Oops, my bad, thought this was the abortion thread. Disregard.

Are you saying a 14 year old girl has the wherewithal to have complete sexual autonomy over her body? How young are you willing go with that statement? I can understand how she may have felt in control and has no regrets about it, but does that make Bowie and Page any less of a predator? Isn't the exact reason guys go after really young girls is because they are dumb and easy to manipulate? Page basically kept this girl hidden in his luggage, so it's hard for me to think this was all that acceptable at the time. I think 14 year olds getting married would be more acceptable in Page's grandparents time, but not his own.
