To Catch a Predator - Hot Teacher

thus perpetuating the double standard where if it's a male teacher and female student, it's horrible, but if it's a female teacher and male student, we're all giving him hi 5s.

I think the point of the video is to mock the double standard. Reversing the sexes changed the perception because there's no longer a "damsel in distress" vibe. People are more apt to acknowledge the sexual autonomy of men as agents acting of their own free will, and from that perspective Chris Hansen becomes ridiculous. Anglophone countries' ages of consent of 16-18 are higher than most of continental Europe's 14, and I suspect it's something to do with Victorian fear and loathing of sex. Certainly law almost never gets made on the basis of empirical data such as psychology research. Age of consent can be justified as a tradeoff between the quantity of foolish people below the age who will do things they later regret, and the quantity of unfoolish people below the age whose freedom will be harmed. Government should be circumspect about protecting people from their own free will.

The point is the willingness of the parties involved (which in this case was related to the adult being hot. And I suppose the hotness of the adult made the crew less likely to disregard the stated preference of the young man because they could more easily see themselves in his shoes). The point is that when both people are old enough and mentally competent enough to have sexual desires and fulfill them responsibly, government should stay out of their bedrooms except in cases of violence or coersion. And when in doubt, government should err on the side of liberty over safety.
