Letter: The sex of the older seducer is not the issue

Chris Maume's story sat uncomfortably beside your front page article, "Body in the sea thought to be child porn teacher" (3 August). Why is a man caught with indecent photographs of children denigrated in this way (the inference being that he is a paedophile) while a woman who actually has sex with a child is portrayed as a latter-day Mrs Robinson and some sort of feminist heroine?
