You're scaring me with all this marriage talk but yes, if I was in love with someone and they wanted to wait until they were older or until we were married I could wait, but I wouldn't really want to, and I'm not really in a place in my life where I could see myself getting married.

That's why we can see 12yo girls with ton of make-up <_<
Well, I disagree with the way of thinking of those girls anyway. Quote:
I just meant the legal age for marriage is not a big deal (as a reply to your first comment that 18 is to high). Because waiting is not a big deal imo. |

That's mean but it's the truth. When you know that girls around 12years old have already done many fellatio and talk only about sex sex and uhh oh yes sex I think the word "bitch" in the dictionnary fit this kind of behaviour well. Soon, as we discuss many times together, it will be children around 8 >_> There is no childhood anymore

I see! I was in Valbonne, near Nice, south of France, but I'm sure you know that
I think the main problem with this is kids trying to grow up too fast and act like adults. At their age, they don't consider the consequences and tend to act purely out of pleasure more than anything else. That's what's really scary. I'm sure someone here has heard of the 15 year old girl who'se had a baby from a 13 year old boy here in the UK. In the end, I think blood tests proved that the boy wasn't the father, but the fact still remains that the chance of him being the one were there, meaning even at his age, he'd already done it. |

Well, for those that are concerned about the age of consent being 18 and thinking it might be too late or something let me add this: at least in my country (Portugal) the law states that for it to be considered a crime the age difference between both (boy and girl) has to be over 3 years if I'm not mistaken. So that means a 19 year old can date a 17 year old without fear of legal issues.
I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure that's what the law says 'round here.

I've read this small discussion, and I have to say what I would've posted would just be along the lines of what Kusa-San said.
I think society, from my American point of view, is pressing for sex, and casual sex at that, and marketing it to younger people. I think that there's a very bad thing going on where people think it's okay to just go around having sex with everyone. I'm not saying that that's not fun, I wouldn't know but I'm sure some people think it is, but I guess I just miss the more traditional values :/ Just my opinion of course. And yeah, the weird acting 12 year olds... My sister's 12 and she wears almost full on make-up, what the hell is that about?! |

Partly because it's to be expected that there would be people who did not date in high school, but more so because this is an anime discussion forum. In America (そして日本でも、だと思う) anime fans tend to be social outcasts, somewhat ostracized for their unusual interests and possibly for social awkwardness. Anime fans are in stark contrast to the types of people who would date early and date heavily, who by comparison tend to be very social and well-connected.
It's just a stereotype, but in many ways there is a certain truth to it. Quote:
However, I've spoken with people who grew up in the 1960's and the view is rather different. To (some of) them, society now is very restrictive and up-tight. According to them, back then you could sleep with anyone and have a good time; these days, everyone is worrying about HIV and other sexually-transmitted diseases. So perhaps it's all relative.

Veen reading the discussion for the last few pages... and things have gotten quite interesting. And here;s two more scary things for y'all: In the UK, I've heard you can have sex at 16, but can't actually see it until 17... and also, anyone familiar with the term "old enough to bleed, old enough to breed"? It was a very long while ago, but apparently a girl got pregnant at 13 (and had the child as well)
Some more recent stuff: as Legdem just brought up, since we're all anime fans, I doubt many of us would've dated in high school (sad fact incoming: I not only never dated during high school for reasons I'll explain in a second, but have also been single for the past seven years)... though it wasn't due to anime, but because I was a total bookworm back in those days (heck, give me a good book to read, and it still hasn't changed)... every time I asked a girl out, I had a tendency to get shot down And finally: I'm guessing the majority of us had our ideas and behaviors influenced by the late 90's/early 2000's? Unfortunately, people these days are in a society that is all about getting as many things done as possible in a very short amount of time, a bit different from when I'm sure many of us were in our childhood. It's a sad fact, but I've grown to accept it (not saying I like it)... as I note all the time, kids these days are growing up far too fast; but hey, that's the changing times for ya...

I seem to remember a recent study on students in my own province of British Columbia (westernmost province of Canada for those not in the know) found that current high schoolers are less likely to have had sex or tried drugs then high schoolers ten years ago. That suggests to me that there's more than a little sensationalistic journalism going on regarding the topic.

Like others around my age, people are seeking to start a family earlier which is very different compare to those older than me that prioritized personal education, career and leisure over the family life. Quote:
Kids are always picking up things faster than us . I had my first mobile phone at 18 compare to my younger siblings that's been totting a mobile since he's 12. Quote:
