Is a 31 year old looking at a 15 year old wrong?

Just a discussion that has been going on in another thread.

Is it right or wrong...morally...for a 31 year old to look at a 15 year old?

By look, I don't mean glance...but lust over or fall for?

Yay or nay?

I'm going for yay for what it's worth.

    It's illegal and so wrong in the eyes of the law, of course. What's the point here?

    In a nutshell - Yes Steve IMO it is wrong (as in immoral) for a 31 year old man to view a 15 year old girl in a sexual way.

    Some posters have found ways and means of justifying it :eek:

    (I myself was able to kind of rationionalise it from the 15 year olds perpective!!)

    Does it become ok once they turn 16?

    It's probably normal to take in an attractive person whatever the age. To become sexually obsessed with or to want to take it further is kind of creepy.

    But it is disturbing and worrying that a 31 year old could look at a teenager in that way.

    That's the point I'm trying to make, but it seemed to lost on some.

    I even got a definition of the word look, because one FM was either trying to be a smart alec by saying it's OK to look in the direction of 15 year olds or they are a bit morally corrupt in claiming that it's fne so long as you don't do anything to said 15 year old.

    Think I know what you are getting at here.

    Many girls at age 15 have fully developed breasts, have almost lost their childlike looks and tend to wear "sexy" outfits to impress the boys.

    It's possible a grown man could find this attractive.
    There will be loads of men who will say "never" but I know many would have a quick, nervous glance.

    How would this 31 year old know if the girl in question is 15, would he ask to see her birth certificate first? I only ask because some of the schoolgirls I see when coming back from work look nigh on 18, let alone 15.

    child porn is illegal, i presumed 'lusting over' was what was implied here.

    I cant really be f*cked with this dumbass thread anyway, as it is trollbait.

    My grandpa once told me Anna Kournikova was a little hottie. I believe she had barely turned 16 at that point. But thats OK right? A few weeks before, when she was 15, he should have been castrated right?

    Not really - but it's not illegal (more just a question of morality and people's invidual opinions - I myself am not keen on big age gaps when girls are just of age - experience makes me question what a 32 year old guy wants with a 16 year old girl :o)

    It is not illegal to "look" at anyone - if it was how would you identify a 15 year as a 15 year old - when I was 15 I did my best to look older and was quite often mistaken for a 18 year old if not older

    So why do people get done for having pictures of underage girls ( and boys ) on their computers then ?

    In this particular case, the 31 year old would have found out she was 15 because of the relation he developed with her.

    I think it's fine, assuming the 15-year-old is post-pubescent.

    Doing anything about it is (probably) morally wrong, but looking at a healthy teenager and thinking they're attractive is....pretty much the human condition. It's biology.

    Most people over 30 wouldn't "fall for" a teenager because their immaturity and the stage of life they're at and so on would be a turn-off, though.

    It certainly is. Asked and answered in dozens, perhaps hundreds of similar threads in recent years.

    To be fair the OP is asking a genuine question inspired by another thread (and at the request of several posters they asked the OP to start his own thread) so don't be too harsh on him!!

    If you can't be "f*ucked with this dumbass thread" then why post in it?

    It was started at the request of other FM, so kindly keep your "dumbass" posts away thanks very much.

    They don't. They get done for having pictures of naked underage girls and boys, sometimes having sex/ being abused. Pictures of 15-year-olds in general aren't illegal :D
    In this particular case, the 31 year old would have found out she was 15 because of the relation he developed with her.
    And since you're bringing this particular case into it, it should also be pointed out that they didn't start dating, far less having sex, till after she was 16. (I don't think the age makes much difference, but you seem to be quite obsessed with the fact she was a couple of weeks under 16.)
