So you find this to be offensive because the government tells you to find it offensive? Such a good slave ! newsflash : Where you are from using SR is illegal, so why are you here, since on other matters you let the government think for you ? So far this thread has done a good job of reaffirming my suspicion that people who say 18+ are females or older males  Two things I find strikingly funny: A. The 'phile' that includes 18 starts at 17, so people who say 18 but not 17 are letting government think for them B. Sexual development peaks at 14.5 so people who say they are not sexually attracted to this age are liars as well (although to be fair sexual attraction is only part of the equation in regards to how young would you go, mental development is the more important thing to take into consideration, and that seems to be adequate at 15) In all seriousness though, you are clearly falling victim to the is/ought fallacy: X IS Y , so X OUGHT to be Y is a fallacy, that I am amazed so many people fail to see. jews are being exterminated so jews ought to be exterminated https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Is%E2%80%93ought_problem https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naturalistic_fallacy such complete and utter lack of having an opinion or ability to think independently is disgusting to me
