What IS good, and how do we determine it?

Even here in the US, the age of consent in some states is 14.

Which states?

State laws
Each U.S. state (and the District of Columbia) has its own age of consent. Currently state laws set the age of consent at 16, 17, or 18. The most common age is 16.[60]

age of consent 16 (31): Alabama, Alaska, Arkansas, Connecticut, District of Columbia, Georgia, Hawaii, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Mississippi, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Rhode Island, South Carolina, South Dakota, Vermont, Washington, West Virginia
age of consent 17 (8): Colorado, Illinois, Louisiana, Missouri, New Mexico, New York, Texas, Wyoming
age of consent 18 (12): Arizona, California, Delaware, Florida, Idaho, North Dakota, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Utah, Virginia, Wisconsin

CL, you're just another apologist that will say anything regardless of its proximity to the truth if the statement buttresses your position.

I love facts; however, for those that work backwards from their conclusions, facts are a bitch.

My apologies, I stand corrected. :-)

The age of consent is 14 in Europe and parts of South America, but not in the US. My fault.

You're most welcome

Great! Well I think that is a position I can get on board with. I think other members of the board were worrying about you considering pre-sexual children as fair game. I doubted this was actually true, and I'm glad I'm right!

Thanks for asking for clarification rather than just assuming and accusing me of it down the road!
