Thank you Ikuze, that was indeed much more different then what I remembered.

In your example both parties were of age, which is fine. And if they'd waited a couple of years, it would also have been fine. But some old guy creeping over a kid is just wrong :s

Older guys creeping over younger girls is always just wrong. But a cute, wealthy guy crushing on a girl is less wrong. I kid. I don't know what to think of those situations.
Someone said it earlier in the thread, I think it was Ikuze (too lazy to look it up), that scudeliapooping with an underaged partner happens often in gundam, like Traize fathering Mariemaia somewhere around the tender age of 16/17. And who knows how old Leia was, I personally think she looked older then Traize... so I guess that makes her a felon.
We see some of this in CardCaptors Sakura. Nadeshiko was 23 when Sakura was born, and I believe Toya was a good 6-8 year older then her, making Nadeshiko 15- 17 years old when he was born. On top of that, her husband Fujitaka was 11 years older then her!
So ya, Eric could have been a gentleman and kept his hands off his trophy wife for a while, but I've yet to meet a man who's kept his hands off his wife so early on in a marriage. Hormones happen, and at the bare minimum, we should be glad that he didn't force himself on her (at least not that that has been mentioned).
Felons all around!
