This is the only thing I think is unfair. It's not fair that a person was misled and then has to get punished for it. Your average person isn't gunna do a background check on every female they meet. And even though the girl lied, all she has to say to the cops (or whoever) is that the GUY is lying and then bam he's getting knocked. I met this girl when I was like 18 at a party. She told me she was 16 at the time. Ok 2 years younger is nothing. We talked and %$#% on and off for like 2 years up until last year ( I was 20) and she finally confessed to being 4 years younger than me instead of 2. So I was 20 talking to a 17 year old I thought was 19/20Originally Posted by Yeah
My feelings on the matter are this:
I agree with the age of consent being set at 16 and up (it's 16 in Minnesota.) I feel like at that age you know whether or not you want to have sex. I think that where people get messed up are with sexual education (the lack thereof,) and not knowing how to choose their partners wisely. I think it's insane that there is a definite realization that teens are engaging in sex, and yet, we as a society allow this "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy when it comes to sexual education. By the time you've reached that age, you've made a decision about sex, and learning how to properly put on a condom is not going to change that (but that's another topic for another time...)
My only gripe with the current law is that a lot of guys get caught up when it's not even their fault. They go to the club or something, meet a girl that they think are of age (Not considering the possibility of a fake ID,) smash, and then get caught up because the girl lied about her age. Someone I know got knocked for that. Now he's a registered sex offender for getting topped off by a 15 year old with a fake ID who told him that she was 19.I know it's hard to regulate something like that, but I can't help but think that the system needs some reform in that regard.
