I can't quite find the bit where it says she was spared prison time because she was female. She received a suspended sentence because it had zero impact on the victim. In the case of the woman I knew, the victim, while initially willing, felt shame, depressed and socially isolated according to the judgement notes. There are varying degrees of criminality in all crimes.

Judges use their discretion all the time based on a number of different factors. It's very shallow analysis to say that she wasn't sent to prison, therefore it must be because she's female. Try looking a bit deeper.

I note the WA teacher's career has been appropriately extinguished still (just as the AFL execs have been) and she will still be recorded as a sex offender, which has severe ramifications for future employment. Her future has been completely gutted. Just because she didn't spend time behind bars doesn't mean she wasn't punished.

I've worked in organisations where without exception the CEOs have had their affairs with women inside the organisation. It's common as dog poo, and those who say it does not happen with CEOs and senior management have their heads in beachsand.

Most don't get caught!! That's the difference.

The latest term for male behaviour that deviates from some bizarre feminist dogma is 'toxic masculinity'. It is our fault Biffen. When will you understand this? You, my friend, are responsible for all of the world's ills. Shame on you, white, male patriarchal scumbag. Go Dees.

So you're the one that has been trolling Clementine Ford?

i knew a kid at school who had an affair with an older female teacher.

He suffered terribly

From giving way too many high fives.

That's not meant to be a rhetorical question by the way.

Interesting precedent set at the AFL.

From Caro article in The Age

"At the time Andrew Demetriou was appointed AFL CEO some 15 years ago, his partner and more junior colleague Symone was pregnant with his twins."

Carefully of biting the hand that feeds you Caro!

She's happy to drag an enemies family into a personal vendetta,which is a charming trait of hers.

    GOLDIE'S METTLE by Meggs

    On a perfect night for football at the home of the Redlegs, Norwood Oval, it was the visiting underdogs Melbourne who led all night and hung on to prevail in a 2-point nail-biter. In the previous round St Kilda had made it a tough physical game to help restrict Adelaide from scoring and so Mick Stinear set a similar strategy for his team. To win it would require every player to do their bit on the field plus a little bit of luck.  Fifty game milestoner Sinead Goldrick epitomised

    REDLEG PRIDE by Meggs

    Hump day mid-week footy at the Redlegs home ground is a great opportunity to build on our recent improved competitiveness playing in the red and blue.   The jumper has a few other colours this week with the rainbow Pride flag flying this round to celebrate people from all walks of life coming together, being accepted. AFLW has been a benchmark when it comes to inclusivity and a safe workplace.  The team will run out in a specially designed guernsey for this game and also the following week

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play
