@brazen_unicorn @IckyVickyEww @GibranStormcrow @MatthewSpeak @Not_Meis @zachsilberberg when considering at what age to set a legal limit for things, we should consider the danger involved.

Joining the army is WAY bigger and more dangerous than drinking beer. So the beer age should be lower than the enlistment age.

@brazen_unicorn @IckyVickyEww @GibranStormcrow @MatthewSpeak @Not_Meis @zachsilberberg and basically, yes. I think that 16 year olds should be allowed to drink alcohol, smoke cigarettes and weed, and vote.

The fact that so many otherwise very sensible nations have set those ages at 18 however, makes me willing to consider arguments that 18 is better than 16.

@brazen_unicorn @IckyVickyEww @GibranStormcrow @MatthewSpeak @Not_Meis @zachsilberberg Remember that alcohol and tobacco have been proven to be dangerous. 16 year olds having sex has historically been very normal and never considered dangerous. Until some sort of danger is shown it's kind of ridiculous to claim it should be forbidden by law.
