This is a lengthy report. I can't begin to summarise it, and, to be fair, I think any attempt to do so will make you prejudge it. So I'm linking to it:

It's an easy read, but requires concentration.

I'd be interested to see similar analyses done in other nations. In the USa I'd be interested in overall and state by state.

Thought for the day this morning was on this subject. It was done by the guy from the Iona community whose name I have temporarily forgotten. Here is a link to the recent thoughts - the latest on there at the moment is yesterday's. Today's will be there soon.

It is now live, was interesting, and yet, somehow, lacking.

Frankly, we think such laws are silly. They do young people more harm than good. How can you possibly ask questions on a gay forum without coming out to your parents if you need consent?
So it is up to you. If you post here we assume that you are of legal age to do so or have consent if not, and we do not want to know any different
