Default Government stupidity, on age of consent

etc.
So, if the age of consent is between fifteen and seventeen, almost everywhere in the world, why can't under eighteens usualy purchase pornography?

Quote:
X18+ (Pornographic) – People under 18 cannot see, buy or rent these videos and DVDs.
Link.

So, legally, they can't buy porn, but they can consent to being in it.

Not a major political issue, but an example of some serious stupidity.

No, actually, I don't care at all about who can and cannot buy porn. I just think it's funny. Actually, maybe someone should move this over to political humor.

Hmmmm...
Good point really.
They can have sex, but they can't watch it happening.
They can have babies out of wedlock and spread disease. But they can't have jerking material.

That is a pretty ridiculous thing.

Mmm I agree, the age should rise to 18, for consistency.

When you stop and think about it that doesn't make sense. How can you be in the magazine you can't buy.

Well i suppose a child actor can be in an R rated movie that he or she can't see. Is that the same?
