Where did you get that from?
Being a guy.
I don’t know anyone who, at the age of 14, getting some action was considered “victim hood”. I’m sure kid is grinning from ear to ear and telling his buddies about it every day.
That’s how I think these women always get caught. The teenage boy can’t keep his big mouth shut and brags to his friends about “getting some”.
guilty. Unless she was the cousin of the kid.
“I’m relatively lenient when the older individual is a woman, as guys aren’t harmed as much. However, this isn’t a 17 year old looking to score, but a 14 year old who may or may not be even in high school.”
See that is the problem with our culture. It is “okay” for a 14 year old boy to get laid and I am almost sure his father is happy that his son is a “man” now. It is a double standard. That same father would not be happy if this was his 14 year old daughter.
Why is it that a teen boy having sex makes him a “man” yet a girl is either a “rape victim” or a “whore”
Why don’t those same fathers say “Yea my daughter’s now a woman” because she just got laid? It is the same sex act that just made his son a “man” after all.
Probable cause, due to the age of the boy
I’d hit it with room to clear the bridge.
One reason you would think a grown woman would keep her panties up and her skirt down.
That aside. There is a double standard, and that's how it should be. It's a combination of two things.
1. Men are bigger, stronger, and more likely to be predators. It's a man's job to protect women. That's how I was raised. That's how my dad, grandfather, etc were raised. Would I have needed protection from a 34 year old women when I was 16? Unless she was an authority figure, or had me at gun point, no. I'm bigger and stronger. I may need protection from a certain part of my anatomy at that age, but that's true no matter how old she is.
2. Men don't get pregnant. Now I was also raised that if I got a girl pregnant, that I would be a dad and not a sperm donor. That goes at 15 or even today at 33. If my girlfriend was pregnant, I'm buying a ring. I probably should soon anyway once my businesses stabilize, but that's another discussion.
Now if I had a 14 year old daughter and some 34 year old guy had his way, click click boom. Goes back to the men are bigger and stronger thing.
If I was in the 14 year old boy's shoes, I don't know how'd I react. I was mentally a later bloomer (hence as I said - guilty). At 16, big smile and keep my mouth shut because my mom would send someone to jail if word got back. Personally, I wouldn't be complaining.
I don’t think there should be a double standard.
As in I don’t think teen boys or girls should be having sex.
I believe we should teach our teen boys to respect women/girls and wait till marriage. Or am I just an old Nun?
Is this too much to ask of a teen/adult male? If you think of it it is more than just respecting females it is also respecting marriage.
Besides, they are brother and sister as well as cousins...
Lol...maybe u weren’t jeremiah but in my mid teens I was mature enough for girls my own age
And older women just wanted to get laid...not a lot to ponder over frankly
Keep it in perspective...it was just aboout the sex..for me anyhow
Physically mature, not emotionally mature. Sex outside of marriage is harmful for the individuals who do it, and when enough of them act like rutting animals, society gets ruined.
As we can see in headlines every day. Physically able is not the same as being mature enough emotionally or being able to take responsibility for the outcomes.
Just about the sex is the whole problem.
“a small child answered the door”. ... the damage from
this pernicious escapade will be with us a long time.
