CAULIFLOWER! So tasty, cooked a bit with curry powder and salt and YUM. I do like broccoli, too, but I couldn't make them equal when my mouth says cauliflower is so much superior.
I also kind of wanted an "er, maybe? it's all too hard for me to think about" option for that last question.
I don't believe I've ever eaten cauliflower. But it can't possibly taste the same as broccoli, because it isn't as green. Broccoli is rendolent with the taste of green.
I don't actually know what the age is in Germany, but I'm assuming it's lower than the Irish 17, which I think is too high. Then again, it doesn't really make that much difference in practice, does it? To the best of my knowledge, no Irish 14-year-olds have been prosecuted for having sex with each other.
cauliflower is too often overcooked. Broccoli is too often undercooked. Cauli is quite bland and needs like cheese or something to go with it, broccoli dun't. Also I don't trust either of their spellings. I think Collyflower and Brockolly should be the new spellings. All this Y avoidance is distressing.
I like our age of consent laws now that everything is 16 (er - it is 16 for heterosexual anal intercourse as well, isn't it?) with the proviso about people in positions of responsibility not being able to sleep with people under 18. That all seems terribly appropriate to me. And that sex under 12 is statutory rape. I agree with that, too.
Mmmm... cauliflower with white sauce. And for some reason broccoli makes me bloated and rubbish so I avoid it like a big plague type thing.
I don't think the age of consent in the UK works because it gives people tii much excuse not to teach safe sex and STI awareness to people "underage". Regardless of age of consent people will always have sex when they want, and are more likely to wait if they know more about sex than if they there's an age of consent. Additionally the age of consent laws are complete bollocks because as far as I know they actually only apply to women/girls and men/boys are therefore eligible for being prosecuted for statutory rape if they're 17 and having sex with a 15 year old. Seeing as in the majority of cases girls have been shown to be more mature than boys it's hardly surprising that they are often dating, and consequently having sex with, someone older. I think I read once that France has too ages of consent and the male age was older than females, but that may have just been a teenage myth.
In the U.S. the age of consent is 18. I think it should be 16. I certaintly don't think most 16-year-old kids are ready to be having sex, but anything younger than 16 is definitely too young.
