Age can define developmental maturity, that is, when someone's grown to the age at which they cease to grow and thereby begin the ageing process. So under-18s can't vote, for instance, because they're 'still developing' and 'don't have the capacity to make decisions'. So yes, I think age restrictions are silly I think they ought to be abolished because there are plenty of people who don't have the privilege of waiting until such and such age to begin their adult lives. Many people I know under the legal age have had to 'grow up' early. So even practically it doesn't make sense for those without certain types of privilege. Side: Yes. There silly.

As a general rule wisdom and discerning judgment comes with the maturing of age. Although the popular acceptance of this belief is far from being infallible it is a fairly reliable rule of thumb measurement upon which to base someone's competence to fulfill a given function. The fallibility of this over optimistic trust is epitomized in THE IMBECILE. Joseph R. Biden was;- An Embryo IMBECILE, An Infant IMBECILE, A Toddler IMBECILE, A Child IMBECILE, An adolescent IMBECILE, A Teenage IMBECILE, An Adult IMBECILE, A middle aged IMBECILE, A Geriatric IMBECILE, and A Methuselah IMBECILE. Side: No. We need them.

Well, Back in my country of origin this most recent woke offense has caused the cancellation the traditional ARSE KICKING COMPETITION in the little village of Ballydung, County Manure as the banning of one legged competitors due to their physical disability was deemed to be a crime of inequity under the Ablest Act 2023. Side: No. We need them.
Age restrictions were invented for a reason. It actually protects young people from making mistakes. The simplest example is access to a dating site. What is it you ask? But practice shows that the restriction of teenagers has a positive effect on the mental state. Restrictions are needed even if it's just hookup chat rooms - https://www.nastyhookups.com/hookup/ Side: No. We need them.

You realize a pedophile is someone who is 16 or older who is sexually attracted to a prepubescent people who are 13 and younger, and they have to be exactly 5 or more years younger. Most don't even act on there sexual attraction either. It's a disorder not a crime, which I don't have it. Please don't call people names if you don't know them either or I will ban you from my chat. Side: Yes. There silly.
