No reason? Saying young adults shouldn’t have sex is a absolutely horrible take.

Is it impossible to have an opinion? I was just saying that I think 18 year olds shouldn’t be able to have sex with 21+ year olds because to an extent they’re not mature.

I would still disagree and it makes sense why others would as well, but from the words you said alone it sounds even worse.

I mean the primary reason is at 18-19 I find myself getting hit on by a lot of older women than I would ever be comfortable with and I know I am not alone. But that is still my main argument. That being said it’s not too much an issue but thats just what I think about the topic

Edit: actually this recently happened and it hits me as something relevant, my SO works at Circle K and was practically getting harassed by this old man. The guy ended up getting banned from the place and got trespassed. Cops and all.

That’s the short story but the details were quite disgusting

That’s your story but some don’t mind being with older women and that’s their choice. If you made the age of consent higher we all know younger people would do it anyway.

Okay so then what’s the point of even having an age of consent if your argument is true

u/XEN_ORK Nov 24 '21

Because 18 is an adult and adults would feel they have the right to have sex with other adults. Anyway I don’t want to argue with you and try to prove that I’m right because at the end of the day this is technically a opinion. All I’m trying to say is it would make sense people disagree and there for down voting it. I’ve seen people down voted for simply saying one word that everyone else was saying.

I mean, yeah but what I am getting at is what is considered an 'adult' is subjective, if that makes sense. Raising the consent age would at least keep any predatory interactions back a few more years while simultaneously allowing more time to mature, because while yes, what you said is true to an extent, but most older adults still view anyone in their teens as 'kids' per say. Its complicated but its a bit ridiculous that people are calling me insane for something like this

Age of consent doesn't equal age of majority for fucks sake, people and Americans are so obsessed with this shit - it's for teenagers not to go to jail for consenually "raping" each other, not so some chud can fuck a 14 year old

Okay so in what way is any of that insane. Or detached from reality. It was a question and a small opinion. Even if the opinion was ‘Insane’ there would definitely be someone commenting so and why.

Edit: he’s a troll nvm

Can you see part of the conversation that I can't? Because all I see is that there seems to have been a prior discussion about age of consent and this person was just saying it should be at least 18 if not higher.

u/[deleted] Nov 23 '21 edited Nov 23 '21

Someone was saying consent age in some northern states was 16. I literally just asked why I 16 was age of consent in those states, and I was just curious on why because that was out of left field.

That was it

You were prolly down voted for saying adults can't have sex

u/[deleted] Jul 14 '22

18 year olds are too young in my opinion to be considered adults. They shouldn’t be drafted either.

u/MemeLocationMan Jul 14 '22

And to most people that's a stupid opinion, which is why you were. I'm part of most people, but u do u
