Yes, a 15 or 16 year old will consent to sex with a 34 year old adult at times...and that is why it is the responsibility of the 34 year old adult to not have sex with them. And that is why it is a crime, because they are expected to not take advantage of a child.

I apologize for calling you a feminist. I forgot there's a certain mentality that would consider that an insult.
No it didn't really. Pete chose to sleep with a girl who I'm sure he knew was a minor. I'm sure he wasn't forced into it. But splitting hairs between a 15 and 16 year old being any kind of real difference is silly.
Dude, I see concepcion talk on this board like all the time.

Since there are no teams on the moon, I guess South Korea's far enough from Cincinnati to satisfy me.

I didn't say it was an insult. I'm just not seeing how it is feminism, I think it's more along the lines of common sense and decency.

I think it does. You have to draw a bright line somewhere on this.
And splitting hairs between 14 and 15 is silly. And so is 13 and 14. And 12 and 13. Where do you draw the line? The law decided it was between 15 and 16.
Totally agree. Again, it's not what Pete or any other 34 year old should be doing behind closed doors obviously. It's just not what I see when someone throws out "rape." That's a loaded word and accusation.
That's why it's messed up. Yeah it's to some degree an "arbitrary" cutoff, but as mentioned earlier mostly to protect teenagers from being labeled as sex offenders for having sex with another teenager. Grown ass men shouldn't be trying to sleep with the youngest legally possible girl in the first place, don't try to toe right up to the limit and you won't have these problems.

Pete Rose sleeping with another woman while he's married makes him a bad guy.
Sleeping with a minor makes him a scumbag.
Sleeping with a 15 year old, technically makes him a criminal.
So it's worth noting, sure.

Obviously you don't have kids. The difference between 12 and 13 to 15 and 16 is massive. Physically, mentally, everything. 15 to 16? Not so much.
If you want to draw an arbitrary line, just make it 18 like most everything else.
Aside from making a large percentage of high school senior/college freshman boys felons, this seems fine to me.
I guess my point is, the difference between each individual "next age" is almost meaningless. But you've got to draw the line somewhere. And for whatever the reason, it was drawn at 16 a long time ago. So, yeah, don't go there, adults.

Well that would be something they'd have to consider before they took the plunge. Might be better off. Plus when I was 17-18, I had no idea what I was doing anyway. I thought I did, but believe me, I didn't. The girls didn't either.
