I've never understood the use of the word "rape" for what I would assume was "consensual" sex between the 14yo and her, at least from his perspective as many of you have pointed out.
I do think sex with a minor should be illegal, and she did abuse her position as an authority figure, which I think should carry additional repercussions, but I don't think it should be on the same level as rape.
Yeah thats why they call it "statutory rape" not "rape". But I agree its not rape. Somebody somewhere really didnt like that it was happening and they wanted harsher punishments, so they convinced a legislator to make it rape.
