Maybe be was OK with that.
What was inappropriate: teacher -student relationship. But I don't believe that he was "abused".

Big outrage when older woman has sex with a young boy, but very few bat an eye when an old man has sex with a young woman.

You're making this out as if this was a mutually pursued relationship. 17 year old males are more "down for whatever."

Why do they continue to do this knowing how much trouble it can get them into? And why are the teachers always good looking?

Some teen boys do whisper and snicker about MILFs, yes. I'm not sure, but I suspect that ridiculous TV show about "cougars" (from an earlier era, at this point) fed some teen boys' fantasies, and maybe it became a trend of sorts.

There's also an odd trend going on with GenZ, some members of whom approach women of all ages. In some cases it's a bit extreme; even some of our members here have reported being hit on in their 60's by men in their 20's or so. One former C-D member I email with told me a few months ago, that some guy started hitting on her, and she shouted back at him (this was in public, so she wanted to make it clear that his attention wasn't welcome), "I'M 72!! ", and he yelled back, "I'm 28, so what?!"

I don't get it. But this almost seems to be a thing. Does anyone have a clue what's going on? It's mystifying, but I keep reading and hearing about this kind of thing. Are these-- guys with no options among women their age, or something?

I think many of us forget the culture in high school.

A 17 yr old boy has hormones racing, and a "MILF" teacher would be a fantasy for them.

In high school, I remember when a new substitute teacher came. She was freshly graduated from teachers college and very attractive. ALL the guys were "hoo'ing and haa'ing" about her. All the top jocks were talking about her sexually, etc.

The typical 17 yr old would "jump" at the chance to be with a woman, especially one who is experienced and shows interest.

My guess is that this teacher was "lonely", maybe top ranking hubby is married to his career and never home. Maybe she doesn't feel attractive anymore, so when some young guy shows interest, she can't resist.

What she did is simply wrong. Especially with the teacher - student relationship / trust broken.

But to imply that the 17 yr old guy is a victim seems a bit of a stretch. If this was a purely sexual relationship, then he was probably more than a willing participant.

Ask any man if they had a "tryst" with a high school woman teacher... "would that be traumatic"?

I'm betting most of them would brag about it, instead of being hurt by it.

When i was in high schools the boys were interested in the hot high school girls...maaybe college. No one was interested in anyone's mothers....i also think mothers look different today than i was in high school (90's). There's a lot more effort that women put into their appearance to look younger it seems.

I graduated high school in 2004... We definitely had the hots for some of the teachers. I recall one in particular during my Junior and Senior years. Yes, we liked her that much that we all still remember her 20 years later.

Cool let me know when 45 year old men can bang 17 year old girls and not get a 15 year sentence.

I was friends with a woman who told a story about a teacher she was having sex with in high school. He would buy her beer and they would have sex and she remarked that to that day it was some of the best sex she ever had in her life. She was not traumatized in the least, and looked back on it with nostalgia. That doesn't mean it wasn't wrong, or that it's not wrong even if a boy does high five his buddies afterwards.
