But seriously, there is a line between be able to have sex, and being responsible enough to have sex. 12 year children are not responsible enough.
What's your point? I wasn't saying anything about whether or not they should... only that they're going to want to, whether they're exposed to television or not.
Ever see the forty year old virgin? If you think that all people automatically become sexually active when reaching a certain age, your living in a dream world.
Yeah, that movie's a stirring insight into biology. I remember when I lost my virginity, and reality warped around me so that all my friends could run in and sing
Age of Aquarius.
That being said, I didn't say everyone loses their virginity the second they get horny. Only that the fact of being a teenager makes a person hornier than every episode of
Lilo & Stitch combined (or whatever they're showing on the Disney Channel these days).
You speak from experience?
Having been a teenager who had sex with other teenagers? Sure.
