Which states?
Quote: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

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.

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!
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
