Men Explain Why Age Of Consent Laws Are Too Strict

“I think a 45-year-old man is more than old enough to decide when a girl’s ready to have sex.”

“Defined age cutoffs don’t take into account nuances like how hot the girl was.”

“It’s scientifically proven that females mature faster than males, so who’s the real predator between a 16-year-old woman and a 34-year-old boy?”

“We have so many laws protecting minors, but no legislation protecting creeps like me.”

“It’s not fair that only politicians and celebrities get to date children.”

“I find all forms of consent objectionable.”

“You’re telling me she’s mature enough to be Germany—the lynchpin of the E.U., by the way—in her school’s model U.N., but she isn’t mature enough to choose who she wants to date?”

“What if the guy is, like, really, really dumb and immature?”

“Funny that the so-called ‘progressive left’ is so hung up on the age you were assigned at birth.”

“Everyone has their own personal age of consent.”

“I’m not a numbers guy. I’m a feelings guy.”

“It’s not grooming if it’s straight.”

“What ever happened to free love, man?”

“I think 18 is an arbitrary number, just like 12.”

“It doesn’t properly account for foreign girls from countries where they use a different numerical system.”

“The laws don’t seem to take my horniness into consideration at all.”

“Any law is too strict if it ends up applying to me.”
