I've wondered the same thing before. Back in the day, it was nothing for girls to be married at 14, 15 to men 5-6-7 years older so why the outrage in this day and age when girls that age date boys in that age range? I guess I'm just a believer in the saying "age ain't nothing but a number".

This is my thing. If a 15 yo girl is caught having sex w/an 18 yo boy the boy could be arrested but if she were doing the same thing with a 17 yo boy then nothing legal can be done :dunno: So what's the difference in ONE YEAR in the boys age? I don't get it. During the R. Kelly drama I asked the same thing. Looking at the tape, it's obvious the girl was no virgin so my thing is if she were doing the same things she was doing w/R with a 14 year old boy then what?

I don't advocate pedophilia (I actually don't think KIDS should be having sex period but that's a whole nother topic). But I just can't grasp if they're doing it ANYWAY what difference does it make who they're doing it with?

You’re comparing marriages that were about property, about controlling who inherited what, with two people hooking up pretty much expressly for sex, or a relationship that hinges on the possibility of sex.
That’s not a basis for comparison or complaint. That’s like saying they used to burn witches at the stake, now Biden’s picked a Wiccan for a Federal Justice. Wiccan =/= witch, and the settings are different.

“So what's the difference in ONE YEAR in the boys age? I don't get it.”
You don’t have to get it. But a line has been drawn. Maybe it’s an arbitrary line, but the important point is THERE IS A LINE. Observe it or face the consequences.

Fortunately a little something called Rule of Law - which is a fact of life - destroys your ‘Belief'. Why?

Continue to so much as think the way you do and you'll find that something is more than just a number:

Your prison sentence in more than just mere years: but decades.

One of the reason why we have “arbitrary” legal dividing lines in general because the world is full of delusional fools and bad-faith actors pretending to be delusional fools who “understand” other people’s thoughts and actions better than they do themselves… and as a result abuse others and blame them for their abuse. It’s not possible to draw such dividing lines for everything, nor is that always an effective or appropriate approach, but it does cut off some of the worst nonsense in situations where the only way to know the truth for certain is to develop psychic powers and mindrape the hell out of both the alleged victim and perpetrator. It becomes a much simpler matter of “Did you go over the clearly defined line? If so, you *do* know (or should have known) the consequences…”

Not in my corner of the world it's not! And dare I say, for good reason. Lol, I got kinda frowned at for being over 40 and having a thing with a woman who's about 20.

Back then the women were married off and yes some were happy marriages but others were miserable and back in the day people were less educated, illiterate and the technology used to post the OPs excuses for paedophilia didn't exist

You forgot to account for maturity and the fact most of these precocious marriages were between upper classes parents wishing to cement alliances.

Ahhh the good old days, when 12 year olds were considered marriageable age. But there are AOC laws for very good reasons now. Sure it's 16 here, 17 in Tasmania, but they had to draw the line somewhere.

And 2 teenagers fooling around is just puppy love, but an experienced adult grooming a child is wrong.
