    I agree, but whether she was drunk or not the consequences should be the same( if she lied about her age. )

    Double standards then.

    So if it was your daughter that had acted this way what would you be saying and doing? Can't wait to hear you say your own would obviously be a *.

    EDIT the original post I quoted stated a player.

    You would think so, as ridiculous as it sounds.

    It's a flawed law.

    You can't legally have * with a 15 yr old and if it was the night before her birthday she would we 14.

    I'm saying if she wasn't a minor though he still knew fine well the risks. He's just as much of a * then, yes there are girls out there that have tried to ruin sports persons careers but you don't know the facts so you're just jumping to conclusions.

    It's strange as * imo.

    Technically speaking and legally-speaking (no way morally-speaking though), you could have * wae a 15 year old 2 mins before her 16 birthday and be classed as a peado, yet if ye held on for 2 mins longer (barring the lass hasn't any learning difficulties or anything like that) all is well and good in the eyes of the law? :97:

    Pretty sure that wasn't true.. And even if it was true the girl would have been 16 and legal.

    If she's 15 and you pump her the night before her birthday, it would make it her 16th birthday ya *.

    Subjective arguments are made by defence lawyers all the time . Not everything is black and white and a level of subjection is inevitable in most cases . It's why we have a jury .

    It is a weird one and if found guilty that would be taken into consideration, I guess it has to be drawn somewhere.

    Very strange and flawed but there has to be some sort of law in place.. What other way could you have it? Make the '2 year rule' the '2 year law' ? :smiley-laughing002:

    I know we aren't animals but it is in the biology of most males in the animal Kingdom to be the sort of alpha and fling about. ( plenty of them on here)

    Not familiar with the operations of a court at all.. But surely Johnsons defense lawyer would not be able to say "yeah but look at her she looks well old"
