I lost my virginity when I was 13, and I have no regrets whatsoever. The institution of democracy, if spread throughout the entire world, would set the age of consent around 15.|shocking| As I am assuming most here are from the land of the free and the home of the brave where democracy is  before as the highest ideal of govt, The voice of the people ect, ect. So the logical conclusion to "spreading" of democracy around the world is a culmination of the laws as well, leading to my preceeding statment. |

"Sadly, many men who were sexually abused by women are locked in silence, shame, and self-loathing. Society tells them that not only was their experience not abuse, but that they should have enjoyed it, and if they didn’t there must be something terribly wrong with them. Even when their experiences are recognized as abuse, they may be viewed as having been “weak” or “not man enough” because they were unable to stop it, defend themselves, or put it behind them. The myth that men can’t be victimized particularly by women is firmly entrenched in many cultures. Many men who dare acknowledge that they were sexually abused by women are cruelly laughed at and humiliated. Most do not dare say a word about it for fear of feeling any more ashamed than they already feel. Many men who were sexually abused by women feel deeply ashamed of themselves, their sexuality, and their gender. Sadly and mistakenly, they believe that there must be something profoundly wrong with them that they were abused in this way. Some men defend against feeling this way by being in a constant state of anger or rage - one of the few emotions that are socially acceptable for men. Many male survivors cope with the abuse by drinking, using drugs, living recklessly, avoiding intimate relationships, numbing their feelings, dissociating, and becoming depressed, anxious or angry.

What i was trying to convey is that if all the laws in the world were brought together the age of consent would be around 15. biologically speaking between the mid teens and mid 30's women posess certain fat distribution charachteristics that signall reproductive capacity and youth. An optimum waist to hip ratio is about .7 and is the typical "hourglass" shape that is correlated with health and resistance to disease. A higher ratio is indicative of diabetes, heart disease, hypertension and other maladies of illness. http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/q...&dopt=Abstract If I see a beautiful woman who happens to be 17, do you think I will suddnely find her unattractive because the law says she must be 18 on the dot for me to do so? I met my wife when she was 16 and she was fashioned as one of the graces, the very embodiment of youth and beauty. I don't apologize to anyone for my predilections and now that I have two healthy, happy, beautiful children with her, I know I chose wisely. |
