Please take what Im about to ask for what it is, which is an American asking UK members a question What’s the age of sexual consent? In America, it varies from state to state. For example, in my state of Indiana, it's 16, although there's a bunch of rules regarding consent and the age between people. The long and short of it, though, is... why? Here in America we have federal laws that supercede state laws, 18 is the legal age. My question is for UK citizens Edit: as for why, im not touching that.

Yeah we have a kinda low age of consent but you can't have nudes of anyone under 18, so I don't know why we don't move the age up. But even knowing that we don't know if he did anything here or if it was in the US, or any of the other details, so please no one take that age of consent and give him a free pass for it.

Its the same here in the states when a man is more than a few years senior to an 18 year old girl, but at the end of the day it is what it is.

Obviously I am a fan of marty and would be deeply disappointed,I feel like recent events incline me to take it at face value but I would rather wait for solid proof.Probably changing name and picture just to be safe for now I mean your attitude isnt the worst to have. But as long as you sympathize with the victim then that's fine. I'm just finding out about the Marty thing too and I'm shook It is good to remember that it is a twitter account that takes anonymous complaints I could go there and accuse wrestler I dislike. But I will also not attack the twitter account because it can be a safe space to get attention to real cases. But I'm not gonna believe straight away Marty was paid in underage sex because of anonymous claims

The Marty rumors have been around for quite some time so I'm not surprised it's coming to light. Wait there's more accusations of that? Sweet jesus that's horrible Mind you, I've never seen concrete evidence, but word has been going around on Twitter for a few years if not longer. Not to paint it with a brush, but it seems like it's a UK scene thing with past and current revelations

But I understand your skepticism

I seriously can not believe all of this stuff that is coming out tonight. These are guys I have been watching and supporting for four or five years now, and it is heartbreaking to see this. My heart breaks for the victims and, if this is all true, I feel so f***ing angry and so f***ing betrayed that I supported and even admired some of these people being accused of these awful acts.

Well take a deep breath and relax my guy. No need to burn your tees and raise your blood pressure just yet. Wait for something more concrete to come about before spiking, ya?

I dont feel like it should be a topic you should avoid, as long as you keep it to legal and scientific arguments. the age of consent is mostly 16 but with children protection laws in effect worldwide,I feel like there must be some logic behind that. And if it is wrong and it is needed to change you should know what to argue.

And if it is wrong and it is needed to change you should know what to argue. Looked it up because I didn't know much of the history, and it seems like, astonishingly, the 16 age is actually raised from what it was, a leftover of the 1800s. The only time an age of consent has been lowered in the UK is in 2001 when they equalised ages of consent for same-sex/opposite-sex relations, rather than 21 being the legal age for same-sex relations.
