I think these days its pretty reasonable - sixteen makes sense, with some leyway where say its a 15 year old with say a 17 year old.

The argument put forward by people who want various forms of deviant sex made legal, now and in the past, is that "that is how they are", so society should respect that and let them get on with it and indeed 'celebrate' it - paedophiles make the same argument. Many on the left, notably Hariett Harman supported them in their guise as the Paedophile Exchange. Edited by hedgehog50 (02 Aug 2017 3.02pm) Difference is that the laws against gay people were wrong. We know that, and accept that now - and its very hard to argue that the offence of being gay was anything other than prejudice in society. Notably Thatcher voted for the repeal of homosexuality laws because they were wrong and served no purpose. It was a dark era of our past that we criminalised peoples sexuality without just cause. Whilst I would accept that some pedos might be born that way - they're a danger to young people that gay people never were. The law was wrong, and even back then a lot of people from all sides thought it was. It reflected a prejudice in society, not jurisprudence or protection of society.

Why do all discussions on here come back to 'gay rights'? This has NOTHING to do with gay rights. It's about FMG. For the record, I think FMG is inhumane. It's terrible that women in this day and age have to go through that.

Originally posted by jamiemartin721 No, they criminals as they're violating laws regarding consent that society believes to be just. Gay people aren't abusing non-conenting adults. Homosexuality is only a deviance as its a statistical deviation from the norm: very few people consider it to be either immoral, criminal or abusive - as it occurs between consenting adults. Where as whilst pedophiles are sexually deviant, their actions are harmful and do not involve consent, or people considered capable of giving consent. Edited by jamiemartin721 (02 Aug 2017 2.34pm) 'pedophiles are sexually deviant' I'm truly amazed you came out with that statement. Previously I know you have communicated sense over this troublesome issue. Deviant.....No Jamie, nothing that you are born with is 'deviant'. You really surprised me with this. Pedophiles are dangerous, that's for sure. We need to protect ourselves from them that's for sure. Just like we need to protect ourselves from the 'psychopath' and other dangerous personalities. People are born with tendencies from their genetics. Nature doesn't care about social norms or conditioning. Some of them have upbringings that help them combat what is natural to them, some don't, some don't want to. Regardless our concern is the protection of children. But this isn't achieved via demonisation. Knowledge is power, Society benefits from honesty on these issues. Not overly emotional people talking immature nonsense.

A mistake for sure. However the nccl was an important supporter of many campaigns. Now before any of the usual suspects accuse me of siding with Pie, I'm not.
