Sadly if the day comes where we're mature enough to make this kind of decision, we'll have invented those holosex crowns like in Demolition Man and the old fashioned hunka chunka horizontal mambo will be a thing of the past.

teenagers should be allowed to have sex w/ each other just not with adults because of the power imbalance. which I'm p. sure is already how the laws work in most states making fun things (sex, booze, weed) illegal because you don't want teenagers doing them has literally never worked, and probably makes everything worse because breakin the law is cool. age of majority for everything including sex and booze should be 18, because people are gonna have to make their mistakes and learn responsibility eventually. might as well have it happen right after high school so they'll spend fewer of their adult years being worthless inept bumblefucks

i think weed should be legalized and all these television shows about adults smoking weed, being socially inept and acting like teenagers in general should be put on TV too so that teenagers will watch it and decide that acting immature is uncool and start taking their adolescent lives more seriously in a very cool, hip, unironic way.

I live in a country in which the age of consent is 16 and regularly visit another country in which the age if consent is also 16. having sex when I was 17 was pretty rad so I think this is a great thing

Age of consent is lower in countries where the average life expectancy is 20. Stay the gently caress away from those places. Thank you for the handy map.

I've thought of using reverse psychology when I have kids in their teens to make them straight A students. "No son of mine is going to study the night before a big test! There are teens drinking and smoking pot right now at the park, you march over there and join them!" "Shut up dad, I am going to stay home and ace the test! Gawd!" On topic, I am not sure if there is anyway to discuss the subject in question with anyone with out it getting awkward and uncomfortable for everyone involved.

Even the most reasonable and well though out argument against raising (or for lowering) the Age of Consent comes across as a disingenuous attempt to justify one's own predilections.

I suspect the solution is something exactly like what we have now, where it is illegal for adults to have sex with children, but with allowances (legal or social) for things like a 15 year old having sex with an 18 year old; people freak out so bad when teens get child porn charges for sexting each other and poo poo because it violates our unspoken understanding that kids will gently caress around with each other and young adults and a mixture of the current geriatrics running our judicial system dying and reform of our for-profit prison system will reduce the incidence of them as the technology becomes better understood by everyone. Consider this the end of the debate. Thanks everyone for coming.

Applewhite posted:Age of Consent is a somewhat arbitrary number. While it depends partially upon the onset of puberty, it has much more to do with societal standards of "emotional maturity." Currently, 18 is, for the most part, the age at which American society recognizes an individual has probably achieved that required level of emotional maturity. same Edit: No goku in poll? What a loving turd you are OP.
