uuuhhh mmmph
Too much post-kickboxing pizza and rootbeer. My taut little belly is all swollen.
So, there's this sixteen year old kid who is a big fan of my penis' LJ. He comments in there all the time and I pretty much ignore him because his presence makes me feel uncomfortable, like a dirty old man. Technically, I don't subscribe to the notion that arbitrary age restrictions should be applied to any situation; I know when I was sixteen I was mature enough to consent to just about anything knowing full well the ramifications of my actions. I also know people in their late twenties who are still incapable of giving an informed consent to anything and everything (I am in fact best friends with just such a person). But even so, we live in a country with laws and one wonders where the line is drawn. Where does not-so-witty banter under the guise of a talking penis fit into the moral guidelines set forth by our legislature?
