[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We're talking about a 14 year old here. I don't care how old she looked, a 14 year old is very, very different from a 19 year old. A 14 year old is still a child in many ways and has the thought processes of a child. I would hope that our society would place the protection of children high on its list of priorities.[/quote]

Physically, there may be very little if any difference between a 14 yo and a 19 yo.  Emotionally, sure.  But...I could see me as a 18/19 yo missing the clues that she was only 14...it happened.  I did not sleep with her, and was 18, but we would have.  [/quote]

It doesn't matter what a 14 year old looks like. Our society believes that children deserve the protection of the law. A 14 year old could proclaim loudly that he or she is 25 and that would not matter because we have laws in place to protect children.

When I was in my mid to late teens, every young man I knew became very careful about who he went out with the minute he turned 18. We were all very aware of age of consent laws and very aware of the line between 18 and younger than 18. It would surprise me that young people today would be unaware of these laws.
