    Nah, the laws are fine as they are. Nothing wrong with liking 18 year olds.

    FYI, Pedo is attraction to prepubcent kids, hebe is pubcent and ebo is postpubcent. Get your insults right or they might use it against you.

      When I was in grade school (5-7th grade) I knew a girl who was actively chasing & seducing grown men. For example she would sit in a bus driver's lap and grind. She had the body of a full grown woman when she was in 6th grade too. But of course feminist tell us that girls are all innocent angels so I must be imagining it, right? The adults should've said, 'no' but I guess it's like with any addiction.. some guys can't say know to P shoved right in their face.

      @hahahmm eww if your a grown as man you need to stop watching porn grow up and learn to have self respect.

      This is why women are no longer trying. Young girls obviously will do as taught but to allow it as an adult is definitely a picture of how much the world need to go to self control classes and moral classes.

      We're is everyone getting raised with such a mindset.

      @hahahamm obviously it wasn’t ok that she was doing that but she was a little kid still at the end of the day, not to mention I’m not sure if you know but society is bs on this stuff and a girls maturity isn’t based off of their age it’s literally based off of how “grown” their body looks like.

      That’s why young girls that get puberty early feel uncomfortable, society has effectively told them that their childhood has ended and that kind of shits scary.

      There is so much to get into with porn and women and it all comes down to all of us. Not just them both women and men are contributors to allowing society to expose us and our kids. Adults have a lot of growing to do just as much as a kid.

      But overall kids have the upper hand if exposed to the right environment and our surroundings is what raise is more over than our parents. Our parents are just a big factor of how we react and learn.

      @hahahmm well I read your comment wrong but overall these things don't just happen not should an adult act on it. I am talking in regards to anyone who tries to defend thier actions for acting on sexual response over being able to have the opportunity to teach an obviously exposed and abused kid

      That isn’t a valid excuse though, the people running the industry are majority men. And the people giving “whores” attention are literally men. No ones forcing men to do this, everyone knows porn is manipulative but it’s manipulative to straight men specifically more not because women are “whores looking for attention”.

      It’s because men in the industry have successfully made fortunes off of men consuming the most porn by giving them porn addictions.

      The industry is exploitative of both men and sex workers, bottom line. Men aren’t the only ones suffering from it.

      @doopayo "That isn’t a valid excuse though, the people running the industry are majority men. And the people giving “whores” attention are literally men." -- According to feminists, getting naked and having thirsty men chase you is "empowerment". It's only not empowerment if the female says it's not. In fact if a woman willingly does porn for 5 years -- not dragged into it but ran to do it -- she's "empowered". Then when she decides that she is a victim of men it switches from being empowerment to being exploited. Everything she did for the past 5 years is now called exploitation/enslavement/abuse. Magically her own actions over the past 5 years need to be forgotten/ignored and the blame is put 100% on a man. So feminists have created a world view where everything revolves around their momentary impulses & feelings instead of concrete facts... of what they've done. In other words, personal responsibility is reserved for men only. In fact he's responsible for what the women around him do too! Any man working in porn or building porn studios today is a fool. He'll be accused of rape and tossed in prison for 20 years eventually. Doesn't matter what the actual facts are.

So what if I made a post about the porn industry (which I haven’t) you can’t even admit that you can’t link a single post I’ve made where the subjects about the porn industry?

      Exactly, same here. I’m just saying the thing about SA laws is that especially in teens, teenagers can be predatory and age gap relationships among teenagers can be worst than adult ones ; for example a 17 and 14 year old might only be 3 years apart but because during teen years your brain develops at a faster pace that’s what I think has to be accounted for.

    No. 18 is fine. How exactly would that combat pedophiles? What a baseless claim. And yes pedophilia refers specifically to prepubescent children. It’s not some broad term you can label any person you deem it fitting to.

      @JessieBellll You don't have the ability to think independently. You only follow current customs. There is no reason to believe, we are smarter than people in 95% of recorded human history and most likely in over 99.95% of the more than 2 million years of human existence. In 1880, in most states, the age of consent was 10 and 12 in about 30% of the states.
      See discover-the-truth.com/.../

      Since, at that time, with most everyone being raised on farms, people knew more about life than modern people. Therefore, I would go with their opinions before I would follow the opinions of our stupid politicians. However, feel free to believe whatever you wish. I cannot change your beliefs. Nor, can you make the necessary logical arguments that will change my belief.

      @JessieBellll I didn't say 14, I said, "no more than age 14 for girls." Also, in 1880 an 8th-grade education was superior to current high schools graduates. See 8th-grade exam from 1895.
      www.grc.nasa.gov/.../1895_Eightgr_test.htm
      Very few high school graduates could pass that exam. However, those 8th-grade students would easily pass our 12-grade exams. Furthermore, currently, boys and girls are so extremely overly protected, that they learn far less about life than earlier generations did.

      Therefore, since the primary purpose of public education is indoctrination and not education, in view of our current inferior public education, it is best that girls remain in school longer before getting married.

    I think that if you are considered an adult you should be able to have sex. So the age of consent should be the same as the age of majority. Since it is 18 in the US; that is what it should be.

    How would raising the age of consent combat pedophiles who target pre-pubescent children?

    If that's the case we should probably raise the voting age.

    Wouldn't do any good. Teenagers will still have sex.

      I’m pretty sure this isn’t asked to keep teenagers from having sex but knowing what the age of criminalization should be.

      @snowboarder720 In that case, I would say anything beyond a 4 year age difference when the younger one is between 16 & 18.

      Trump was a pedo as well, he literally talked about wanting to sleep with his daughter multiple times on national television and I’m pretty sure everyone at this point knows about his history of sexual assault and rape. The only reason why he gets away with it is cause he’s rich and pays people money to shut up or cover his ass

      @rcljr not really Japanese have prefecture like USA have states and in all prefecture it is from 16 to 18 . Japan also have some of the lowest pedo cases and some of the lowest age gap between husband and wife I guess it was 1 year 3 months. So it is complete opposite actually Japanese usually date people of similar age

      Anime with fan service is not mainstream in Japan lol only anime like ghibli movies or demon slayer or jutsu kaisen is and they don't do it in those they actually look down on people who like creepy fan service. It is like porn in USA etc in Japan on average husband are only 1 year and 3 month older than their wife's and Japan have some of the lowest pedo cases compare it with how many pedos USA have. Japan is definitely better than USA

      @Yyyyu , then someone in charge of Japan needs to get the internet changed, it clearly states on many sites that age of consent in Japan is 13 years old, making the Japanese appear to be child rapists, which when you see all the anime, school girl look, the predisposition toward young looking dolled up women, childlike and child size sex dolls, cannot be far from the truth… sounds like a weak coverup to me.
