Unless either the boy or his girlfriend or family consider it a problem and report it then people should leave them in peace. Wise House saying: Rules are guidelines for stupid people. Looking at all the facts i conclude: Unless the couple or the couples family, friends or neighbors make a complaint then give these people their privacy. Jeesh what a bunch of mean spirired old moralizers people can be.. honestly who cares?

Which is only like 2 people who need to defend their masculinity, but whatever. I think it's pathetic of a 22 year old woman to have sex with a 14 year old. Can't she get men her own age? You people making it sound like there’s something wrong with being a virgin over the age of 14 need to grow up.

Nobody thought much of a girl getting married at the age of 13 or 14 and start having babies... Seems like Loretta Lynn was in that age range- and Jerry Lee Lewis' first wife? and how many 14 year old girls give birth every year? I think the age of 'maturity' is set, legally, way too old- Who's correct ?- the State laws... or Mother nature? When one reaches the age of being able to father a child- or give birth... they should be considered 'mature'. They may 'not' be mentally mature- but, how many 18 year olds are?

Our society brings up sexuality very early--five year olds asked my friend about French kisses! And offers of sex are pretty hard for most teenage boys to resist. It just made me sad in high school that so many 16 year old girls were dating guys 8 or 10 years older than them.

If the oldest is under 21 then the state set age of consent comes into play. :evil: There are circumstances in which sexual relations with a person under the age of consent are not a crime (or constitutes a less serious crime).

Just because the media arbitrarily change the rules to suit themselves, doesn't mean that it is acceptable to name him (or identify his family) in public. To be honest, I'm not all that convinced that society thinks it's "ok" for an older man to date a younger woman - I met a good friend of mine, who is nearly 20 years older than me at university when I was the standard age (18-21) and he was a mature student. Any time we hung out together I would notice all of these stares and nudges. But in this case, the issue isn't so much the acceptance of age differences, it's the fact that one of the people involved was extremely young and below the legal age of consent for most countries, nevermind states.
