I don't care what you buy. The male is capable of getting the the underage girl pregnant. It is not true the other way around.
Besides, no one in this case was underage nor married.
You gonna tell me you didn't lust after any of your teachers.
LARRYG:
Are/were you in the military? Lately? This ain't two employees at the local Walmart we're talking about.
Is the potential for pregnancy the only concern here? So, if they use birth control or get lucky, its okay for an officer to screw not one, but TWO cadets?
News flash - cadet sleeps with cadet = automatic expulsion.
Age or marital status is really not the issue here. It is the senior-subordinate military relationship. We are not talking about punishing the cadets. The reg says that the senior member is responsible for any inappropriate conduct. This is a breach of faith. If I can't trust her not to sleep with the students, which I am pretty sure was covered early in the orientation to the academy, how can I trust her to follow the rest of your orders?
Should she offer to sleep with the UCMJ convening authority to reduce her punishment?
So these two cadets, assuming they get conmissioned, should look at any female they meet in the service as a potential partner for sex?
A couple of years ago, the military got VERY concerned about this issue, and essentially banned fraternization. It is punishable by incarceration under the UCMJ.
Lust after my teachers? 'Fraid not. All of them were over fifty (or looked it), and when I was in high school and college, even I wasn't that kinky.
I understand the sarcasm and juvenile humor here, and do my share of laughing.
I am just irritated at the lack of equity in the punishment and perception of triviality of this act.
END RANT.
