On the offchance this isn't bait and you're not a paedophile, it's because when children are involved the power dynamics in the relationsip become extremely unhealthy to the point where consent is always going to be questionable. Children have very little autonomy, and this makes it easy for adults to get them to do whatever they want. The most obvious example is a parent essentially deciding if they want to raise a child themselves or send it to the orphanage. Not going to let me stick my weewee in your pooper, little Timmy? Then I hope you like the taste of porridge.

Another point is children aren't smart enough to make good decisions, not until they've fully mentally matured, and when they have fully mentally matured they tend to be past the age of consent anyway. An eight year old doesn't understand the implications of what you want from them. No, they don't. They just don't.

Then there's intercourse between a child and someone who's had an extremely prominent position in their life, such as a parent, guardian, or teacher. These people are responsible for steering the child's mental state throughout their life, and if you don't think that that could make things a bit fucked up then I don't know what to tell you.

All these things together basically means that children can't be in a position where they can consent, in the same way as an adult can't consent whilst on drugs. That means it's rape, and rape is, you will agree, mentally harmful.

>but 17/16/15/14/13 year olds are mature-

Yeah, and that's why in many countries children of those ages are above the age of consent. Different countries think children will have become grown at different ages. In many cases they also then attach a few years on the end to make doubly sure.

What's your opinion on Rind et al.?
If children can't consent and rape is always harmful how do you explain children experimenting with each other? Voluntary sexual behavior obviously exists in children.

>>2752394
It's essentially the same as two very drunk people sleeping with one another on the consent front. As for harmful... I have no idea what effect if any that behaviour has on the child in the long term, but just because the kids are doing it doesn't mean it's good for them. I have a fear of burning because I once scalded my entire right arm horribly when I was a child- me doing it voluntarily didn't make it not mentally damaging.

Children obviously all develop at different speeds, some faster than others. The AoC is just a point where you can say "all of these people have functioning brains so you can bang them". Individual assessments could I suppose be done, but they'd be complex and ultimately not necessary in any way.

He outperformed most of his contemporaries, his predecessor Sir John French cracked under the pressure of the same position, the French went through something like 5 commanders during the war.

It is easier to fly to the moon than land into Antarctica.

There are flights to Antarctica every year, we've flown to the moon like, 8 times? In human history? And you have to build a disposable craft each time? No.

this, Poland, Czechoslovakia and Hungary would all flip to NATO or just stop fighting all together. Neither would want to fight for the USSR or communism. The 3 countries populations felt oppressed and viewed the Russians as occupiers, not liberators.

iirc there was a purge in the early 80s in both Hungary and Romania because there were a large number of enlisted men and NCO's who belonged to underground liberation movements

I don't think anyone believes Versailles was harsh. The French wanted to go much further but David Lloyd George intervened and softened it down.

Imagine if it was Brest levels harsh. Germs are hypocrites to the max.

They say the winners write history, but they forget about how much damage a butthurt loser can do if nobody else cares enough to stop them from raping the historical record.

This is incidentally the same disease plaguing historiography of the American civil war

It differs from person to person and culture to culture. What kind of question is this.

I fear nothing, except the fear itself.

>>2759701
So what do you consider to be fear then?

>>2759697
Ok, but why would a certain culture find it scary? Is it fate related, pain related? What makes the visual scary? What's the context behind the fear?
