Not to get me wrong, I've got nothing against child molesters and rapists getting there, but this is ludicrous and ruins the guys life for life. He will never be able to land a decent job or get into a serious relationship because that bulb is always shining over his head.
I hear you have to go around telling people you're on the list. "Hello. My name is Chad. I am forced to tell you that I'm on the sex offender's list? Why? I had to pee really bad, and thought no one was looking."
"Why? Because someone lied to me about her age before we had sex."

Of course it is ridiculous. Our "judicial system" is a disgrace.
IF you can track down a Frontline piece called "Solitary Nation" ( should be on Youtube) check it out. It deals with prisoners in solitary confinement. When it drives them nuts so that they act out they are given...you guessed it....MORE time in solitary.
You can't make this shit up.
Aw man... : 
I will take a look.

"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."

So this may be up your alley. I don't post it as an actual video, since I don't want to derail a serious discussion.

Why do we only hear about stuff like this from Al Jazeera?
Seems to be virtually on point with the current discussion.

So, how do y'all feel about this? Personally, I think it's very unfair. The dude was lied to! And now he faces 25 years as a sex offender for believing a lie?? This is something that can destroy his life.
I obiously don't condone this behavior, but I do think the sex offender list is for dangerous predators, not people who engage in merely "inappropriate behavior."

Given the way the laws are, it is prudent to be careful about age and not simply take someone's word for such things. That is not a comment on the rightness or wrongness of the law; it is a comment about what one should do when one lives somewhere that such laws are in place. It is plainly stupid to just believe a stranger who makes some claim about his or her age.
A problem with changing the law (regarding whether it is a crime, not about the exact punishment) would be that many people would knowingly have sex with underage children and just have them lie about their age first, and pretend that they were fooled if anyone finds out they had sex. If someone lying is taken as a defense, then that effectively means that there is no age restriction on what age person one can have sex with.
So, should there be an age limit or not? If there is, how should it be enforced?

Unless you're Paula Radcliffe.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
