@Gibby Gibson Again, I'm not advocating for what you are accusing me of advocating for. If you continue to accuse me of advocating for it when I'm not then you obviously aren't trying to understand the conversation and I'll take your argument as purposefully bad faith.
If your brain isn't fully developed until 25 then make 25 the age of adulthood. No? Because you want to do all sorts of adult stuff before then and then claim zero responsibility? See, no matter which way you slice this people are going to be pis*** off. 22 year olds will be pis*** off that they aren't yet considered "adults" in your system while the same 22 year olds don't want to have the responsibility of being an adult until they are 45 (and maybe not even then). Brain development is a slow process and all people like you do is point to our current system and say, "This law makes this idea moral and good" whereas a guy like me looks at the underlying issues and does my best to understand the nuance of them.
Where I would partially agree with you is that brain development takes time which is why minors shouldn't be dating or sleeping together. If you cannot accept adult level responsibility than you shouldn't be allowed to make adult level decisions. When you have two minors sleeping around who can't take adult levels of responsibility that is worse than when one of the two people can actually accept that responsibility.
