I'm not saying that it's not wrong to have sex with underage children, the law is the law and it varies from state to state. Here in Michigan, you have to be 16 to be able to consent to sex...which I think is appropriate. And I think 18 is a good bench mark across the board for alcohol and military service...guns I suppose...but, that's a completely different subject, and with proper gun control laws shouldn't be a problem.
As for this specific topic...was she like havin' gang bangs at lunch? Where were these teachers when I was in school? God damn..
Oh, and I disagree about the men not having sex with young women...are you insane? This country glorifies pedophilia, we can't get enough of scantily clad 15 year old girls. |
a common joke i heard a lot growing up from different guy friends of mine yanno what great about a 16 yo girl, put her in pigtails and she looks 12.. meaning age to consent is 16 but make her look younger and your set... this is the mindset of alot of adults, i wont even look at a girl under 18 but then agian age is hard to tell these days so maybe i have... its sad when you have to ask for id before you start dating a girl...
i was being pretty sarcastic in my statment above about the alcohol and gun thing.
i dissagree with your first comment, i think they have always had the same maturity it just we percieved it differently in different time periods things were not morally or socially acceptable as they are these days...
my dad just recently told me a story about a friend of his in high school that used to get girls doing this....
he would take them out to the make out point, and he'd say this... now, one of two things are going to happen... a) your going to give it up and that be that, or b) your going to tell me no, and in that case im going back to school and telling everyone you did anyways. so you might as well just do it. the girl knowing that at that point in time her other peers at school wouldn't believe her, even though she was telling the truth.
i don't know about you, but thats pretty smart... i'd never have thought to try that when i was in high school, but that guy was taking advantage of his time period and how people reacted to things...
i think maturity as far as mental maturity goes is individually specific and a number such as age can't harbor whether one is mature or not.
