Not quite as extreme as the age-of-consent issue (let alone the "stoning"  ), but it is still the same point. |
Well, yeah but I think that sex is as dangerous for all ages all over the world. I think the limit is perfect at 13 in all countries. When it comes to alcohol, it should be different in different countries. I think different limits are very important.
