past several months involves the number of songs that endorse what can --
at best -- be called young love (at worst it is called statutory rape). We
can go for weeks without mentioning it, but then somebody will rush in
having just heard another song on the radio and quote the lyrics.

"She was just 17 if you know what I mean..."

"Little sister won't you do what your big sister won't..."

"16 will get you 20, that's alright..."

"I'm not a girl, not yet a woman..."

The entire song "My Sharona"

There are laws against it, as the former spokesman for Subway can attest,
but as a recent article I read about a 14-year-old model for Christian Dior
flatly states, it is still accepted and endorsed by all forms of media.
