I picked 18. It's 16 for boys and 17 for girls over here. The reason I picked 18 is because some teenage girls at around 14 and 15 end up getting pregnant because of it and that just sucks for both her and the unborn child. You're pretty much matured enough at 17 or 18.

I would go for 16, since females mature faster than us fellas. But then again my culture allows us to date females that are 16 years old, in the Dominican Republic and Puerto rico.

But 16 years old is a good enough age imo. *votes*

Sixteen is what I voted for.
Fourteen just seems to young. You can get laid before you can even drive without an adult in the car?

Because those two things go hand in hand. Yes, I see your logic.

I wasn't saying they went hand in hand. I was just using it as an example. It put things in perspective. You need a licensed driver to drive when you are 14. That shows that 14 year olds are not independant or responsible yet. Why should they be able to have sex and possibly have a child when they'd have to rely on an adult?
