Teenagers fucking is without consent. Their brains, on the average, are not capable of making that level of decision.

What an absolute crock.

That’s the theory behind the law, OK, but the notion that someone is incapable of consent the day before their 18th birthday, but fully capable the following day, is manifestly stupid. I’ve raised three kids to adulthood. All of them had sexual relations before they were 18 and there’s nothing wrong with any of them. Don’t let religious nuts and the pathologically undersexed make your laws, it won’t work out.

That’s the theory behind the law

Exactly my point.

Consent is a legal concept, not a moral one.

There’s nothing wrong with teens fucking each other. It’s just not “with consent”. Consent is agreement between adults of sound mind. They are not adults.

  In that case, you shouldn’t fuck. I hope you aren’t fucking, because you are not an adult of sound mind.
  
  Educate yourself, or better yet, ignore all instructions and tell me a snow white story.

    Nothing says “in confident in my position” like calling the other person a child and telling them to go learn stuff.
    
    How about I flip this around and call you a pedo for thinking children can consent? Maybe your whole argument is a justification for your desires?
    
    See how stupid that makes me sound?
