Do feminists hate little boys, because it sure looks like they do?

An eleven year old boy will be going to prison for life without the possibility for parole for raping his teacher and stealing her car.

Source: http://www.guardian.co.uk/education/2005/mar/11/sc...

A twelve year old girl murdered her father, mother, and brother with a knife and she was sentenced to 5 years in prison.

Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richardson_family_mur...

So, if the Richardson family murders were committed by a young man; do you think he would have the same luxuries of being released from prison after 5 years and getting a university scholarships.

Women also murder men all the time and go to prison for less than 3 months (battered womans syndrome) mary winkler, etc.

Is it fair to say that feminists hate men and have brainwashed society into believing women are not responsible for their actions and they may do as they please, but men must suffer the consequences of what they do?

Update:

@Megan, your answer is laughable because I doubt you have even read my question or visited my link.

Typical feminist argument technique: personal attack.

When one does not know how to answer a question, or if they know they are losing they will start to personally attack the speaker. This just goes to show how dim witted yahoo feminists are.

    Well, in fairness, had the Richardson family murders been committed by a boy in similar circumstances (ie. with an adult accomplice), Canadian law would likely have treated him the same way. The Young Offenders Act limits the amount of time that can be spent behind bars for offenders under 18 years of age except under extraordinary circumstances.

    But I do suspect that if the girl had been a boy (and perhaps if the 8 year old child murdered had been a girl), instead of serving 4 years in a psychiatric institution, and 4.5 years under conditional supervision, it'd probably have been 5 years in a juvenile prison, and possibly the other 3.5 years in an adult prison...or at least in a halfway house!

    As for the British case...for a judge to sentence a boy to life in prison (even though apparently the sentence could be as little as 21 months???) for this...the reality seems to be that he is being treated more harshly than even adults who commit the same crime! That is ridiculous and absurd.

    The boy obviously needs treatment more than anything else...it sounds like he was abused as a child...and I guarantee you that if a girl under similar circumstances had, say, violently assaulted someone...she would have gotten a much lighter sentence...even if she had nearly killed them!

    In general, I don't dislike feminists, I dislike feminism. In much the same way I dislike the idea of equality between the sex's. It seems so futile to try and grow apples and oranges using the same methods, climate, and soil. Each sex has it's own individual needs, and as I do understand that a woman should not be treated as "less than a man" I do not agree with the idea that "men and women are equal", perhaps in value this is true. But to start there is a biological difference which defines our current roles in society, which is the human extension to herd or pack behavior.... Most know it as dominance. I agree with a lot of the specific efforts on the part of feminists. Right to vote, workplace equality (although once again, biological differences are irrefutable.), sexual and physical assault; these are all valuable liberties and rights that feminism have help advance. My disagreement and distaste with the feminist movement in general is perhaps based in rhetoric....specifically in the use of the word equality. Men and women are beings of distinct and intrinsic value, however, they are far from "equal". One does not have value over the next, but their nature, biochemistry, physiology, development, and perspectives are never going to sum up to exactly the same thing. The sexes should not be searching for equality, but rather empathy or better yet paralleled cooperation in which we recognize the value of what a women truly is "a female human". Equality is for our species, understanding belongs to the sex's....if that makes any sense.

    According to your article on the girl:

    Under the Youth Criminal Justice Act the name of the daughter could no longer be published in Canada after she became a suspect. Under the same act, twelve is the youngest possible age at which a person can be charged with a crime; convicts who were under fourteen years of age at the time they committed a crime cannot be sentenced as adults, and cannot be given more than a ten-year sentence.[21]

    On July 9, 2007, the girl was found guilty of three counts of first-degree murder in the killings.[22] On November 8, 2007, she was sentenced to the maximum penalty of ten years imprisonment.

    So, no. She got the maximum sentence any person could at that age. Sex didn't come into play.

    As for the boy, once again, from your article:

    ." Mr Justice Grigson said he was prescribed by law to set a minimum sentence that the defendant should serve before being considered for parole. He told the boy that he must serve at least 21 months but warned him it was likely he would serve much longer

    your observation is sad but true, many women use thier gender as an excuse for bad behavior. eg no one wants to belive spousal abuse is two ways and can be caused by the behavior of the abused partner eg your mate shows total lack of respect for you and the union and feels its thier right based on any silly reason. and yes millitant feminists hate all males forgetting life is a balance of both to make a beautiful whole. I Love being a woman and I thank my Dad for that

    Saying that men are being "put down" in society is a bit of a taboo, as if you mention it, feminists will jump on your back and claw your face off.

    Get the ADD and victim complex treated.

    I can't be bothered to read that disjointed rant.

    Learn to write, learn to make a coherent argument. This gets a failing grade.
