too good to pass

Below is an exerpt from a news article "Teachers in molest claims" (The Star, Friday 15 August 2008) written by NELSON BENJAMIN.
=================================

In the other case in Kluang, several Year 6 pupils lodged separate reports after being molested by their 27-year-old teacher, allegedly since March this year.

In one case, the teacher had offered a 12-year-old pupil a ride in his car to attend Friday prayers but took him to a secluded area instead and molested him and tried to sodomise him.

The boy managed to fight him off and demanded to be sent home.
=================================

Well... you might have formed your own responses to this article already. But, let me give mine anyway. A 12-year old boy managed to fight off a sodomy attempt by a 27-year old male teacher.
(1) the age gap is 15 years. Not a 23 vs 61 years difference exactly. But, in the former case, one is a boy and the other is a man.
(2) the boy is in a very vulnerable situation. Teacher-student and adult-child dyadic combo would put the child at the mercy of the allegged assailant. Whereas, being a volunteer for an election campaign, one is hardly risking much by refusing to follow the whims of the elder person.

So, my conclusion is that this BOY is more of a MAN than that 23 year old XY-cromosome bearer.

Of course, this conclusion would be invalid if:
1) the boy is actually bigger than the teacher
2) Doraemon came to the rescue of this boy at the right time
3) the boy can morph into a Power Ranger
