Most people at the age of 15 have pretty much completed their emotional, social and sexual development.

Oh Dear.

Exactly.

Age and brain power are not related.

Most people at the age of 15 have pretty much completed their emotional, social and sexual development.

So what happened to you lot then?

Have you abolished Biology in your universe? Most authorities agree that women complete puberty quicker but it still takes to around 16-17 unlike 17-18 for boys.

And we're only talking about physical changes here, not mental.
Most twenty year olds and some 30somethings are still completely immature, let alone teenagers.

Reading this thread it's hardly surprising that in that program last night where the police set up stings to catch paedophiles on the net, the two that were caught were in IT.

Any regulars disappeared suddenly?

To wander off-topic slightly, if true, how come 'stings' are allowed on the net and not on the streets? Or maybe they are? Aren't there entrapment laws? I always thought coppers should be able to park say unlocked bicycles and be able to collar any perps that steal them.

Nonsense!

My point was that by age 15 you are pretty much as evolved, in whatever axis, as you're ever going to be,

[TimberWolf]

I think it takes a decade or two after puberty for males to mature enough to accept that they will not be able to mate with every woman on the planet and as age is not on his side might as well marry just the one. Except Muslims.

You're clearly still attempting to "complete your emotional and social development"

Well I'm still a mile or two ahead of you, anyway.
