Hes talking about the age you consider someone a child.
Obviously 16 year olds are not children and most countries recognize that when it comes to sex.
For example in my country, the age of consent is 16 except when the other person has authority over the other. Thats things like boss/employee, teacher/student, coach/athlete. In this case the age of consent is 18.
Man I had the most awesome time with a 35yo woman when I was 16. Had great sex, learnt one hell of a lot, kept at it for a couple of fantastic months then broke it off when I met someone else. No one got hurt, it was affectionate, fun and horny as hell and it remains one of the great experiences of my life. This was in the 80s. I'm glad I grew up then. The world is a stupid, over-protective, sorry-ass pussy whipped place these days.
No, I was 16 like the guy in the story, which was why I said it. I had a job, my drivers license, and was loving life. Perfectly capable of thinking for myself, and taking responsibility for my actions. 16 was also legal in my country, and still is.
Cognitively they definitely are. There are benchmarks in brain development and being able to withstand manipulation from a fully developed adult brain is not developed at 16. Which is why you arent considered an adult until 18.

Women who fucked you probably had predatory personality and preyed on even younger adolescents
Yeah, but nah. It's almost like you don't know her, or me, at all and are just making stuff up... She was between husbands at the time, had a fling with me and was married again in a couple of years. My hometown is small and I go back there often. You can't get away with anything without anyone knowing (everyone knew about us), and it was an exciting one off with me, she dated men her own age the rest of the time. Anything else you'd like to make up, about people you don't know?
Brain development, and physical development outside of that are two separate things, strangely enough. They don't always grow in tandem with one another.
"Adolescence" in general terms is defined as starting from the onset of puberty until early adulthood (~19-21 years of age).
But the "adolescent" phase of brain development occurs from the onset of puberty until about age 25. Thus - so say the text books, although this is kind of difficult to believe - a 24 year old possesses the same reasoning ability as a 13 year old. The simple physiological reason for this is that the frontal lobe, where the reasoning center is located, has not fully developed until ~age 25.
It makes sense in purely physiological terms, but reason would state that life experience would temper the judgement of a 24 year old, compared to a 13 year old. But you never know...
It's not like when they become 25 their reasoming ability suddenly becomes much more developed
Yes it does. Just like one year you can't conceive children, and the next year you can.
It makes sense in purely physiological terms, but reason would state that life experience would temper the judgement of a 24 year old, compared to a 13 year old.
I guess you missed when I wrote that part. If you're not wired up yet, you're not wired up yet. It's like expecting high-speed internet, when you're not connected. The frontal lobe has not finished maturing at age 24. Can your adolescent brain comprehend that? Looks like that's a "no".
Owning a fully auto m60 is illegal in most US states.
The point I'm trying to make is about ethics rather than laws. If you're a good citizen that doesn't care about right and wrong and just listens to the government for guidance then good for you.
