Sex at 16 but porn at 18?
I know this is random but i always wondered why the hell you're allowed to have full on sex at the age of 16 but no porn. That does sound kinda stupid, so basically your allowed to touch and see but not allowed to watch a film to please yourself lol. Also i don't know if this is other countries but in the uk (for me anyway) i got tought sex education at the age of 10 and that had full on sex and nudity in it. At the age of 13 most males anyway, experience ejaculation for the first time. So basically as at that age you've seen all the parts and can produce, wouldn't 14 sound more appropriate for someone to be able to watch porn?
your thoughts thanks
i'm 18 :)
my opinion!
Harrison: it depends on what you watch, and what is stopping a 16 year old going hardcore?
!: haha its the total opposite here. you're allowed to buy a condom at any age but not allowed sex until 16. Basically a 5 year could go and buy a condom haha

Well... where I am, you can have sex at 16 but you can't buy condoms or get birth control until you're 18. So, that's pretty stupid. But yeah, no one actually pays attention to those "are you 18" questions... just lie :o
BUT ITS A STUPID LAW LIKE IN MY COUNTRY. IF YOU HAVE SEX YOU CANT PROTECT YOURSELF BUT GO AHEAD AND DO IT.

the explanation why the regulation is like it is by using the fact there is a few noticeably tough porn interior the international which would be particularly violent. in spite of the undeniable fact that by sixteen your allowed intercourse yet at 18 your legally an grownup so the government cant end you doing what you opt for, hence the 18 shrink on porn

Yeah, it makes no sense to me that you have to be 18 to watch porn but just 16 to have sex. I think it's society's way of being confused and reluctant to accept the fact that most 13 year olds are sexually active in today's world. Teen moms are slowly fading into "young moms". Pedophilia is all over. The truth's coming out and people aren't gonna like it. In the end, all of people's stupidity, sickness, lack of moral and hatred only proves me right again and again. Sadly.

You can't have sex everywhere at 16, the age of consent varies. And maybe not to give kids unrealistic expectations
