Your opinion flies in the face of reality. One check of the public records would show you that in many places young girls marry much older men. They seek the financial stability and maturity that older men can offer.Maybe you don't get it. This is not 1950. People frown on men in their thirties dating teenagers nowadays. Especially as Moore was actually in a position of some prominence. The imbalance in maturity, knowledge, and power is way too great. It's immoral.
All (or at least the vast majority of) men are physically attracted to teenagers. Yet they understand that those teenagers are NOT to be touched, because it would be morally wrong. And that knowledge is enough to curb their natural attraction. Not so with Judge Moore, apparently.[/QUOTE]
BTW, you misspelled "allegedly".
And you fucked up your quotes.
Though it's been pretty well established that Moore has dated teenagers while in his thirties. Even he has pretty much come out and said that that is accurate.
The allegedly part comes in with Corfman and Nelson.
If you had taken the time to actually read, I had it fixed.
Dating and having sex with teenagers is a little bit different, don't you think?
Of course you don't because you have no understanding of law versus your own hysterical code of conduct.
Why would you date someone if you don't have the intention of having sex with them? Sex is kind of a big part of the dating experience.
You're, what, in your sixties or seventies? The world has moved on. The young girl-old man pairing is just weird now. That kind of shit is taboo now in most circles.
No, I am not in my 60s and 70s. The world has not moved on. You are simply allowing your Puritanist views to overcome human biology.
The evidence is all around you if you would just open your eyes. I was a high school teacher for most of the past 20 years. The girls getting knocked up in high school had baby daddies that were often in their late 20s and sometimes early 30s. Many of them were already married. Rarely was the father of their child even enrolled in the school. I had one senior last year who was pregnant with her third child and had been married since she was a freshman. A few years back, I had a girl transfer into my freshman class, and I told her she needed her parents to sign my syllabus and return it to me. She looked at me and said, "I married!" She was 15. I jokingly asked her if her husband was over 18 and she said, "Yes, he's 23!". So I told her that he could sign it!
I was in high school fewer than 10 years ago and things like that rarely happened. We thought it was insanely creepy when we knew a 15 year old was dating a 22 year old. Which is obviously still a light year from a 16 year old and a 32 year old attorney.
I don't know where you've been teaching, but that's not at all normal.
