baby 101

so in case you live under a rock, jamie lynn spears (brit brit's baby sister) is preggers...
i'm dying a little inside just thinking/writing about this but whatever...

jls is only 16 years old! and the boyfriend is 19!
smells like stautory rape to me... why isn't this guy instantly arrested?
i went in search of "age of consent" and louisiana (where stupidhead wants to raise the baby so it can be "normal") came up blank... i guess with all that cousin-fucking, "carnal knowledge of a minor" isn't such a big deal...
after more searching, i found that the "age of sexual consent" in louisiana is 17!!! AND the death penalty used to be a possible punishment for raping an adult woman... but now that's banned but it's unclear if it could be applied to child rapists...
the boyfriend in a child rapist! there, i said it... but it's true!

and what are these little hos doing running about town giving away their flowers?? isn't 16 a little young? where are the parents? mind you, keisha castle-hughes (Whale Rider) had a baby when she was only 16 (he boyfriend should have been arrested too - he was 20!) and she turned out alright... but (big but here...) she didn't have brit brit for a sister or lynn for a mother... ("The Spears women must be allergic to contraceptives")

in completely seperate news, lynn spears' book on parenting has been put on hold indefinitely...
apparently, the christian publishing house that was backing it wasn't on board with pre-marital teen pregnancy...

PS - what kind of awesome publicity is this kind of shit for that new movie Juno that's coming out??? i seriously want to see that! that's fictional juno kid is way cooler that jls will ever be and she's dealing with her pregncay like an actual normal person!

PPS - i totally love michael cera and it's good to finally see him getting the acting gigs he deserves!

its not stat rape because as per California penal code 261.5(b)"Any person who engages in an act of unlawful sexual intercourse with a minor who is not more than three years older or three years younger than the perpetrator, is guilty of a misdemeanor."

They are 3 years apart; therefore its not stat. rape.

It is messed up though, thats for sure. I feel sorry for the type of people that look up to celebrities as role models, cause there is slim pickings out there.

rape: the crime of forcing a woman to submit to sexual intercourse against her will

I don't believe that in this case, the problem is with the two individuals involved in this matter. I believe that the laws in the US are wrong. If they want to define sex as dirty, horrible, criminal act, their prerogative.

Jamie Lyn Spears is not a slut, whore, ho or whatever terrible names our patriarchal society has derived to put down women. We don't know her sexual activity, but we know these facts:

1. JLS has been with her boyfriend for over 3 years.

2. Jamie Lyn Spears is 16 years old

3. Jamie Lyn Spears is pregnant.

So, if she is a ho (as you defined her) it for one of the above reasons. Since she isn't promiscuous, because she's been with her bf for a long time, she's either a ho because she's either pregnant, or because she's 16.

HOw old is your sister? And where did you come from? By your own definition, this would make the wee one a ho, or your mom a ho, either of which I doubt are true.

We have to be very careful how we tag these individuals. JLS has done nothing wrong. And if we persecute her for such reasons, we are not only insulting ourselves as women, but of every woman.

Sorry it was long and ranty, I just had to get this out

I guess if they are 3 years and 1 day, it should be stat. rape then.
