However, the more of these people that come out for who and what they are, the easier it will be to identify them. Let's hope every single one of them stands up and admits it so everyone can keep their kids away from them.

Rather have them out in the open than sneaking around some suburbian neighbourhood prowling on innocent children.

Anorexia nervosa?

What's all this freedom of speech pish you are all talking about. That is not an absolute right, it has limits placed on it. For a very good reason. Society also has rights to protect itself.

In this country it is illegal to incite people to acts of terrorism. Surely to fuck it should be illegal to incite pedophile acts or to promote them being legitimised. When did it become OK for a group of people to hold meetings, or to lobby parliament for pedophile activity to be made legitimate.

So it's OK to have them all in the same place and know who they are. That's worth the cost of a step towards them being more acceptable, because that's what the Dutch Court has said. Changes often happen in small steps, not huge leaps. The Dutch Court has given pedophiles a wee bit of respectability, or acceptability if you prefer, thanks for that.

Thhe age of consent is 12 in spain... so do do you still want burn spaniards?

**ilw** · 07-21-2006, 08:26 PM

according to this table its 13 in spain, but its a valid point, there are lots of countries where the age of consent is 13/14, and to a certain extent it makes biological sense as most people are well into puberty by that stage.

btw whats the age of consent in south carolina the table says 14/16 with a question mark against it

edit: saw this and thought it was sensible:
In Germany intercourse is legal from the age of 14 provided both partners are aged under 18 (or 21 in some circumstances).

Cutting people's hands off for stealing is legal in some countries, so it must be OK. Female castration, that's common in some countries, let's adopt that as well.

Here's the new plan, if it's OK somewhere in the World, then it's OK.

Hmmm.

Brings to mind the nascent but burgeoning (and annoying) compulsion of our U.S. Supreme Court to inform it's own decisions with those of the "World" community.

There are many here who disagree, but I think the tendency is intellectual laziness disguised as utter stupidity.

It seems my esteemed colleague JPaul is of similar opinion...though I am sure he will let me know if I am wrong.

I kinda of agree with there being no specific age of consent.

I was 14 the first time I had sex and after 9 years I don't feel that was the wrong thing to do, I was ready for it at the time.
Others might not be until a later age and then there's people who are mature a lot earlier.

I also think that it would just naturally fluctuate throughout the different generations. Who's the law to decide whether or not you're ready to make that commitment?

After all, despite us giving sex a lot of emotional value, it is mainly a biological act we've been acting out ever since man existed...
