I wonder if there would be more or less outrage at Polanski if he'd raped someone of age since then articles wouldn't say he was in trouble for "sex with a minor" but instead for "forcible rape" (which is what it was).

I really think the flipside of when I argue about women's groups on campus inflating the number of rapes and administrations calling certain things which aren't rape rape, is that when someone is actually a rapist then i think we need to treat them as we would say Saddam's sons who torture and kill people for fun.
