    I’m glad that “rape” is in the headline. Too many try to sugar coat. “Sex with an underage…” etc.

        No its because it’s a he, it’s usually “sex with a minor/student” if it’s a woman perpetrator and rape if it’s a man

            Wait is that not what you were trying to say? Systemic, institutionalized racism results in headlines that are less favorable to black folk? Which I agree with (even if it means making the headline more ’accurate’)
