Talk:Youth suffrage

149: 71: 131: 53: 159: 235: 22: 287:? What do you think? I suppose it rather fits in this section, as a youth and children's suffrage in its literal meaning would require the total abolition of any age limits (For further information on the issue, cf. my comment in the discussion-section of the Voting age-article). -- 323:
The "Arguments For" and "Arguments Against" sections are very weak. I removed some of the more ridiculous unsourced claims in the "Arguments For" section. If anyone has any disagreements, feel free to say so. Alternatively, someone could make a more valid list.

In Britain and America The party in power is just on a see saw! going from Conservatives to Labour and from Labour to Conservatives (equivalent of Republicans to Democrats, then Democrats to Republicans) and so on. it probably won't change anything!

Too lazy to check out what has been changed, I'll just add my two cents on what's there at the moment. It's not like there's anywhere else to say this anyways.
353:
Don't get me wrong, I'm a vocal supporter of youth suffrage and I'm okay with these arguments, but I thought that one needed to be rephrased, that's all. --
211: 367:
Oh, also, I'm not sure, but aren't 16 year olds classified differently in different legal systems? The world doesn't end at the state or US border. --
259: 350:, which permits a person to have sex with an adult, is irrelevant, because having sex with an adult is no more dangerous than having sex with a peer. 707: 181: 331: 697: 383: 368: 354: 172: 136: 619: 33: 540: 445: 639: 560: 496:
