In the 70s when I was in HS, an 18 yr old guy dating a 14yr old girl would have been the laughing stock of the school. Mocked at every opportunity. The good looking ones were even labeled "jail bait".
Her parents say she had only dated guys until this relationship developed. So technically a bisexual. But she will probably choose to be a lesbian.
splitting hair.... noone care about the sexuality of the 18 y.o. until SHE and HER FAMILY chose to make it an issue.... I only cared that it was an 18 yo with a 14 yo
Disagreeing with homosexuality = "homophobe". It's ridiculous overuse has rendered the word utterly meaningless. Yet there are many who still throw it around as more of a brainless reaction than an actual judgement.
Wrong. The Romeo and Juliet laws affect the punishment of the crime .... it doesn't make it a non-crime. This is definitely a "legal issue".
In Maine it does not count as statutory rape if the two are within 4 years of each other. YMMV depending on state, though.
She was a lesbian who liked an underaged girl. This is a fact. Why so defensive ? "gay bash"... ffs why such a wimp.
That's fine. Then the Romeo and Juliet law doesn't even come into effect. The Romeo and Juliet laws are applied WHEN their is statutory rape, to defend the accused from severe punishment, if this was a consensual sexual relationship. R&J laws are about the punishment, not the legality. That goes for every state that has the law.
this case was not in maine... in FL, where the case occurred, she broke the law. This was not even national news until the pro-gay community made it so by jumping to this predator's defense for no other reason than she said she was only being arrested because she was a lesbian....
think whatever you think about homophobes, now change out homo for hetero...... it makes about as much sense and means the same nothing that homophobe means. - - - Updated - - - pedophile.... sexual predator, pick whatever buzzword you want and the progay crowd is defending it for no other reason than she's a lesbian.
Someone who is biased against heterosexuals based on nothing more than their sexual characteristics, then? That describes literally nobody here. Maybe [MENTION=42273]Johnny-C[/MENTION] but I doubt it. No, it doesn't, because there actually are people who are against homosexuality as a whole based on nothing.
in your opinion.... I don't think anyone on here is biased against homosexuals based on nothing more than their sexual characteristics.... but you probably don't agree with my opinion. Of course, homophobe is also defined as "anyone who disagrees with someone who supports gay agenda" no, you say it's nothing.... I base my opinion on the gay agenda on the same line of reasoning that I am opposed to illegal immigration and global warming. Economics. I'm not a Mexicanaphobe or a climateaphobe.... Gay does not gross me out I don't lynch gays because they are gay. you are simply so upset with anyone who dares disagree with your gay agenda, that you just start throwing around words that have lost meaning from overuse. You are confused.
Amen! (Indeed.) No, it doesn't, because there actually are people who are against homosexuality as a whole based on nothing.[/QUOTE]
But particularly YOUR overuse of the word for anyone who disagrees with you makes the word meaningless. There were probably tons of homophobes (when people thought aids was a gay disease that could be spread to straights and noone was real sure how it spread).... but nowadays.... it's simply a word used to describe those who don't agree with the gay lifestyle. "YOU DIDN"T VOTE FOR PROP 2 WHICH LEGALIZES GAY MARRIAGE???????? you must be a homophobe....." - - - Updated - - - pedophile.... sexual predator, pick whatever buzzword you want and the progay crowd is defending it for no other reason than she's a lesbian.
What pedophile is being defended? The accusation is yours, I'm just backing you into a corner until you admit that nobody is defending a pedophile
pedophile.... sexual predator, pick whatever buzzword you want and the progay crowd is defending it for no other reason than she's a lesbian.
I accept your inability to face the fact that you came to the aid of a sexual predator, for the sole reason that she was gay. Statutory rape is apparently ok (as long as it's gay statutory rape) you can label me a criminalophobe if you like, though.... something you are definately not (as long as the criminal is gay)
how about quoting me coming to anyones aid? strawman strawman. I simply asked you to back up your use of pedophile.
