That decision would be made by his attitude when I confronted him and told him to stay the hell away from my daughter.

23 and 17 is a long way from 25 and 16

Do you have a daughter? Because its good that your making plans now - its not IF this scenerio shows up, its when. It could be when she's 21 but dating a 60 yo. Will you be happier about it then? And BTW the law wouldn't be able to do anything unless you could prove they were having sex, so bringing the law to his house wouldn't accomplish anything

Uhmmm....I don't think so. It's SICK and perverted.

Yes (to the OP), I AGREE that there is something wrong with that situation. Tell that 25 year old to find someone his OWN age. That's child molestation, in my book.

Someone near the top said to call the police...yeah...THAT and ALERT the girl's parents. Notice I said "girl." She is 16 and underage. Period.

you know I have watched ya'll for a few years now...

and yall never cease to amaze me in your hypocrasy at times..
ive seen threads about how people like Hugh Hefner @ 80 and his harem of barely legal girls he keeps being called a god among men..
Ive seen some of you 30+ crowd drooling on pics of women barely 20 years old..
Ive seen porn posted here that the models are known to be @19 years old and thats ok..

hypocrites everyone of you almost...

like was said at least 100x in this thread not all things are so cut and dry.. 16 and 25 is not a huge age gap. the main thing that is the problem to some of you is that most of the US law makers have decided that old enough to drive is also old enough to have sex.

but yall seem to have issues with that.
and in 2 years when she hits 18 not 1 of you would say a word.. in fact if shes hot most of you would pat the guy on the back for a nice catch..

so funny..

This has been a pretty amusing read so far. I love how some people have definite answers about right and wrong with no information to base it on. I guess that's what happens when you ask for advice on an internet forum though and the OP should have forseen this.

Like some have said... it all depends on the individuals involved. I work with HS students and some of them are maturity-retarded and others are pretty level headed. You know your friend and if your gut tells you there is something wrong there probably is. If he's breaking any statutory rape laws then there is something definitely wrong and you need to tell him to pull his head out of his rear before the authorities get involved. If they really are "in love" he wouldn't mind waiting for the sex. Seems more likely to me that your friend is bitter over being dumped and wants a relationship with a child because that gives him some sort of control and is less demanding than an adult relationship would be. Do you drive? is a lot easier to deal with than What are you going to do with your life/career?

I'm not a psychologist, but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last nigt...

Yes , I do. Once she is of a reasonable age , I would allow her to make decisions on her own. I don't feel that sixteen is anywhere near that age.
Granted , I would do what I could to convince her to make a rational decision for herself at 21 , 25 or any age , but at 16 , I still have the responsibility for her and no 25 year old is going to be associating with her closely enough to consider dating her if I can prevent it. They damn sure won't continue to do so if they were to start dating her.
You can't fall in love with someone you never get to know , and I can stop it if it would start.
I honestly believe that females are in their mid twenties , and males in the late twenties to early thirties before they mature enough that they truly have a clue what life is about.
That is an effect of the lack of discipline , structure ,and responsible parenting in this society , which in turn is a result of social engineering by narcissistic liberal lawyers/ politicians and lazy, greedy ,apethetic and narcissistic citizenry in this nation.


Blackgangst1:


You are actually the reason I responded to this.
I resent the fact that you implied we all agree it is OK for our daughters to get an abortion without parents consent. If the parents would do their job in the first place and raise kids properly and know where they are and what they are doing , it wouldn;t be an issue.
I have seen it many many times. It is easier to let the kid do what they want ,than to be responsible and take the time to raise and teach them.
I personally believe the parents ought to be held responsible for the actions of their chldren until they are of age.
If my dog gets out of the yard and bites someone , I am responsible.
How can I not ,then ,be responsible for a chld who I have the ability to teach right and wrong?
The dog is instinctive , the chld is not.
The problem lies with the parents. Too many have children they don't want and don't want to be bothered with. It's as if , as long as the kid is fed long enough to get out on their own . the parents job is done.
I don't see it that way.
DO YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR KIDS ARE RIGHT NOW?

STFU and mind your own business. If it's consentual, who fscking cares?!?

At 16, you're MORE than able to make your own decisions, etc. The puritian sex laws in this country are fscked up.

BTW, 16 is legal age of consent in many states. In some, it is 14. So stick that in your pipe and smoke it, you bunch of overreactive retards.

OMGSHE'S16CALLTHEPOLICE!!! :roll:


Missed my post didn't you? Additionally Iowa and Missouri are the only states where 14 is legal, and then only in very restricted circumstances.The point is, if you don't like the law you should strive to change it, breaking the law does NOT bring about social change.

er heard of civil disobediance dickweed?

In two years it will be legal everywhere.

Seriously, rub both of your brain cells together and tell me which part of "underage" and "of age" you don't understand.

Because he's really going to conduct civil disobediance in efforts to change the law, as opposed to just wanting to fvck and get some ass.

people like you have turned your nation into the international joke it is now

internation joke huh? ya the most powerful nation in the world is a joke.......guess who's currency you guys use to buy your oil? Yep- ours.......We trade you our paper for your product because you need our paper to buy your oil....funny huh? Sucker......

dude shut up while youre ahead...
you are clueless not only about this thread but about the world it seems too.

we already posted proof that in most states for purpose of sexual consent she is legal.

and we established that if she was of the proper age that that age gap is fairly small.

we also established that unless the parents can proove hes banging her even if in an 17 or 18 state that dating her is legal as well.



How did you establish that she was legal in LA? You guys do know that you can look up the law for free online right? 17 is the age of consent in the state of Lousiana. You do realize that different states have different laws (you've heard of the reserved powers clause yes?)

I don't find it that wrong that your friend is dating someone else's 16yo girl.

However, once I become a father, if I EVER found some douchebag 25 year old dating my 16 year old daughter, they'd have to use dental records to identify him.

hmm hypocrisy lives? :D

My buddy broke up with his gf last year, and was always telling me and my gf that he was lonely and wanted a gf. Now is is dating a 16 year old girl and they are "in love". I think he is just taking what he can get personally, but he thinks that dating someone still in high school is ok. Anybody else find this wrong?


as long as her parents know about it , then it is ok.
my daughter was married at 15 and her husband is 7 years older then her.
he asked me fisrt if they could date and he asked me first to marry her.
they have been happily married for 14 years, they have 4 children and now own thier own
home. he does not control her just because he is older then her.

older men date younger girls that young because they have more control and feel in control. They have flaws that other women will spot but 16 year old girls will miss.


COMPLETELY agree

COMPLETELY disagree ;)

If you actually give a damn about your friend, then it sure as hell is your business.

Unless you wouldn't mind seeing a friend going to jail on a statuatory rape conviction.

You mean like the girl's parents if they find out their daughter is getting fvcked by some 25 y.o.?

Yeah really.. not everyone whose with a vastly younger woman is a criminal. None-the-less - if she wants to report him because he's taking advantage of her age, then that's fine. I don't think it should be the job of a third party to rat on someone for engaging in an unusual and maybe unbalanced relationship.

There's a big difference between a 16 year old (well above the average age kids start having sex these days - regardless of whether that's a good idea or not) and if she were a 10 year old. That's when you tell. She's 16.. for the most part, she can at least make a choice about it.

?? Bro if you are 25 and you need to pick up 16 year old girls I would be doing you a FAVOR by turning you in. Seriously grow a set and meet girls closer to your own age.

Who knows what the quality of their relationship is. Perhaps they are soul mates. At 16, you are old enough to decide who you want to fvck.

again.. bingo - my point exactly - it's not our job to judge someone elses' decisions.
