I have been hearing alot about sex with minors. some say that it is alright with consent but inreality it is against the law. i agree with that law. i just wanted to know aome other opinions.
the problem with all of this is that if you get a girl pregnant, (especially under-age, more or less) she will claim she was raped.
Having sex with a minor is like selling cigarettes to a minor, ILLEGAL.
Its a different story if it was peer.
Its ok to have sex as long as the gurl wants it. But there should be no babys..... Cuz god doesn't want more people in heaven...
Having sex with a minor with consent is statuatory rape, and is hihly illegal.
Having sex with a minor without consent i just plain rape and is really illegal.
If you have sex with a minor and she consents to it... why would she be telling everyone anyway?
That's the law. Any girls in high school could easily strip^in front of a teacher and get him into court, wtf can he do anyway? He DID saw her and there are no proofs she didn't want that in the first place...
Even concentent, it's dangerous.
He understands it's illegal, but he's asking whether it's wrong.
My philosophy; if it either harms no one, or only the one doing the activity(such as someone cutting off his leg, or giving consent to her boyfriend), than there's nothing wrong with it.
If the only people it harms, if any at all, are the people/person doing an activity of any nature, how can it be bad?
Well if you completly put the law away, then it's totally moral...
Why would we reach puberty at 11/12/13, then, if it is not that we are physicaly ready to have sexual experiences?
The problem is only mental...
Back in pre-history people usually had children at about 14
In ancient Sparta girls had children at 17
I think that above 16 would be ok since they already matured psysically. It's their problem if they didn't mature mentaly.
Another problem is that a big percentage of 16 year old girls look like they are 18, 19 and even 20.
How are you supposed to know her age?
If she tells you an age how do you know she is not lying?
I'm gonna put my flame helmet as I know someone will disagree with me.

My philosiphy is if they agree, it's ok. As long as isn't liek threatened or blackmailed into agreeing.
It's fine with consent so long as both parties involved know exactly what the consequences could be, say, if they didn't use protection.
no matter what it is unethical and inmoral to have sex before marrage. i say if you are married then it is okay
The Bible is outdated on the issue of sex before marriage.
I agree with Will this time.
Every year less and less people want to get married thus making sex before marriage more common and socially less wrong
Exactly, I'm completely free of religious affiliation and I don't intend to get married - maybe ever.
i am one of those people that is religously active but not in a zealous manner. so my stand would be that i think that you should get married first.

Stripping in front of a teacher cant get him in court, only sexual interaction can.

Please find some statistics on this or some kind of proof, otherwise its just opinion.
Just because its socially less wrong that means everyobne should shift their morals and values based on the current trend in society ? wow, thats an mazing deduction. In retrospect people wanting to get married less or more has nothing to do with sex before marrige, people are just less inhibited that they used to be.
according to judaism once you have your Barmitzmfa at 14 your are a man. Puberty has started or has already started at this age also, so people are physically (most of the time) ready to have children at that age, but as Paladin stated we are not mentally ready for it. At least not in american society.
imagine that everyone had sex all the time. it would be plesureable, but more girls would die from having kids at a young age.
Wtf?!
All the posts I made on a certain day never appeared...
*sigh*
Okay, here I repeat:
[Battlekruser]"My philosiphy is if they agree, it's ok. As long as isn't liek threatened or blackmailed into agreeing."
In case anyeone was confused by what I said before, what Battle said is similar to what I believe, except:
If it someone else is effected negatively and minds, than it's still bad
It's my complete philosophy for just about everything(i.e. whether burning some paper is morally wrong, whether killing someone is wrong, etc)

no they wouldnt, that in no way makes any sense at all. What do you consider "young" ? Years ago (like already stated) girls had children at even younger ages from as young as 14 up, you know hy because people back then didnt live as long. So having kids young was the norm.
Besides having sex does noy gurantee you will have a kid. There are over a dozen different birth preventing techniques.
Hopefully if people "had sex all the time" someone would have enough brains to use birth control. I'll give you some facts: The pill is 99% effective. A properly used condom is 96% effective. Using both, .01 x .04 = .0004 chance of having a kid. Or, hell, us guys can get vasectomies and blow their brains out with a nice 0% chance of having a kid. I think they're reversible nowadays, too.

Back then there were alot of deaths do to birth at a young age. that was why having kids is dangerous at a young age. and about the preventatives. there are still girls getting pregnat at a young age today. you cant just assume that all girls will be good little girls and use birth control.
A) someone should respond to moose's post about brith control. he makes a good point.
B) does anyone know where the law stands if two people have sex and theyre both minors? please dont ask me why i need to know this... i just do
Laws vary by the state and coutnry, including age of consent as well. I think minor/minor sex is legal, but then again, the variations might fit under that as well.
