And yet if we asked should 16 year olds be allowed to consent to sexual activity we would get a resounding no. We feel that they are not capable of handling sex but can make policy?
I’m sorry, I feel for young people and I do my best to vote for my daughter, but having literal children ain’t going to fix shit IMO. Probably just have kids voting down parental voting lines anyways. Like family members won’t pressure them.
Again I emphasize but this isn’t the way.

??? I thought age of consent in Australia was 16?
…just checked depends on the state but uh… Yeah we do let some 16yo decide if they want to have sex. 🤷🏻♀️

So I was unaware, and I guess that’s their choice to make. I’m not sure I’m okay with saying it’s okay for an adult to have sex with a 16 year old but that’s their choice I guess.
