On a Sunday, of course

Age of consent would vary with the society. There's a lot of difference between a 19th century girl raised on a farm in a rural area and a girl raised in a modern Western society. Same is true for a boy.

In my dad's day, high school was only three years and a young person was considered full grown and independent at 17. Not uncommon to see a girl get "in the family way" and marry at 16. Not uncommon to see a girl marry right after high school, regardless of situation.

Today? I don't think most kids have walking around sense at 18...

Fox News hates Christians.

1. Glad they got the bastard.
2. So if this is a huge story, then what’s been happening everyday in public schools should be our national nightmare, right? I mean the sexual assault rate and coverups in our schools is hundreds of times worse than even the dreaded Catholic Church. So why don’t I see hundreds of threads on here about that?

Good question.

What's your opinion?

[LuFins Dad]

Nearly 7% of school graduates claim sexual contact from an educator - https://www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/protecting-children-from-sexual-abuse/202305/educator-sexual-misconduct-remains-prevalent-in

Tthe school coverups of the incidents make the Catholic Church look like pikers. Where are the threads on this? Where is the outrage?

[jon-nyc]

Start some! No one is obligated to start the threads you want to see.

[Doctor Phibes]

I actually started a ton of threads about that stuff, but a moderator deleted them for some reason.

There are a lot of threads about the Catholic Church because Ax and others enjoy dunking on the Church and Catholics. He and others don't enjoy dunking on schools, so fewer threads.

I enjoy dunking on organized religion in general. Particularly those Christian ecclesial communities out there that encourage their members to proselytise.

We’ve actually had a bunch. Usually it’s when a cute 28 year old female teacher fucks some high school kid.

I assume they do this to protect the child victim, to keep the child victim as anonymous as possible. Unless exposing the gender of the child victim serves some greater public interest, it's good that they keep it hidden from public view.
