Do you agree with the age limit for legal gay sex?

[Rory]

Yeah but you still have gay sex, well when you're the right age if you see where I'm coming from.

Yeah

It considers that bum sex is bestiality, oral sex isn't far behind and the spread of STIs e.g. AIDs, HIV etc. There's groups of gays in places like America that want there to be no legal age limit for gays so they can have sex with children

The consentual age of straight sex is 16, purely because that is when people are classed to be an adult and therefore are old and mature enough to deal with any consequences or reults from having sex, ie. pregnancy, std's.

However, the age of consentual age for homosexual intercourse is 21, even though that would mean they are 5 years of the age of being classed to being an adult.

By having straight sex at the age of 16, you can end up with a baby, whereas if you have homosexual sex, you can only get at the worst case scenario - an std.

However, you can still get std's through straight sex, therefore I fail to see where the whole point of it being about STD's is, as you still have just as much chance of catching one with the opposite sex, than that of which you do of the same.


Personally, I'm not gay but I do still feel it's quite out of order, and that all of us should be treated as equals. This worl is always going on about fairness, so I fail to understand how they allow hetrosexuals to have sex 5 years younger than homosexuals, for no real prupose apart from the fact that this world is still infact biased and discriminative.

I think It's a bit much for the government to expect hormonal teens to wait till they're as old as 21 before they have sex.

Lol exactly. The laws are even broke with hetrosexual intercourse, and that's only waiting for the age of 16 - so what's the chance of people waiting till their 21?

Personally, I don't think it's anything about how old you are. I feel it's about the person you are with, how much you are in love with them and whether you personally feel ready or not.

[Lubricant]

If you're old enough to have straight sex then you should be old enough to have gay sex. Is the age limit here 21 or is that only in America?

I'm quite certain it's UK. US laws change from state to state.

[iluvben]

Yeah I sort of agree , because surposidly there is more risks.

[Jim Rotates]

why is it 5 years older than straight sex? :S.

[arouse]

The people who set the age are obviously just trying to look concerned/good for the older public. They know damn right that the majority of people wont wait until the age of 21 before having intercourse, it's a fact. I definitely know I'm not waiting until I'm 21 before having it, it's ridiculous.
