    AKA Smith

    Can you not answer the question that I posed about the age of consent -- or are you just afraid to go there?

    -- AKA Smith

    The "age of consent" is a legal term. There is no argument or disagreement about what the age of consent legally is. Your opinion or anyone's opinion about the morality or logic or what have you has no bearing on that fact. How you or anyone feels about the propriety of the age of consent and how useful or unreasonable or not that it is has nothing to do with Glenn's points in this post. At least that is how I see it.
