Reply #112: Strange responses in this thread - apparently it's akin to pedophilia

based on her state law, but years past when she'd be able to legally consent where he come from. If they were 21 & 28, no one would worry about the age difference because they are both old enough to handle it.

But I'm wondering how many who are saying she's not old enough to make that decision now think she's old enough to go get an abortion without parental involvement if she had gotten pregnant with a boy her own age.

If she'd been the one charged with a serious crime like murder, how many think she should be tried as an adult?

The various opinions are really amazing. We'll trust her with a 2,000 lb vehicle but not her own body - unless she's already pregnant, so apparently she's old enough to make decisions about her womb, but not her vagina. In a few more months, we'll trust her to select this countries leaders and be able to carry a gun, even join the military and actually take others lives. But we still won't let her drink alcohol, and gawd forbid she want to partake of something she can grow in the garden next to the heirloom tomatoes.
