Man who sexually assaulted minor freed after court hears it was "consensual"

What ever happened to the half your age and add 7 rule

I expected this story to be from some backwards shithole, what the fuck?

[Canary]

And you do realise girls have always been known to have periods at early age right?
The article is just pointing out what already happens and making out like it's something new.

[Snoberry]

...and?

You're acting like that validates your claim when it does the opposite. The fact that girls are having their periods earlier and earlier means they're reaching sexual maturity earlier and earlier and it has nothing to do with psychological maturity which would be from interactions with adults and adult media as you mentioned earlier.

[Canary]

And my point is no they're not reaching sexual maturity earlier it's been the same all along. Have you completely forgotten what we're arguing about?

[revan740]

The fucking point of a "legal age" is that if that person doesn't meet that age THEY CANNOT CONSENT.

YES DOES NOT MEAN YES IF YOU ARE BELOW 18. That's what statutory rape is, you fucking idiot of a judge.

Cases like this, and others where female teachers rape children then get off because they're women really boil my blood.

The offender should be afforded jail time.
The judge can go bite dandelions root first.
