    Bernando Álvarez said that there are 13 year olds who are wanting to be abused, and 'if you are careless they will provoke you'

    There is outrage in parts of Spanish society following declarations made over Christmas from the Bishop of Tenerife, Bernardo Álvarez.

    His comments were that there are youngsters who want to be abused, and he compared that abuse to homosexuality, describing them both as prejudicial to society. He said that on occasions the abuse happened because the there are children who consent to it.
    ‘There are 13 year old adolescents who are under age and who are perfectly in agreement with, and what’s more wanting it, and if you are careless they will even provoke you’, he said.

    Finally, a Bishop who isn't afraid to speak his mind! I mean, there you are, in your dress and your funny hat, no chance of a ride because you promised Jesus you wouldn't and some 13 year old Lothario winks at you lasciviously...

    What's a Bishop to do?

    Isn't 13 the legal age there? Or is it 14?

    Dude kind of has a point. We all were kinda itching for the nookie around that age in some form or another. Doesnt mean we werent incredibly naive, unprepared and immature for it.

    That its a bishop making this claim seems to make it newsworthy though.

    Well, I dont think I chatted up any nuns, on my part.

    It's so when they rape an 8-year-old they can use the defence "but Your Honour, you'd swear he looked 12!"

    13 I thought? And in their defence, it's been that way since the Lateran treaty established them as a state-within-a-state of Italy, and I think much of their civil legislation was just copy-pasted from the Italian statute books of the time.

    Nah it's 12, it's 14 in Italy.

    While my recollections of being a hormonal 13 year old are a little hazy, I'm fairly sure it was pop stars and page 3 girls I was lusting after, rather than elderly men in skirts.

    The mind boggles so it do's.
    Then again if the old guy was to see the dance vid 'chica bomb' by
    'Dan Balan' it would drive any one batty.

    This is true.

    Used a defense for a Bishop, its a bit of a stretch to say children were trying to seduce him or any clergy.
