am i the only one who feels sorry for the forrest teacher dude going to jail?

[martyn20]

I guess that's what nature intended.

So what if she is 13, or 10, or even younger?

I guess that's what nature intended.

I feel sick.

I doubt it. There are girls in South America and Africa who are mothers at 13, but their bodies are not strong enough for childbirth. Maternal & infant mortality is high.

Do you have a daughter?

As part of my classics degree, we studied in depth Greek and roman society. Boys as young as 8 were offered to wealthy aristocrats as exchange for influence and social mobility by their parents. Girls not so much!

Maybe doug's attitude belongs in this period, ie 700 bce! Time for you to back out of this doug I think.

Are you asking on the offchance I'll fix up a date? Sorry to disappoint but no and even if I did...

 

[dougdeep]

I'm just asking questions. I've already stated that the man deserved his prison sentence. I'm just amazed that so many people think that laws are always right.

I had to chuckle at that one, doug fell into that.

I have two daughters as you know doug....I am not sure what point you are trying to make.

If it was a teacher doing this with my daughter, I would have rearranged his bollocks and he would have ended up wearing them as earrings.

 

[dougdeep]

Yes. And a granddaughter. Perhaps you should re-read my posts as I think you are going off on a tangent from what I have said.

Me too.

He is going down for a five and a half year stretch.

Beats his previous one which was five and a half inches.

If you have said he deserved it then why do you think he did? If I have read your arguments correctly you think that she's not a child but a woman. In which case all he has done is breach a trust as a teacher. Morally reprehensible but hardly a crime. You're the one insinuating the law is wrong on this one so why does he deserve prison?

 

[martyn20]

Yes. And a granddaughter. Perhaps you should re-read my posts as I think you are going off on a tangent from what I have said.

And you would be happy for a man to decide when your children and grand children become adults by sleeping with them? No matter the age?
As you said 'I guess that's what nature intended.'

Oh really? Why's that?

I never said that. Or meant it.
