Traube said there is often a double standard in such cases. Girls who become involved with their male teachers are sometimes thought of as sluts, she said, while a boy is sometimes hailed as the campus stud. But the emotional trauma for either sex, she added, can be just as devastating.
Nice how the commentator turned it into a feminist issue. The double standard is the severity of the sentence a female vs male teacher will receive. In BC we had a case where the female teacher was given house arrest, which allowed her to keep living with her student. Since the student was no longer her student, and now above 16, that was not seen as a problem. With men it's "hang the despicable bastard."
