Thanks, Rambi, I was being funny, or at least trying to be funny. I don't believe in prosecuting teenagers for consensual sex, and I don't believe in beating them, either.

I don't believe in calling people "murderers" because they are pro-choice, either. I suppose it's fair to think that someone who has an abortion committed murder, but being pro-choice doesn't mean you've had an abortion.

To be completely consistent, IMO, using the birth control pill makes you a "murderer" because it prevents fertilized eggs from implanting. So if any of these gentlemen's wives use the pill, to be consistent, these men and their wives should be called "murderers." And I am serious about that one. But I don't think they are murderers, myself.

No no Penni, this place is peaceful, interesting, lighthearted and wonderful ever since they added that "ignore" feature to SI. :-)
