ridiculous. I could maybe see one ore two years around the age of eighteen in some special circumstances... but even 14 to eighteen is way out of whack!
I see your position... but I think the legislators have perhaps allowed too much discretion in this case... I mean ten years makes it OK for biden to sleep with his kids babysitter!
The bill essentially codifies the discretion a judge has on requiring registration as a sex offender. It does not legalize the action itself.
I understand the outrage, and its a wide-berth, but its a bit sensationalized.

I agree.
Misuse of the discretion should cost a judge the election/appointment, and an argument against giving them such a wide range is certainly justified.
I'm just pointing out that this is materially different than 'legalization of pedophilia'

There's definitely a case that this is normalizing pedophilia!
