I find it rather amusing how people react.
In 27 (TWENTY SEVEN) European countries this would've been deemed completely legal. No questions asked. Everyone would go about their day as usual. No news stories. No sackings. Nothing, but because here in the UK it's 16 everyone is going mad. What makes the UK age right?
If he left it a few months until she was 16, again he's fine to pound the fuck out of her. What difference do those months make? What does she learn? What does she develop?
When you put it in to perspective it gets rather tedious. I understand the laws there to protect children, but in my eyes this wasn't a child and they did not need protecting.
