    So a 46 years old who had sex with a 30 years old would have broken the law and possibly be sent to jail? No offense but your formula is kinda r****ded.

    No, its the formula for 'weird factor' not a legal thing. People would raise eyebrows at you if you were 46 and dated a 29 year old... but if you were 46 and dated a 30 year old it wont raise so many eyebrows.. It's a society thing, if your 46 and u fall in love with a 24 year old by all means go for it, but other people will probably make comments behind your back.. or even to your face (guys will probably say good job ;) )


    So the formula will tell you if the age difference makes you a weirdo or not in society's eyes ;)

    yeah cause as long as you tell the judge "she said she was 18" then you will be fine.

    You're 21 and in college and you don't know that:

    your = denotes possession
    you're = you are
    opportunity is spelled as such
    and that 'a lot' and "as well" are two separate words?

    Please tell me you haven't taken your English classes yet.

    P.S.You're in the clear to date her if you go old school and get her parents permission.

    Thanks for making it clear that this is in fact a term paper, I could have sworn I was posting on a message board. D'oh

    btw I skipped all my English classes my first year because I hate literature. (I'm a year behind, got held back in kindergarten for.. you guessed it! I had reading issues :cool: ).

    It doesn't have to be a term paper for basic spelling and grammar. This isn't the upper echelon ****. I didn't break out the big guns by any stretch of the imagination. Kids should know this by the time they're out of middle school. They generally don't, but they should.

    Did anyone notice that if you're younger than 14 (or 13 if you insist on rounding), you have to date someone older than you according to this rule.

    Wish the girls thought this way when I was in junior high.

    Even then if shes cool with getting boned, no problem. Its not like yall will get caught or anything, the only way you could get in trouble is if she told on you and she would only do that if you pissed her off or something.

    Yep, no seventeen year old girl is ever going to get in a mood and figure it would be easy to get back at someone by telling their parents they have been having sex.

    he was talking about the second part. "if your 20" should be "if you're 20"

    but agreed that I thought the serious grammar correcting days on this board were in the past.

    As to the topic at hand, I'm in my late 20's and married. With that perspective, here is something I noticed the other day. I was driving by a highschool around lunch time I guess and a lot of kids were outside walking around. Holy moly, those m'fers are small. I mean, sure, you have a couple of big boys and such, but some of those kids look like I coudl squash them with my fingers. They looked really young.

    Maybe it can get kind of confusing for some 17/18 year olds to tell that they are that young, but I'm guessing these were freshman/sophmores...14-16, generally speaking, you can really definitely tell they are young.
