I wanted to star this but as a rape victim my life is worth living.

I get your point. I just don’t agree with the solution you propose. I don’t think you fully understand mine, either. If we reduced or eliminated age of consent, I am nearly certain that a lot of innocent children would be further exploited. I am sorry for the situations the youth you are describing are in, but it is…

You are complaining about drawing lines at certain ages while saying it’s ok to draw a line at twelve. How inconsistent.

If they're going with white, go all the way and cast Sandra bullock
