@CrispyBullet I have a problem with that double standard…It isn’t even only about the media in this case and is not limited to the US. Even the justice system gives slap on the wrists to women who molest or have sex with an underaged male. In a more liberal nation (I believe it was within the UK) there was a recent case where a female was slapped on the wrist after a judge allowed the father of the offended child’s account to stand as evidence that his “son wanted it” despite the son actually testifying (before the father) that he did not want it and indeed felt violated. Now that was some interesting crap! It is a protection that essentially does screw over men who do indeed feel violated.

@bernie12 I completely agree. As you pointed out with the case about the father, it’s not just the justice system but also the (non-victimized) men who perpetuate this.
