Eliminate the phrase ‘carnal knowledge of any female, not his wife, who has not attained the age of 16 years’ and substitute a federal, sex-neutral definition of the offense . . . . A person is guilty of an offense if he engages in a sexual act with another person, . . . [and] the other person is, in fact, less than 12 years old.

She called for making the statement gender neutral but didn't even make it ten words in. I guess it is okay to be sexist as long as you are assuming only men can abuse children.
