Even now in NY the age of consent is 17

In my state it's 16 and they recently met to decide if they wanted to raise it to 18... and decided not to.

There was actually a news story a few months back about how the cops had to let a 40 year old who met with and had sex with a 16 year old girl on the internet go much to the complaint of the father because as far as the state was concerned.. the latter was legally an adult and could make her own sexual choices.

The idea that this stuff is wrong is newer than you might think. I know it sickens me too

This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

Anon is often crazy.
Anon is often depressed.
Anon frequently shares thoughts that are immature, offensive, or incomprehensible.

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.
