TEEN SEX UPDATE: Rishawn Biddle weighs in.

TEEN SEX UPDATE UPDATE! Robert George, over at The Corner, observes:

“Teen” sex is a relatively recent phenomenon because the “teenager” is a recent phenomenon. For all intents and purposes, teenagers are a 20th century creation, maybe even second half of the 20th century at that. Consider Teddy Roosevelt and George H.W. Bush were men doing manly things (like going off to war and such) well before their 20th birthdays. “Teendom” is a conceit of the post-war suburban leisure class. Furthermore, there is an interesting tension in society’s where we insist that teenagers be treated as children when it comes to sex, but as adults when it comes to murder.

Yes, I had meant to point out that contradiction myself.
