I know Zeke was held back so he's technically legal, but she was operating at least within an ethical gray area
Famke Janssen is a molestor

Let's not pretend that many of us would feel violated if Famke put the moves on us

shareThat's my face as I judge Famke Janssen
shareAnyone over 18 is legally entitled to fuck anyone else over 18 who consents. Deal with it, prude.
[And that's only referring to regions that set the legal limit at 18. Some places it's lower. Never heard of anywhere setting it higher]
Faculty having sex with students is against the rules everywhere I've seen, regardless of age.
shareIt's unethical and gross for anyone in a position of authority to use that power to threaten and intimidate an underling to coerce them into sex. Doesn't matter if they're teacher/student, boss/employee, uncle/niece, priest/altar boy, whatever.
But is that what you saw in this movie? Was Zeke even slightly threatened or intimidated by Burke's school authority?
My heart bleeds for the guy.
shareAh, the nineties.
shareYou're talking about the character, Ms. Burke. Famke Janssen, the actress, has done nothing wrong.
shareIt's not rape, but I'd say that's a breach of ethics for a teacher.
She'd probably lose her license if it were made public.
AOC here in the UK is 16, but a teacher found having sex with a student would lose their job, and most likely be prosecuted. Under the 2001 Sexual Offences Act it is against the law for a teacher to have a sexual relationship with a pupil over the age of 16 who attends their school. However this does not apply to a teacher who has a similar relationship with a pupil over 16 at a different school.
I think that's sensible. Too much potential for abuse of authority in a situation like that.
shareI’m sure ‘Zeke’ will get over it.
