Should I?

I didn't say you were Frag, I was just making the distinction.

You have to understand that the Nethrlands isn't like the US, we are completely different when it comes to certain things. Much the same, but different.

Considering he's a brit I'm sure that'll be comforting

And again, not American. For Pete's sake, this is the second time you've done this this month alone.

No offence to our American friends, but it's irritating.

In any case, a 30's or 40's year old man preying on girls in their teens/early twenties is considerably lacking in class.

you're welcome!

Well, I saw your post, and I thought of putting something like, "Strike remembers" (which sounded offensive to you) or "The Americans themselves can tell (maybe offensive in general).

So I copped out, sorry.

It's nice yto know someone does bother to pay attention, though.

Any attention for me is good attention.

I wasn't held enough as a young girl.

Neither was I, but like any man, it make me hard as Iron; then a woman broke my heart and I became like unto steel.

If she is older then 17 what's the problem, old enough to fend for theirselves. I am 32, I'll sleep with a 17 year old girl. I will however never abuse anyone

Not all 17 year olds make good choices (most make bad ones), if you are trying to pick up 17 year olds you are pitting your own experience against their relative naivity. Also, there's no chance of a relatio nship, so the whole exercise is cynical.

Not cool really. I'm not quite 23 and I know it would be easy for me to wow 17 year old girls, I prefer a more even playing field.

I would never do such a thing, behaviour like that isn't exacly my thing.

[Samurai Waki]

This thread is quickly moving into the backroom arena.

Suffice it to say, I don't think Frags, nor the Netherlands is in the wrong on this one. Elsewise, we would have a much smaller prison population of just over 18 sex offenders. The argument is a dubious one at best.

Many people never grow up.

So we can never have sex with them?

People ('women' would probably land me some points) make poor relationship choices into their 30s and beyond. You're making a fair point, but older women can be similarly 'duped'.

This is more about intentions, IMO.

Fair points, but what kind of man in his 30's tries to have sex with a teenager, I mean actually walks into a club/coffee shop etc. and goes for a woman so much his junior?

My sister is 18, I wouldn't go below that age now, to be honest at (nearly) 23 I'm not comfortable with going after teenagers any more, they're just so "young" compared to women in their 20's. Their outlook etc. is often totally different.

Why not? I would never take advantage of her, but 18 isn't unnacceptable to me.

As long as he intends to go about it the right way and treats her with respect, I don't really have a problem with it. As long as both parties are happy, it's nobody else's business.

I understand what you're saying and I imagine a fair proportion of the guys in relationships like that are pretty sleazy but I don't think an age-gap is something that is intrinsically wrong.
