A 13-year-old student was expelled from a Louisiana middle school after hitting a male classmate who she said created and shared a deepfake pornographic image of her, according to her family’s lawyers.

      Well, he was charged with 10 crimes, she was charged with nothing, so I wouldn’t conclude that she ultimately got the worst of it.

      The expulsion was almost certainly unfair (though details on why expulsion over much more typical punishments for this sort of thing in a middle school are completely absent, which I find strange), but it can be a lot more easily ‘undone’ than the criminal charges.

      Because theyre girls and are inherently sexual by gender, plus boys are a protected class

        Even a boy hitting a boy/girl who had been bullying them for months would be punished harsher than the one tormenting them.

      The girl’s father makes it clear that “boys will be boys”.

      “Honestly, I have no ill will towards that young man or his family. Kids are kids, and they do dumb things just like adults do. So, especially at that age, they don’t comprehend the severity of what they do,” Daniels said.

        Yeah, you can tell how clear he makes it by his overall statement being completely ungendered, the moment he’s not talking about this boy specifically:

        Kids are kids, and they do dumb things just like adults do. So, especially at that age, they don’t comprehend the severity of what they do.

        How exactly is the above sentence favoring boys over girls in any way? I also don’t see him criticizing his daughter for the actions she took, either.

        I think you just want there to be misogyny, to confirm your biases.

        That father is either a far far better person than I am, or an idiot. I’d be fucking furious.
