Do you think the age of consent should be lowered to 14?

Based on this Do you think minors should be punished for engaging in sex with adults?

A lot of guys say that kids need to take more responsibility for they're actions, therefore if caught having sex with adults they should face some type of charge. I'm thinking that since so many people agree with kids getting charges for sex with adults ( teacher/student, incest, then I want to see how many people think that the age of consent ( 16) is too high.

  • Jesus Christ all mighty... Im so fuckin happy that my step daughter was 20 when i showed up. And she's given us 2 beautiful grandSONS. I wanna root for these kids to get laid. Not 1 guy in the history of forever has wanted the youngster in question to get some mud for her turtle.

    The law says 18. But nature says 13. Thats a horrible goof played on us by the universe.

    There is a mental... maturity, maybe... that goes along with sex. You need to be able to handle the bullshit that comes along with sex. If you can't, then you end up as a crazy person.

    Kids just haven't been around long enough to know whats what.

    If a grown man wants to have sex with a 14 year old, or younger, someone needs to dead that fool. I have this scenario mapped out already. We need the following:
    1. An old abandoned barn
    2. Table mounted vice
    3. Spot welder
    4. Dull razor blade
    5. 10 gallons of diesel fuel or kerosene
    6. Box of matches
    7. Ambulance and medic crew

    The process is simple.
    1. Put the offenders cock and balls in the vice.
    2. Weld the vice adjustment shut.
    3. Dump the fuel inside the barn.
    4. Light a match, then toss it on a fuel puddle.
    5. Hand the prisoner the dull razor blade.
    6. Tell him "See you outside".
    7. Tell him that if he cuts his dick and balls off with the razor blade, he will be pardoned by the state, his record will be expunged, and the medics will save his life.
    8. Dismiss the ambulance and medics.
    9. Laugh hysterically after he cuts his own dick and balls off, as you watch him bleed to death nefore he gets to the door.
    9a. Laugh hysterically as he pusses up and decides he can't work the blade.
    10. His screams, as he burns to death will be recorded and sold as a ringtone. The proceeds will be given to the victims.

    Now if the roles are reversed, the process is mildly different. If there is a mature lady trying to fuck a minor boy, the punishment is as follows.
    1. Contact the local police dept.
    2. File requests for all required permits.
    3. Plan parade route.
    4. Have the booster club start building a float.
    5. Schedule the ticker-tape parade.
    6. Make sure that this dream maker can attend her own parade.
    7. Get a list of people that complained about the double standard.
    8. Work out the shift details for clean up by the people on the double standard list.

    Of course there is a double standard. As well there should be. 18 is plenty young for a girl to fuck. A boy? He should be...6. Five, if he can read.

    Haha! That last bit is a joke. Kinda. Im not in support of molesting a single digit aged children. Not by any stretch of the imagination.

    But there is a difference between girls and boys. Just by their general nature, i dont think a girl can handle some skeevy asshole pulling the ol' nut n bolt on her.

  • It was 14 where I live when I grew up. It hit increased to 16 around a decade ago or so.

    I’m not sure I have a strong view on 14 vs. 16. This doesn’t mean I think the average 14 year old should start sleeping with the adults. But there’s a difference between “often a bad idea” and “should be illegal”.

    I think by 14 most teens can decide for themselves if they want to have sex or not. The problem I think is that in real life there can be pressure and so on - real ones. People who are dating may break up over sex for instance. So while it’s one thing to say 14-15 year olds can decide if they want to have sex (which I’m confident in saying is true enough it’s reasonable legally). And another to say “14 or 14 year olds are ready to negotiate sexual boundaries”. That said I really am not impressed with just pushing to increase age while we simultaneously don’t talk to kids at all about how to handle sexual relationships. At best we tell them they need consent and can say no. That’s not actually enough.

    ethically people need to realize that whatever the age of consent, there will be individuals and scenarios where the individual would have been fine beforehand, and there will be other individuals who have sex they regret beyond that point. Age of consent laws are a very blunt tool to manage irresponsibility, as opposed to protecting children from exploitation.

  • 16 as the age of concent is already a little low... 18 would be better and draw a line... if kids have sex, then it isn't great but it means there is no confusion when a 16 year old who is still in school (definitely sixthform if not secondary school) sleeps with a teacher... 18 people either work or go to university here so that's the line really...

  • If the girl is actively pursuing sex with a gentleman, which 100% happens, then THAT should be her age of consent. I have friends who were consciously seeking penis from older dudes when they were 15. They would lie about their age and get on dating sites. So to call a dude a criminal for being with one of those kind of girls is ridiculous.

  • No it should not! Can't we just let kids be kids... It's bad enough society is becoming too sexualized in ways or shouldn't be with adults but damn least they adults... Keep it away from kids...

    • you think the age of consent is going to stop 14 year olds from having sex? How would the police know if they're having sex? They'll hide in their bedroom?

    • @john23232323 if you read... "A lot of guys say that kids need to take more responsibility for they're actions, therefore if caught having sex with adults they should face some type of charge." SO, NO I DO NOT THINK IT SHOULD BE LEGAL FOR ADULTS TO HAVE SEX WITH 14 YEAR OLDS...

    • @brainsbeforebeauty why not?

  • Large numbers girls that age are already sexually active, quite often in secret. Legalizing it would make it easier for them to come forward to seek advice on contraception and stds without fear of being questioned.

    • The age of consent in Japan is 13, but even that is very rarely enforced when it is consentual.

  • 14 is getting a bit too close to pedophilia territory for my liking.

  • 14 is too young! When I think back to me as a 14 year old, I hadn’t even kissed someone. I probably didn’t even know details of sex... too much of a child

  • It's already 14 here. Don't think anyone has a problem with it.

    • Where is "here"? That's a little messed up though..

  • 15, maybe.
    14 is a bit too close to the cut off point for paraphilic disorders.
    A lot of girls that age still look immature, and would thus only really attract adults with disordered sexual behaviors.

    15 is the right balance between protection and personal responsibility.

  • Anyone who thinks the age of consent should be lowered to 14 is a pedophile. Plain and simple. I mean holy shit guys what the fuck is wrong with people the only time I think it's acceptable for someone over 18 to have sex with someone under 18 is if two 17 year olds were dating and having sex already then one of them turns 18 while the other hasn't quite gotten to 18 yet. I still think its fucking stupid for them to have sex cause if they fuck up and get pregnant it will probably ruin their lives. I mean come on what's with all these people saying "let younger people have sex! What's the harm?" The harm is that if the younger people end up with a pregnancy they will either have to get an abortion then possibly live with the guilt of killing their own kid which could lead to depression or shit. Or they have a kid now. Their lives are fucked because they have a major responsibility they aren't ready for. I won't even fucking think of dating someone unless their 18 at least because I'm not gonna be the retard that gets some minor pregnant and spends the next few years in jail then even more years after that paying child support. So to round everything up to an answer to your question. HELL NO. it should not be made to 14 because that's fucking retarded and disgusting

    • so for you it isn't justified if a 19 year old guy to fuck a 17 year old girl but it's totally ok for two 14 year olds to have sex? You don't make sense at all. If you were 18 year old which girls would you date? 23 year olds?

    • I said it was fucking stupid to and I didn't say it's okay. All I'm saying is that it's not really a fucking rape if two 14 yo have sex, they are still retarded for doing it or did you just not read the whole "fucking up their lives" part of my post

  • I live in uk it be 16 and i personally think that's too low nevermind 14.

    Just romeo and Juliet law it until 20 i would say that way it works until after your teen. And 20 would be deemed as adult rather than legit ages that have Teen in it.

    • And a minor should only be charged if they somehow lied about there age. Cause any person sleeping with a minor knowingly it should only be there fault.

  • No I don't think that need to low to 14. Even if the world is accelerating how the children grow because of the internet.

    The world have idiots everywhere and even if both want (14~?) To have sex we don't need more children to be irresponsible for their actions and needs.

    And we have too the predators (pedophiles) ugh we don't need them here with our childs

  • It already is. Been on the truancy laws for over a century. Bet you didn't know a kid can go too jail for cutting class, did you.

  • depending on where you live in the world it can very the legal age. most common ones are 16, 17 and 18.

    • In the United States, the legal Age of Consent ranges state-by-state from 16 to 18 years old, with most states setting the age of consent at 16. Internationally, the Age of Consent ranges from as high as 19-20 in some countries to as low as 11 or 12 in certain underdeveloped nations. Some countries, particularly in the Middle East, require marriage prior to intercourse but do not specify an age of consent.

  • Not today Joe Biden!

  • No! God no. 14 is way too low. Though it actually is that low in a few states.

  • So I just took a look at the Wiki list of countries by age of consent:
    Sweden is one of many countries that has an age of consent of 15 and some have it even lower.
    Unless older partner is in a position of power or exploiting the inexperience of the younger person the age of consent is 13 in Japan and 14 in Germany, Italy, Austria, Bulgaria, Serbia and a bunch of others and it's 15 in France, Poland, Denmark etc.
    With a limit on age gap the age of consent is as low as 12 in 8 countries including Canada and 13 or 14 in Italy, South Korea, Israel and a few others.
    The examples I mentioned aren't some small backwards 3rd world pagan dictatorships where everyone suffers and rape is normal or whatever, we clearly have a lot of evidence that the age of consent doesn't have to be lower then 16.

  • i think consens should be around 12.

    • Most girls aren't even fully sexually developed at that point. And just not aware of what sex is. And if they are let them fuck with people their own age. Not with adults. Imagine being a parent and your 12 year old daughter is fucking a 40 year old. How would you feel?

    • @Saturnxox is consens, but she will still be minor. any guy over 18 will still go in jail even whit consens. It meen that she can have fun whit a guy that is 12-17. My desire is for the young kids to understand the circumstance and the qonsecuences.

  • I don't think minors should be punished but yes we have to explain them why sex is big think

  • Nope , I honestly don't think14 year old brains are fully developed and when your body and mind disagree, it's better to make sure they are capable emotionally, sexually
    Ly and intellectually at 14. All that said, I started at 13 but I had gone through a lot by then. Having both parents die, changing homes, schools and friends. It turned out that most of the new friends I had were the hot girls in school. It may have just been ccx compassion to start with but it didn't take much time to go from friends to going down on them and taking a few cherries but that was a unique situation.

  • If anything, it should be raised to 21 when people start - START- gaining some sense about life!

  • No way too young and probly 21 would be better than 18 I'm just saying I mean my 1st piece of ass was around 12 1/2 years old

  • in my opinion at 16 the age of consent is already to low.
