Nature's AGE OF CONSENT LAW is POST PUBERTY!


CASE CLOSED! Want to know if a human is "ready" for sexual activity? POST PUBERTY! Humans are idiots. We try to legislate sexuality with harsh laws and arbitrary ages when nature has given us a very clear and distinct biological sign as to when humans are ready to *beep* For the nosebleed seats, that sign is POST PUBERTY! I don't care if a 15yo male or female wants to bang a 95yo male or female as long as they both have gone through puberty and both consent to banging. POST PUBERTY is nature's way of tell you the apple is ripe enough to eat! I have no problem hooking up with a 16yo that has graduated from puberty and consents to the activity. Most 16yo's these days have already had 22 partners! What happened in this film was only shocking to nervous numbskulls that believe driving 56 in a 55 zone should be punishable by execution. There is nothing wrong with a POST PUBERTY 16yo banging a POST PUBERTY 30yo with consent. If she drugged him, tied him up and raped him, THEN we have a problem. But she didn't, they were in love and they both consented to what was happening. We let 16yo's drive cars on our streets making life and death decisions on our roads. If nature deems them ready, then it's okay with me. I trust nature and biology far more than some fossil of a lawmaker who decided 18 was the blessed age of banging! WTF?!?! 18?!?! I was through PUBERTY at 12 and enjoying sex by 13. In most nations people have whole families by 17. Wake up! 18 is way too old for age of consent and has nothing to do with biology. Let nature determine the law. Its hard to believe you could go to prison for having a consenting, loving, caring, and sexual relationship with a POST PUBERTY 16yo! Our world has gone mad. Nature say's GO, but the law says you have to wait 6 more years? *beep* BUT it's completely legal to bang a prepubescent 15yo as long as you're under 18? Idiocracy is here folks. Legislating sexuality has resulted in an entire generation of Adult-Children acting like over protected teenagers at age 30. Let the kids grow up and experience life, they'll be okay, trust me. Whenever we purposely ignore nature and biology the results are devastating. Biology trumps law. Why would men hit their prime in their teen years and women hit it in their 30's. If you can't piece that puzzle together you have no right legislating what you can't even grasp intellectually. It amazes me how many people consider the events of this film to be inappropriate. Or that the Lifeguard should be imprisioned. These are the same clowns that think Homosexuals shoud be hung by the neck until dead. Very sad. For how long was being gay a crime legislated by prison sentences? Some folks need a heavy dose of evolution.

This was a really long rant, but generally I agree.

I 100% agree with this. Sadly the world is ran by laws that go against human nature.

reply

Agreed. Exhibit A: gay "marriage".

This an extremely myopic and reductionist perception. Think about maturation rates in various cultures. It is not universal. It's important to protect the young. Physically they may be ready but emotionally they might not be. Peer-to-peer is one thing but when an older adult takes advantage of youth and vulnerabity it is predatory. There is a power disparity. Thank goodness there are laws and your reasoning is in the minority! :)

Are you *beep* kidding me? You think rape is "natural"? WOW! There is NOTHING natural about forcing someone to do things they don't want to do. So, your reasoning is nonsensical.

Some good points, but you're forgetting that some people are not as sexually or emotionally mature at age 13 as others are.

It goes the other way too; I know a woman in her late 40s with two kids who still isn't emotionally mature.
