- This doesn't follow at all. While the law may very well have the
- effect of benefitting some parts of the homosexual community, I
- don't see any reason to believe that that was the intent of the law.
- Why not argue that the intent of the bill was to uphold Traditional
- Family Values (it is VERY VERY important that girls remain virgins,
- but boys are allowed to fool around)? Or that the intent of the bill
- was to take account of the fact that heterosexual sex between a young
- adolescent and an adult is not generally considered traumatic if the
- adolescent is male?
