    <description>&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;http://www.theage.com.au/news/national/the-harm-when-women-prey-on-boys/2006/03/17/1142582526948.html?page=fullpage&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;If women are treated more leniently, it may be that there is a pervasive view that no real harm is done. &lt;STRONG&gt;But there is growing evidence that not only are young male victims of female sexual abuse severely affected, but that they are also at higher risk of going on to become abusers themselves.&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;"When you look at these men who have been abused by females, and compare them to the men abused by males, in terms of psychological function, they were doing as badly as the men abused by males," says Dr Patrick O'Leary, a senior lecturer in social work at the University of South Australia.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;O'Leary, who conducted Australia's biggest study of male victims of sex abuse, says that having been sexually abused by a woman was for men a higher risk factor towards becoming a sexual offender than being abused by another male.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;A study sponsored by the Public Health Agency of Canada, titled&amp;nbsp;&lt;I&gt;The Invisible Boy&lt;/I&gt;, made similar findings. Citing four research papers, the report said, "&lt;STRONG&gt;there is an alarmingly high rate of sexual abuse by females in the backgrounds of rapists, sex offenders and sexually aggressive men (and) male adolescent sex offenders abused by 'females only' chose female victims almost exclusively".&lt;/STRONG&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;O'Leary says that while sexual abuse of boys and young men has been acknowledged over the past 15 years, it has normally been in the context of institutions such as churches or youth groups. "When we think of males being abused, we mostly think of the abuser being male pedophiles. Certainly some males may not have a consciousness that what's happened is wrong or abuse … some of the effects really can be seen in subsequent relationships. I remember some men saying they had difficulty relating to women of any age. It taught them to sexualise all relationships with women."&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;

      <description>&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Depends on the couple really.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Lots of mature 15yo's. Lots of immature 21yo's. So maybe they are perfect for each other.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Is the age of consent 16 in NSW for boys?&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;Depends if they are dating or "dating" I guess but a 21 yo should know better or either she is immature or he is mature...... either way it could be psychologically damaging for a 15 yo.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;It's against the law for starters, age of consent.&amp;nbsp; See here for state laws http://www.aifs.gov.au/cfca/pubs/factsheets/a142090/index.html&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;BR /&gt;
&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;In some states being 2 years older is also an issue.&amp;nbsp; Seriously a 21 yo and a 15 yo, one has to ask what is he/she sees in a child.&amp;nbsp; It predatory behavior and anyone with an ounce of common sense and maturity will see it as that.&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P class="mce-p"&gt;&amp;nbsp;parents or care givers have a duty to protect their children .If they put them at risk of abuse or ignore abuse, fail to protect them from harm they are being neglectful .&lt;/P&gt;</description>
