Anyway we will agree to disagree. We all agree on 1 thing, he is a sick individual.

Ok but you can't really disagree with an actual defined word
Yeh but my definition is she's still a child. Anyway were going round in circles here.

80% of under 15s aren't virgins
Wouldn't say 80% but yeah most aren't
Don't see the relevance though
From the above linked article:
Joshua Rozenberg, legal expert, previously explained to the Telegraph: “When the victim is 13 or over, but under 16, no offence is committed if the victim consents and the defendant believes, on reasonable grounds, that the child is at least 16.”
This section of the Sexual Offences act is riddled with difficulties. And this latest case has made me wonder whether we shouldn’t be calling for an overhaul.
Even in the description of the law, Rozenberg refers to the victim as a ‘child’.
And anyone aged 13, 14, or even 15 is still a child. I think sometimes we forget how young teenagers can be. They may be on the brink of maturity, but they’re still learning about the world and likely still getting pocket money.
So going by the words of a 'legal expert', the girl being 15 is still a child. Which means Johnson is a child molester, kiddie fiddler or whatever you want to call him.

The 2 dictionaries above define the word paedophile as 'a person sexually attracted to children' and the word is commonly used to describe someone who is sexually attracted to children. As the girl was at the time classed as a child then the most common term used would be 'paedophile'. That is what the media will report upon his conviction.

He'll get a career out in China or Russia probs.

16 is just an arbitrary number. Girls mature much earlier than 16.
It's a bit like speeding. 70 is the arbitrary limit but most people drive well over and you can't be prosecuted if you drive just over 70.
There has to be some leeway

Feck me.

hope the police have you under surveillance
I don't know any of the facts to be honest. Is there a link to the iron clad facts?

I used to like him as a player, thinking he was very talented and that he could on to big things. This was while he was at City. No wonder his career has turned out the way it has. Seems to have concerned himself too much with outside-of-football matters. And that's before condemning him for getting involved with kids.
