Re: Yes and a few thoughts

Hm.

502364:

but if you question the status of 'minor', being a person of reduced understanding, reduced competency, reduced responsibility and even reduced rights, you have to find some other way to account for the situation of a child dependent on adults. what way would that be? the child is a prisoner? a hobby?

But, 502361:

i think it's artificial to pretend that maa's are somehow significantly constituted of these two groups, 'pro' and 'anti' 'choice'. i also think there are more important things to occupy our attention. unlike Iron Marxist, i'm more focused on maa's as a disadvantaged minority than i am on maa's a a group cruelly and arbitrarily deprived of the right to seduce children.

How do your own arguments about a "pro" and an "anti" camp NOT apply to a "minor" and "adult" distinction.

To me, they evidently do.
