A guidance counselor from a West Los Angeles high school faces sexual assault charges after she allegedly had a relationship with one of her students earlier this year.
On Thursday, the LA County District Attorney charged Julie Elizabeth Tichon with three felony counts of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor more than three years younger and one felony count of oral copulation of a person under 18.
She faces a maximum of six years in state prison if convicted as charged. She pleaded not guilty during her arraignment on Thursday. The court released her on her own recognizance as she waits for her next court date on Nov. 1.
According to the media, women never rape. They either are raped, or have sexual relationships, but lamestream media has decided for everyone that women themselves never commit the act of rape.
Statisticay they are less likely to rape someone, including statutory rape, but it’s always stupid to deal in absolutes. Same is true of mass shootings, domestic violence, etc., it can happen but it’s less likely.
That said, it’s important to believe rape victims, including those who were raped by women. It’s not just the media in that regard, though, and especially when men are the victim-- it’s especially hard for them to speak out. How many viewers who hear of 16 year old boy being raped by their female teacher and go “nice”? It’s certainly a double standard.
Statistics say women are far more likely to develop breast cancer than men, but I imagine if a man contracted breast cancer, people would still call it what it is, say they have breast cancer, attempt to treat it, and move on; not try to tiptoe around calling it breast cancer, equivocate about how men can’t be victims of breast cancer because of some bizarre ad hoc definition of breast cancer being exclusive to women, change the medical definition of breast cancer to not include men instead inventing a separate disease with a heavily euphemized name, joke about how they probably enjoy it, accuse them of lying, and fail to give it a similar level of medical attention that it would get if a woman had breast cancer.
The breast cancer part is interesting because it’s a similar problem. Men aren’t usually targeted by early detection campaigns, and are less likely to seek help so they are more likely to die from it.
