Hurray! I'm 16 today! ........So?

Because usually at the age of 16 you are officially qualified for hot sweet sex.

I've been 16 for almost a year now. I've got to say that qualified does not equal capable. Oooh no.

Yes. I got more before I was 16 than after. It's sad really.

I don't get the big deal with 16. I get that you finally are able to drive (I am probably the only teenager who doesn't give a fuck about driving) ...

I didn't get my license until I was almost 18. I just didn't give a damn.

Believe it or don't!

I hate my birthday. December 24th. I wish I was kidding. turning sixteen for me is a big deal because i can drive were i want, instead of school and work.

Most common age to start having sex and not get busted for pedophilia.

At 16, you can officially engage in what is known as LEGAL INTERCOURSE.

Aside from that, nothing much really.

How the hell do they enforce that? It really doesn't make any sense. What do they do if they find you? If they put handcuffs around you just start yelling child molester and get off free.

Also, 16 is totally age of consent in Canada... I think =P

I do believe it's fourteen here. Unless they changed it again while I wasn't looking.

You know what I don't get? Why people keep questioning birthdays. Of COURSE they aren't that important! None of them are! But you know what? It's a day that people take to party and have a good time. Why the fuck do so many people ask questions? Just go with the flow, man. If people decide to treat you like you're more important and special than usual, just enjoy it...

 

[Takoto]

Congratulations, in England you can now legally have sex (but you still can't legally look at porn!).

One more year and I'm sixteen.

I don't know why 16 is so special.
My worst birthday was when I got completely hammered and broke my leg in 2 places after jumping off of my roof.

Bad news, man. That... uhh.. actually wasn't your roof.

You operate a bulldozer quite well when you're drunk, y'know.
Anyway, see you in court.

OT: Something about being 16, and being a potential threat to people around you, used to be something special. It gave you a sense of responsibility. But now.. with the way people act these days, bringing weapons to school and whatnot, everyone is a danger to everybody.

Even as I type this, my mother is probably plotting my downfall.

 

[Aedrial]

Hooray! Now I've got a thread to necro in a couple of months on my 16th!

 

[Tartarga]

Maybe its because all the teenagers on those angsty teen drama shows are 16.

 

[Sixties Spidey]

Im turning 16 in November. Too bad it's on the first day of the fucking finals.

I just absolutely hate it when people use the phrase sweet 16. Seriously, shut the fuck up about "Sweet 16". I'm a guy, for God's sakes.

They actually would.

Like I said in an earlier post, if I hadd been caught having sex a year ago, I would've become a registered sex offender and so would she.

What's weird is that on my 16th birthday, I literally felt nothing. I didn't feel all special like I did on my 15th, nor did I feel any different or older or more mature. I actually had people reminding me that it was my birthday that day. Also, it didn't help much that I woke up in the middle of night and barfed my birthday dinner all over the bedroom carpet.

Oh well. Happy birthday, anyway.

 

[ScarlettRage]

These are the age milestones for British people.

16: Sexy time.
18: *glug glug glug*, voting, fully "adult".
21: Nothing, but hey, more drinking, right?
