Tbf it seems pretty common internationally that women get lower sentences for the same crime regardless of any legal framework behind it.

Moreso if the crime was done with a man as the that woman was "most likely coerced".

As a gay dude in the UK the fact we have a specific MP for violence against women and children confuses me in that men suffer from way more incidences of violence - but what I get told is "yeah but men are doing the crimes mostly" aka a sexist judgement applicable to all men regardless of what sort of person they actually are.

Honestly, I'd rather be harassed for being gay than every join the heterosexual ecosphere; the interactions between opposite sexes are just ridiculous and illogical.
