs to someone, is that consider rape. OR is it cheating and he should not be punished, but be punished and be beaten up by the husband or boyfriend.
I wish, one day, one parent will press charge on the illegal minors of having sex. The realization of 1 or 2 commandments of God will be reveal.
A charge of rape isn’t concerned with whether or not the defendant gave consent, their consent is implicit in the fact that the rape occurred. Someone must have wanted to do it, because it happened.
As for minors, I don’t think that statutory rape charges apply if both are minors. I know that in Canada it varies by the age of the partners. There are different guidelines in different jurisdictions but I have never heard of a case where a minor would be charged with statutory rape for having sex with another minor close to their own age. (Of course, I’m referring to normal and healthy relationships here, not sexual assault.) In other words, a 17 year old sleeping with a 17 year old is not statutory rape. A 17 year old sleeping with a 12 year old might be, but it might also come under other sexual offences rather than statutory rape.
The notion of consent for sexual contact lies solely within the realm of the individual. They are the only one who can give consent for sexual activity no matter what their marital status is. The partner of a person has no input into the sexual consent behaviour of the individual.
The notion of the unique autonomy of individuals has been a hard fought battle, and we’re not there yet, especially for women. It is absolutely critical for the protection and health of women that they are the only masters of their bodies, and that not one other person in the world has any say in their ability to give sexual consent.
Either I am missing something, or the laws are unfulfilled.
consent does not matter? Rape only occer only when one did not gave consent, or forced, or involunatary. Right?
IF a adult have sex with a minor, the law says , there are no defense for that adult, he is charged with rape automatically.
Minority, is the issue.
I remember what my new question now. IS there really equality? If there is, why are children and adults do not have the right acess, I don’t think there is equality,yet.
but back to the case. I would like to see what would happen if the parents did press charges to a minor boy who have sex with their minor daughter. And see ther results. But I don’t think that would happen if pregnancy did not occur, or if occur they would drop the charges and say pay child support.
Well dan I think you’re asking two seperate questions here.
If an adult has sex with a minor, they have ipso facto, committed statutory rape which assumes that a minor cannot give consent to sex with an adult.
If a minor has consensual sex with a minor there is no rape, statutory or otherwise. However, if a minor rapes another minor, that individual would be charged with rape, although he or she would be sentenced and tried as a minor.
The inequality question is separate. About the world of adults, and children. And adults and children are humans, yet the present world denies their right of equal access.
about the rape cases, I do agree with you consent minor to another consent is no rape, however,I have yet to find a supreme court case or precedent about this issue. So I cannot take your interpretation.
