when dick and sea get in a discussion it NEVER ends lol.
"Don't ask a question if you can't handle the answer".
Lol, you're the one who said they were comparable in the first place. You just proved they actually aren't. ...
If psychology actually dictates that a teenager is emotionally mature and experienced enough to be able to decide whether or not to have sex with a much older person, then psychology is wrong in that respect, IMO (and I say this from direct experience). You're welcome to keep believing your version of it, I don't care about convincing you. I know how it is, so... yeah. Agree to disagree.As for different "types" of emotional maturity...what the hell, I'll bite. Here are the 4 types of emotional maturity that pop up in psychological literature (courtesy of psychologist Dr. Bessell).
- Awareness
- Relating
- Competence
- Integrity
If you lack awareness when handling multimillion dollar equipment and TS data that has international implications you will miss a number of details related to the proper handling and care of what it is you're handling. If you have no ability to relate to people you won't be able to develop the teamwork that's required to complete a big job or handle large amounts of data. If you lack competence you'll fukk up at your job and shit will go boom. If you lack integrity everything from an inaccurate relaying of critical data to the right person to lying about a problem that needs to be fixed for everyone's safety can go wrong and fukk everybody up. The jobs I am talking about require EVERY type of emotional maturity, and every type of maturity in general. Literally every which way you cut the "emotional maturity" argument, everything I've said about this issue still applies - ocean vs. shotglass and blah blah blah.
The only thing to lol about here is you trying to re-write the post you're quoting in order to have a case against it. I didn't "prove that they weren't comparable". I said that if you can handle the former you can probably handle the latter very easily, the only thing I proved is that they are different things in spite of the fact. At no point did I bring a lack of comparability into the equation, I merely pointed out the differences.
Psychology doesn't dictate that a teenager is emotionally mature and experienced enough to be able to decide whether or not to have sex with a much older person. What it dictates is that the issue is nowhere near as black and white as "in your late teens you are automatically mature enough" or "in your late teens you are automatically not mature enough".Originally Posted by searock
lol didnt realize. the conversation is still boring. i didnt really get involved in the debate
"Don't ask a question if you can't handle the answer".
Interesting way to phrase the problem. If my 17 year old daughter *chose to* have sex with a 35 year old man, I would discuss it *with her*. Of course, I don't have a daughter, but I do have a very open communication with my son. I imagine if I had a daughter it would be the same. I would want her to understand her reasons for her behaviour. If she honestly felt is was a good decision, I would have to support her even if I disagreed (I would make sure she was on birth control). I certainly wouldn't make her feel bad about it. I'm a great believer in personal responsibility. It's not my job to change the behaviour of the 35 year old, but to raise my offspring to make reasonable decisions.
You can't ever really control another person, only yourself. That includes one's children once they become of the age of reason. You can guide, suggest, and lead by example but you can't ever control. Those who try that route are parenting-fails, IMO.

Talk to your parents, so the 35 year old dude doesn't contact you anymore, he probably ****ed other teens before you.
