24. I voted no for more than one reason

First of all, up here - 16 is the age of consent.

different provinces, different countries have varied scales of what is defined to be an "adult".

I was surprised when I went to California in 1979 that the age of consent was 21 - same for drinking.

So I sinned according to the "law"

I think that males are less traumatized by an early sexual relationship because we males seem to be less emotionally attached to the sex act -

I thought different when I was Charles age, but I'm almost 60 now

I would have agreed with Charles back then, not now - - -

Sometimes you just have to live to learn
