I think that all you proved is that you are an argumentative idiot with debatable sexual morals.

I don't support underage sex, I discourage my daughter and anyone else to underage sex. I think underage sex is a disgusting and unhealthy addiction and I don't give any implicit or explicit license to. Yet I have no right to impose my views on other people, so I don't think it should be penalized. Though it looks a little funny I should say : I don't think it should be penalized. I'd hate to see an underage kid in prison, I don't think that is correct. BTW, probably the age you consider "underage sex", and the one I would consider it are very different and I don't see why I should let your notions of underage have any bearing on the education of MY kids. Now, are you happy? Do you need more examples? > -----Original Message----- > From: profox-boun...@leafe.com [mailto:profox-boun...@leafe.com] On Behalf > Of Ricardo Aráoz > Sent: Friday, 9 April 2010 10:11 AM > To: ProFox Email List > Subject: Re: [OT] You picked a fine time to lead us... > > geoff wrote: > >> If you actually read what I say you will notice that I wasnt making it a >> hard and fast rule.
