<!--QuoteBegin-Raja+Jan 5 2005, 12:55 PM-->QUOTE(Raja @ Jan 5 2005, 12:55 PM)<!--QuoteEBegin--> Can I ask you one simple question :
One day, if your girl child, probably 15 years, comes back to you saying that she is pregnant, how will you feel ? <!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
Raja, now I see where you are coming from.. I shall leave it to others to answer your argument satisfactorily.. however, like I suspected, you have asked me a question which involves a female relative of mine (in this case a hypothetical daughter.) Here is my answer.
All through your post you had conveniently missed out the RESPONSIBILTY part that I was harping about.
If my daughter came home and announced she were pregnant, my first question would be "Were you responsible in your actions?" If she were responsible, then the situation would not happen. If it is not consentual,the irresponsible MALE can be brought to his knees before the law for raping a minor.
You still fail to see the point and think that all teen-pregnancies are caused by magic. It involves a conniving male too (who is irresponsible).
I thought I could make you see my point, but looks like it's more than my cup of tea.
