HAT TRICK.

So here we will be debating whether sexuality and the legal age of consent are connected. Can someone really under 18 (I'm talking about 15 and up here) not make their own decisions. I'm sure they can choose whether they want to **** or not. Do they know everything about sex? Can we assume that all of them are uneducated?

At the last two sentences.

The newly released photos are a great example of "next verse, same as the first," as the young 'Hannah Montana' star does her best to pose "sexy" despite lacking the maturity or legal right to know what sexy is.


Is this true, or is it an opinion? I don't believe that you are ever outside of legality when it comes to sexuality, but I'm guessing I shouldn't even be taking that seriously.

Legal right to know what sexy is? What the?

I think someone who is really young will underestimate the consequences of sex, like kids usually do. I'm not assuming they are all uneducated, but they are young and will make comprises under pressure or make mistakes in judgment that can really mess up their lives.

I think it's amazing how some 15 year olds can be mature enough, while others can not. Isn't it great how people are different regardless of age?

What the hell is the "legal right to know what sexy is"?

When was I stripped of my right to decide what was sexy?

I think that it's a contrived form of control that found its way into the mainstream due to the passing on of the taboo.

Sex isn't bad. It's better to teach kids how to do it right then to tell them not to do it at all, because in the latter case they end up still doing it, but doing it wrong.

I think that everyone ages 13 to 17 should be actively taught sexual education.

I think it's completely normal too do sexual stuff in your teens.
Why else would we become horny by that time?
To do nothing for 10 years, maybe longer because we can't get married? Fu[SIZE="2"]ck[/SIZE] it.

sorry, but I'm just not mature enough to insert my erect penis into a females vagina. Maybe I will in about 8 months when I reach the zen age of maturity, and my life changes forever. i was ready around age 12, shit yo, though i guess i'd prefer it to be around 15-16.

When the goverment decided that they were already messed up enough, but then wanted to go the extra mile and REALLY piss off everybody else.

It's a matter of how they take it and if they take it seriously, I mean condoms and stuff. But there might be a problem. The girl is too young and I'm sure most of teenagers don' want to have sex at an early age as they don't want to get any disease or just a baby.

Thought teenagers take sex too simple. Some laugh when they are being educated, some don't.

Teenagers don't have the experience Adults have yet.

It's all about how mature you are and how you take it. Seriously or Not.

And where did they get that from?
Just don't whine.

Let them fu[SIZE="2"]ck[/SIZE]. But be sure to give 'em condoms so they don't make mistakes. And tell 'em what those mistakes are. If everyone is gonna just shut up about sex, teens won't know the consequences. I had a kid at school (16 or so) asking what AIDS was. Wtf?

You phrased that really badly.

Teenagers don't want to get diseases or become pregnant, but teenagers DO want to have sex. The two are not mutually inclusive.
