I don't believe this apples V. oranges, so we will just have to disagree on this. I don't see any reason why a little girl should not be a sexual partner and I see what is called "grooming" simply as a way of making her comfortable enough to discover that side of herself with an adult male. Believe me, the only thing stopping half the people on this site, including me, from making love to LGs is the fact that it's illegal. It will continue to stop me, but that doesn't mean I agree with it. It is society's hang up, not mine.

After all, what is any kind of dating besides "grooming"? You put your best foot forward, you romance, you gain trust... all for the purpose of developing a relationship that includes sexual intimacy. If you really believe that a child should have control over their lives, why is it wrong to treat them the same way you treat an adult woman when entering into a relationship? She is either an equal human being or she is not. It is either an apple OR an orange.
