Do you think men like these are hypocrites or prejudiced?

A few years ago, my friends underaged son had sex with a much older woman who used him and took advantage of him.

My friends husband tried to protect the pedo woman by not calling police, but my friend called the police anyway and got her to prison for 4 years.

I thought her husband was a disgusting man and blinded by his hormones. He would go mad if his daughter was involved with some older man.

  • How old was the son? I ask because there is a big difference between, say, 6 and 16, and if the boy was (or is) the latter, then they may have not thought it was such a big deal.
    l don't know, I wasn't there, I don't have all the details to make any kind of judgement here.

    • But they would have thought it was a big deal if it was a 16 year old girl? If you can't answer the question, then what is the point of your comment honestly?

    • Well I think that is my point, the point being that there is simply not enough information to go on here. You're asking a question that cannot be honestly addressed, because important details are lacking.

    • Most people could answer this question perfectly, so I guess it's only a problem for few individuals

  • Hypocrites.

  • I think it’s prejudice but it is also based on the different nature between men and women. Therefore it’s not hypocrisy because a girl being taken sexually advantage of is on a different plain.
    I understand the fathers hesitation to call the police. That is why you need a good mother to balance the prejudice decisions made by the husband and vice versa.

    • You are literally prejudiced because you think taking advantage of a boy is different to taking advantage of a girl. You are just prejudiced and a hypocrite like the husband

    • As I said a man taking sexually advantage of a girl is different than a woman taking advantage of a boy. Hypocrisy is when the situation is the same. You could argue that me seeing the two case as different is prejudice but I see it as a result of boys/males having a different nature than women

    • But to me it is the same, so to me you are a hypocrite and a disgusting person for wanting to protect the woman and not call police on her like you said in your post

  • if your daughter or son 16 or 17 there's no reason to they old enough make decision of who to sleep with if my son or daghter was like 13 14 i would thoiugh.

  • Yes they are hypocrites it's sad that the older woman took advantage of that younger guy just makes no sense

    • Agree

  • I don't know all the details so I can't really give a well thought out opinion.

    Generally speaking, the law is there to protect people from harm. But I know having once been a teen male, I would never have been harmed by sex with an older woman. That is ME.

    But the law is the law...

    • What do you mean by all the details? What if there is no harm but what about the adult?

    • Also you didn't answer the question... If the husband would feel completely opposite with his daughter wouldn't that make him a hypocrite and prejudiced?

    • Yes it would be hypocrisy to feel that its ok for the son but not the daughter.

  • If the boy was not of legal age it was correct that the older woman was sent to prison regardless of what her husband thought. Even if the boy was of legal age it is easy to be taken advantage of at that age and the older women should have known better.

    • Yeah, he was mad. For no reason. Awful husband in my opinion

    • Sadly there is no shortage of men like that.

    • I know it's horrible

  • I don't know hypocrite is the right word mam, but he was definitely wrong in protecting the woman.
    What's wrong is wrong and should not be allowed.

  • yea thats messed up

  • I saw from the replies that the woman was 40 but how old was the boy?

    • 16...

    • Answer the question?

    • Well ignoring whether or not it was legal in the eyes of the law... I do think that the guy was a prejudice hypocrite

  • It need to clarify that why he is protecting that lady? The reason should be known.
    And yes that man was wrong when he stop her wife from calling police. Whatever be the reason guilty should be punished.

  • I wouldn't call him a hypocrite. It seems to me that he wanted her to make the choice, instead of taking that choice away from her.

    • But isn't it hypocritical to do exactly what she would do if her daughter was in the situation?

    • *his

    • From what you're telling me his daughter was in that situation and she's the one that called. So no I don't think he's a hypocrite. all he did was just put the ball back in her court and let her decide what to do with her life and her future.

  • I guess the husband was trying to protect what he had.

    But she shouldn't of used the underage guy to begin with.

    • Protect what? A pedophile?

  • I know this is a thing with you, but age isn't everything. There are so many things that go on , you cannot control.
    I wonder if this young lad was happy the woman ended up in prison.
    This could well have distroyed that family. Near where I lived this happened and when the woman was released they ended up , setting up home together.

    • The adult should control themselves, they are responsible to stop being a sex predator

    • Where I live 18 is you are classed as not being underage. So do you have the same feeling if they have sex a Day before his or her 18 th birthday.

    • 18 is adult in most places

  • It was wrong of female to abuse the young boy

    • So you agree?

    • I guess I take that as a yes, thanks.

  • Yes double standards, your friend was right to call the cops,,,

  • 4 years is too much if the boy had consented for sex , I agree it is wrong from adult side but still.

    • Hmm not sure

    • Answer the question though

    • who knows what was the situation but it is general men generally forgive women, yes they are hypocrites.

  • It's a grey area for me...
    They should've had a serious talk with the son and see how he felt about it. If there's hints of trauma or he felt like he got taken advantage of then the older woman should face the consequences. If not then your friend just semi ruined a persons life, 4 years of prison might not necessarily stop her from doing that again with another underaged boy.
    She went off her emotions and most of the time logic > emotions.
    Everyone is different, some boys would've loved it other boys while others would feel traumatized and conflicted. I think things should be talked about before actions be taken.

    • No the woman preyed on him and used him, she was a sexual predator. Doesn't matter how he feels You seem like a hypocrite like the husband. Good luck advocating for female pedophiles. You are strange.

    • You're going based on your emotions and what the law says in your area. Laws aside or if it were in a country where age of consent is much lower and you grew up there you'd have a totally different mindset.

    • So you would say the same thing if it was a girl with some older man?
