“In 1991, a Kansas State Court ruled that a seventeen-year-old babysitter was guilty of statutory rape when she had sex with the thirteen-year-old boy she was caring for. The absurd thing is that the Kansas Courts also ruled that the thirteen-year-old rape victim was required to pay child support for the baby that resulted from his rape. The appeals court affirmed the decision of the lower court and ordered the young boy to pay the portion of the child support that the lower court had forgiven (State of Kansas). The baby sitter could have chosen an abortion, but the victim of rape has no choice if he is a male. This is not an isolated case; in fact, this ruling has become a precedent for many similar cases. “
