Few were whining for gay marriage 30 years ago. We just need a bit more often opening of the American mind....
You are clinging to your strawman, aren't you? People changed their opinion of what consenting adults do. In this case, that does not apply. But keep ranting about pedophiles and gays being the same. I'm sure Stevie can use the company.
His point about how rapid change is, is valid.
People did not change "their view of what consenting adults do" they had their views of right and wrong changed.
The definition of what is considered a consenting adult has changed in my lifetime, who is to say it won't change again.
Indeed, it is likely to.
And I have no problem with views changing concerning consenting adults. But this case is not about consenting adults.
Also, we have become much more accepting of various sexual activities and sexualities. But at the same time we have become more and more protective of children. So the trend has been moving towards greater protections of children, not lesser.
