Why is it so hard to have any serious discussion with people on topics like these? This thread is really old so looking back at it now, I expected better from /dead/ of all places.
I personally have no interest in children, so I couldn't care less about the issue. But just looking at the sheer amount of NPC tier spewing of

and its variations, makes me feel like you will have much better luck debating religious fundamentalists. People like to treat the age of consent like a god itself. Exactly one day after you turn [age], it is perfectly fine to have sex with people.
This would make sense if teenagers didn't have sex before the legal age anyways, it is pretty common for them to do so. So the only explanation that comes to mind is that the laws prevent older people from pursuing younger children. But even otherwise, we see older people (lets be real, most people refer to pedos as older males here, in general context) that marry people much younger them, although above legal age. What makes this any more acceptable?
If we look at this from an evolutionary standpoint, the prime reproductive age for people is after puberty, and it wasn't too uncommon for people to have kids at a very young age. Obviously, age of consent laws and other spooks will now refer to them as 'teen parents' in a derogatory sense. So I don't understand, what exactly does society want? I have a feeling that moralists have no answers themselves and just don't bother to tackle this issue without using spooks to fool themselves.
Even on this internet, people get triggered by shit like loli posting or the whole 'cuties' fiasco recently, then again, I don't particularly care for either of them, but the thing that keeps bothering me is how vehemently opposing people are to having an open discussion regarding these subjects without resorting to spooked shit, it's unbelievable.
