I don't agree with US law about Statutory rape.

Yeah, but there's GOTTA be a benchmark where you say "this is abuse"
I disagree with the grey area cases.........but it does seem like a lot of the age gap cases, are about 20 something men who are sexually abusing teens.....I mean GOD, most teens are still learning about relationships and things like that. I remember when I was a teen I thought I knew EVERYTHING, and I look back, and shake my head at how naive and sheltered I was then! I know I read somewhere that a majority of teen pregancies are fathered by older men, who apparently want to take advantage of girls.....which is VERY SICK. Yes, I know age is just a number, but it does seem like a lot of those 20something guys are in a relationship b/c they can pressure a teen girl to have sex easier.

Oh man, the sense of taboo is increasing! Are we trying to become MORE prudent?

Boult, no, it's not about being MORE Victorian. It's simply acknowleding that most
teens aren't emoitonally ready for a relationship with an older guy.
