Mmmmmm, a difficult one, indeed.
Just to thicken the soup, over here, we have the tribal culture of where girls, as young as 14, are sold into wifeary, IE sold, by the parents, for a suitable amount (can be cattle) to a man as his wife.....
OK back to the point.
Pedophillia is one thing. This is immoral and should be sanctioned, definatly.
An older - younger relationship is another. My personal opinion? I have no problem with this, provided no law is broken.
Including, and let's be very clear here, no moral law either.
This includes mental ability, particurlarly that of the younger, or any other form of coersion, manipulation, force, threat or other means.
If any of the above is part of the equasion, it is morally unsuportable, and therfore, to me, very wrong.
It is such a mirky area, and each case is different.
I have openly supported one such case here on GS, yet to another, I said run for the hills, based on the details given.
What 2 consenting people get from a relationship is there business, not mine.
Who the hell am I to judge? 2 people are happpy, leave them be.
Since "youth"is under discussion, and not old age
A mature, cognisent 16 YO is quite appropriate, whereas an immature, non-cognisent 25 YO would be as in-appropriate as a pre-pubecient child.
Our country has just de-criminalised child sex.
This does not mean that sex with children is de-criminalised.
This means that sexual contact, which includes kissing, touching and fondling between minors of similar age is not a criminal offence.
This means that if one person is over the statuary limit and the other is below, but of similar age, sex and sexual contact is no longer a criminal offence.
Under the previous law, a 16YO boy, who kissed his 15YO girlfriend was a sex offender.
Food for thought????
