I had the same violently disgusted reaction when I first read the Polanski story... I hope they put his head on a pike. I've never watched his movies (before, when I caught a glimpse of fragments while flipping channels I was always bored to death and after I heard about his background I actively avoid his shit whenever his name pops up).
Gender should have nothing to do with it, and to me it doesn't. Maybe it is because I see kids first as vulnerable and not as girls being sex objects, so the thought of them being attacked is equally sickening. A little girl and a little boy are both not able to really fight back in these situations, I don't see why any could be considered any less heinous.
