I would like to announce that I have made a mistake. I was supposed to introduce the Medicare Reform Bill before this. I'm thinking that I should just leave this up and introduce the Medicare next since I introduced both anyway. I can change this if there's anybody who has a huge objection to this.

While I'll still support it either way, I would prefer to see a consent rule put on necrophilia. I understand that sexuaal fetishes are not voluntary, and that consent can be given before death, l;ike in organ donations, so I fail to see the problem with allowing legality through consent.

Wouldn't there kind of be health issues relating to having sex with rotting corpses, at the very least?

You like sending teenagers to prison and slapping them with large fines?  The pornography age is questionable as it stands in this bill, but 18 is ridiculous.  So we deny sexuality until 18.  That is not natural.  How does this help society? Sexual repression causes bad things to happen. Personally, I'd suggest pornography at 14, and consent should stay at 16.  We don't want to pull a crazy Santorum because soon we'll start only allowing sex between married couples who write and video tape consent and are both above the age of 21 with pornography illegal.

What? How does putting an age on consent make something unnatural?

Putting an age on consent isn't repression. I love how you can say 16 for consent and that's fine but 18 is repression. Couldn't any set age be seen a repression?

You've proven to be so immature here. Luckily, you'll never serve in the Senate. I do love the "We don't want to pull a crazy Santorum" line though.

By denying one's nature... Care to clarify?

I was speaking about the age of consent on viewing pornography, not sure if you were talking about the age of sexual consent.  For sexual consent, it isn't repression because this bill allows sex between minors.

Haha.  I love the burning hatred that seeths from your posts.  I wonder how it's immature?  I'd love to debate this if you had anything substantial I could debate.

Btw, thank you, I thought it was a good line.

Don't get smart with me. We're denying nature by setting an age on sexual consent? Wouldn't the ages you proposed be unnatural, too?

Isn't setting an age on viewing pornography "unnatural?"

Yes, my hatred for that comment is on the same high level as your complete stupidity. It's immature because you have to resort to silly name calling. We're "Santorum-ing" something. Oh wow, very cool! I'd love to debate, too, but you have nothing substantial to debate.

I'm not getting smart, I actually wanted you to clarify the question.  I was using puberty as my guidelines for the urge to have sexual relations.  It is unnatural for prepubescent children to have sexual urges.

As if calling me "completely stupid" is not immature name calling.  Do you have a need to be a hypocrite? What do you think we are doing right now as we talk about this bill?  Are we not debating? And I was simply mentioning Santorum's notable record for being rather conservative on sex issues.

So you have 14 for porn access, correct? Isn't that repressive since many people experience puberty before that age?

I'm going to call you completely stupid when you start with the immature name calling and there's nothing hypocritical there. This isn't debating; this is you throwing around stupid labels like "Santoruming" when that has nothing to do with the Atlasian Senate.

By the way, being conservative on sex issues doesn't mean being repressive.

You have to draw the line somewhere, and 14 is a hell of a lot better than 18.

It would be nearly impossible to debate in Atlasia if you couldn't debate the basis of Atlasia, which is the United States.  Atlasia has been around for about two years so anything in the U.S. pre-2004 should be fair game.  Santorum's record on sex issues has been around since long before that and I agree being conservative doesn't automatically mean repressive, it is only in some cases.

Your opinion (and anyone's for that matter) is just that, your opinion. Stop trying to make it out to be more than it is.

Well according to the National Institutes of Health (American institutes that were absorbed by Atlasia), "The hormones also cause secondary sex characteristics and interest in sex." "When a healthy child is somewhere between 9 and 16 years old, he or she will enter puberty."

Look Here

So I think 14 for pornography is a reasonable compromise.  16 is the extreme end of sexual urges.

Sounds good to me. Like they'll want to look at porn at that age anyway. If they do, why shouldn't they? I like the 9 idea.

I'd support that, but I don't think it would pass very easily.  I'd estimate 80% of Atlasia's male population would break that law by 16.  That's why I think 14 is more appropriate, possibly 13.  Since under the current bill a 15  yr old and a 17 yr old could have sex, but the 15 yr old couldn't then look at porn Huh

IIRC, a 14 yr old may have sex, but not look at porn. This is truly the biggest flaw in this legislation. Now that I think about it, that is terribly hypocritical.
