Female teachers often treated differently when they have sex with underage students

Female teachers are often treated differently in the media than male teachers who have sex with underage students. [...] A 2004 U.S. Department of Education survey of 2,500 students in grades 8 through 11 found that 13 percent of reported incidents involved a female educator and a female student. 6.7 percent of American students report some type of sexual contact with teachers or other school employees during their school careers. Overall, 4.5 million American students were subjected to sexual misconduct by school employees between kindergarten and 12th grade.
