Because it's obviously being used in the thread (and newspaper) title for a reason. It may not be illegal here (yet) but it certainly has more connotations than legality for the minds of most people that read it.

that doesn't have much to do with the legality of it - famous person paying for sex with someone above 18 is still news for tabloids even when perfectly legal

you could say it is related to the morality of it... but really it is just something that makes the story/gossip a bit saucier

What normal person would want to have sex with a 16 year old anyway? especially being in their 50's. I'm 30 and don't look at 16 year old girls and want to **** them, it's odd.

Why is it?

They're fully developed women at 16. I'm 35 and way too old for even a 21 year old in my mind but I don't think it's odd to fancy a 16 year old.

Very common to see men look at each other and grin when a young lady walks past.

Yeah, if those blokes are Stuart Hall and Gary Glitter on a day trip to a school.

No.

I'm surprised no one else has mentioned it but this is a foreigner/immigrant we're talking about here too!

I take it you're joking? If not that's a seriously warped mindset right there.

Presumably he didn't drug, groom or rape them?

A lot of 16 year old's can look mid 20's so that argument is kinda void OldCoals.

Fatty "Noncefinder General" Watson has been rather quiet on this matter.

Must be finishing off the Xmas pudding.

I guarantee both of you wouldn't like it if your 16 year old daughter came home with a 35 + year old man and let it slide. So on that side of the fence you wouldn't think it was odd?

White British male? Atheist most likely

That's not what they're talking about through. I guarantee both of them would feel odd if there daughter was 21, or in her 30's. Because you know, it would be their daughter.

Bit of a strawman matey

Women in their teenage years are biologically in their prime, i would go as far as say you're the weird one for thinking that way

£149 a night apartment, big spender right there.

As for the under age thing, lynch the ****.

I'm weird for not fancying children? OK mate.

Estonia is 14, and prostitution is also legal. There are more than a few girls of that age on the streets in Tallinn.

Fun fact.

Vatican city was the age of 12. But got raised to 18 years old a few years back. But don't think prostitution is legal

Agreed! It's not paedophilia not even close. A 16 year old should have a woman's body & yes I would expect most decent blokes over say 21 to stay away a kid that young even if it's legal but I definitely don't believe anyone who claims they've never seen a mid to late teen who doesn't look alright.
I mean if you fancy an 18 year old you'd have possibly fancied her at 17 and 16 too.

It is kinda weird to make much of an issue out of it when we're talking about a 16 year old imho.

Surly the Daily Mail have missed out the value of everyone involved houses - perhaps this is not a genuine article?
