Because you were brought up in a culture which says it is wrong. Many people in other cultures/times could say exactly the same about homosexuality... they "just know it's unnatural". Equally, in some cultures/times it wasn't considered dodgy to use a child for sex in the way we now view it.Originally posted by Old Greg View PostI have no religious framework, so how come I find the idea of adults marrying six year olds morally unacceptable?Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

No. I apply some logic about capacity to consent which makes me see sex with children as immoral - I don't just 'know it's unnatural'.Originally posted by d000hg View PostBecause you were brought up in a culture which says it is wrong.

I'm sick and tired of hearing people whinge about their 'rights'
What about their responsibilities ? When are we going to hear about the gays who knuckle down and pull their weight by performing gay responsibilities ?(\__/)

Your gut emotional responses to something are not based on what you've previously worked out by logic.Originally posted by Old Greg View PostNo. I apply some logic about capacity to consent which makes me see sex with children as immoral - I don't just 'know it's unnatural'.
For instance you've grown up in a society which teaches you consent is very important, you cannot help but be shaped by that value from those around you as you grew up... so your so-called logical analysis simply agrees with ingrained sense of right and wrong.
You are nowhere near as objective as you think you are. In a culture where consent was not seen as important, you would not logically come to the same conclusion, you'd 'logically' come to some other conclusion that happens to agree with what you were taught to think.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment
