18-year-old girl rapes 13-year-old boy at Church of Christ in Tennessee

Absolute nonsense. Children, preteens, young teens, middle teens will all experiment and explore sexually. I am surprised how many uptight, frigid, rigid, dried up prunes and sexually inert beings exist on this site. Hell has a special place for those who will punish this young woman for her innocent and natural physical love. I cherish the memory of a certain 19 y.o. young woman who "helped me out" when I was 15. I had been hoping for a close encounter for a couple of years.

Rape laws are about protecting women and girls from FORCED sexual intercourse. Other activity should be called something else. This young woman did not rape this boy. There is no such thing as female on male rape. At most She should be shamed for her lustfulness.

So if a 40 year old woman, a friend of the family let's say, goes into a 12 year old boys bedroom one night, quietly performs sexual acts on him while he's asleep, or outright climbs on top of him and performs sexual intercourse, then to you that isn't rape?

Completely different scenario than the case at hand. No it is not rape. A woman cannot rape. Maybe sexual assault. This sounds like Jewish logic to try to use a scenario that happens in real life about as often as pigs flying.

If that isn't rape then what is?

'Natural physical love' sounds like something certain people say to justify thoughts they know they shouldn't have.

There has to be some natural instinct for sexual behavior besides your statute laden bureaucratic gobblygook. Just for the record I don't consider homo's to be natural or rewarded by nature. Forced Sodomy on children should be met with death.
