Not quite. My understanding of Canadian age of consent laws are that there is no criminal activity in having sex with someone two years younger than you, or older. So, 14 year olds can have sex with say, a 16 year old, and there is no criminal activity going on. However, a 14 year old having sex with an 18 year old would be considered statutory rape.
I think it's safe to say that at 14 you had quite different sexual fantasies compared to me and my friends.
RA I truly don't know whether to a)Belt you for making such an easy joke or b)To congradulate you on an EXCELLENT snap I know I'll do both Although I doubt you'd have made that same joke if Debra was a man named Derek
Yeah I guess you can say he's earning his "A" with a nice big "O" *You guys aren't the only ones who can make witty sex jokes*
That is where the double standard lies. It's under the assumption that underage males consent, while underage females do not consent. Or if they do consent, they didn't really mean to consent, that they were forced in some way. Teenage Girls are still "vunerable." Teenage boys however are not? Well, sometimes they just fully consent, nothing hidden behind it. Kids that age have hormones like everyone else. What makes it wrong is the adult that chooses to partake in the act. Gender should play no role in punishment.
Very true on that Funkatron101 She knew what she was doing was wrong,the teen knew it was wrong.Only Debra had the smarts to keep her fool mouth shut.And the teen had to brag to his friends
On topic: Since she was just starting to undergo treatment for bi-poler disorder she can't be convicted due to her mental state. On the other hand... Lucky ass 14 year old bastard.
Dude, that's way too high. The fact that Shaun had to say he was making a witty sex joke drops it to at least a 2.6
Where an accused is charged with an offence under section 151 (Sexual Interference) or 152 (Invitation to sexual touching) or subsection 153(1) (Sexual exploitation), 160(3) (Bestiality in presence of or by child) or 173(2) (Indecent acts) or is charged with an offence under section 271 (Sexual assault), 272 (Sexual assault with a weapon, threats to a third party or causing bodily harm) or 273 (Aggravated sexual assault) in respect of a complainant under the age of fourteen years, it is not a defence that the complainant consented to the activity that forms the subject-matter of the charge. {Criminal Code of Canada, R.S.C. 1985, c. C-46, section 150.1 (1), Current to November 24, 2005}
yeah, but all it says is 14. i'm pretty sure the 2 years thing where it's legal when you're 16 and 14 but not 18 and 14 is an urban legend made up by parents to keep 14 year old girls from dating high school boys.
See, I'm reading it as, under the age of 14, you cannot use "consent" as a defence in a criminal trial. Over the age, I suppose it's a defence that the defendant could make. I did indeed read something about the two year range in the criminal code when I last got into a discussion about this. I'll look it up and try to find it.
