Round and round and round and round.

It's the same tired voices making the same tired arguments.

Since you forget the points that are established on these threads...

Age of consent laws are not uniform for homosexual and heterosexual conduct. Therefore in some states an act of homosexual sex (sodomy) between an adult (aged 18+) and a minor aged 16 years old could be "staturory rape" while the same activity with members of the opposite sex would not and would be quite legal, even if morally repugnant.

There is no inconsistency there, other than the age opf consent.

It is still rape is there is no consent, and an individual has to be of legal age to consent.

It uniformly says that all people engaged in sexual acts have to be of legal age to consent.

Texas law says draws a class distinction and condones the commission of deviant sexual intercourse to some people, while criminalizing it for others.

What's incredibly weird about Texas, is that it allows homosexuals to adopt children, but objects to their having homosexual sex on moral grounds.

Yeah, and it's always the same people making absolute concrete sound sense and giving rational debate a good name. (You know who are, bravo.)
