Argument why age-of-consent-to-be-a-porn-star should be raised to 65.
"Young men would begin to think of sex as something their grandparents do to make a little cash and could put the energy they once used to search for porn on the Internet into fighting terrorism or curing cancer or pursuing more difficult quests on World of Warcraft.
Young women would once again be coddled and protected from having to make decisions that their unformed minds can't handle.
Grandma and grandpa would no longer have to worry how to pay for their prescription medications.
And if the terrorists no longer saw our country as being so decadent, perhaps they would finally leave us alone ..."
The original article spawning this amusement is at WSJ. Okay, so I think her argument is stupid. I like the grandparent-porn argument much better.
As the satirist points out, if a girl's old enough to go volunteer to get shot at in Iraq, who cares if she's flashin' some poontang for the camera? Some of us weren't stupid enough to do that, and don't need to worry about it haunting us the rest of our lives. Of course, we've done other monumentally stupid things, they just aren't on YouTube.
