The US may be in a minority (but even minorities should have rights, right?) among the nations of the world as far as "age of consent" is concerned.

It's not a subject that many FReepers would necessarily care about unless they have underage daughters. However, there are some countries where, due to either economic or social conditions, parents have the sole responsibility for determining at what age their children can or cannot engage in sexual activity. The law is silent on the whole matter.

Yeah you have to have underage daughters to care.

And be able to get pregnant to care about abortion.

What you said is as stupid as the abortion comment.

The whole world is open to you, brother.

Feel free to move.

These were not young women being married and protected and provided for to procreate and raise the child . They were sex toys for rich men. That is disapproved of in any long lived culture.

I don’t give a crap what other countries or cultures do. It is not the standard here and for very good reasons
