Exactly, Mojo. The power differential should be the deciding factor in weighing the crime, rather than the sex of the participants. If you consider a same sex power differential (i.e. a priest and a male child) then the "horror" returns.
But.... there is always a but. Bottom line, most of us still believe that a woman cannot rape a man or male child. The double standard begins there and simply is reflected in our legal system.
