also what is up with age of consent differences in dif states and countries?? the judgmental factor is obv cultural and time based, 13 year olds could be married a century ago, theres coutnries where 14-16 is age of consent so i guess i am asking what is CULTURALLY QACCEPTABLE age gap wise and how it looks or how to make it seem more appropriate, as 18 is the legal limit and from friends ive asked, 18 is peak attractiveness for most girls
Legal age of consent is what you get when you try to over simplify reality into a simple rule that should work for everyone but it just doesn’t.
As a society, you don’t want women giving birth too soon… most girls at 13 despite being able to go through labor are not yet physically nor mentally ready to have a baby.
Risk of death and malnourishment is real… so that should be discouraged.
At the same time, you have older unadapted loser guys who might take advantage of their naivety and knock them up only to abandon them or end up being terrible fathers (since they are terrible men to begin with)… so law wants to discourage it from happening.
However, although such things happen, a much more common occurrence is a teen girl (13-17) having sex with a teen boy… and while not as bad, that is something that you don’t want to either promote nor discourage. So it gets more complex.
The fact is you can’t put an age number and expect everyone to be mature enough to make all their decisions and act like adults.
In my experience, 18 years old are pretty immature and prone to make stupid decisions, yet they get to vote.
Between 14 and 17 is just terrible odds… and at the same time, it is the age where everybody wants to be fucking around.
You can’t control nature, I guess. But lawyers sure are trying.
Personally I prefer women in the 22-25 age range.
18 years old are too immature for me.
It’s a pain in the ass running a seduction with someone who has no idea she is being seduced XD
