    I think this discussion needs to get back on track rather than continue any personal mudslinging.
    Seems to me that both Anixx and Deborsky were taking a slightly provocative stereotypical view on these things, based on their respective backgrounds - there is no right or wrong in this matter - to each his own. But I agree with Marcus that what Anixx said does not make him a pedophile. To say that couples have sexual desires in their teens and that this is a good time to have children is more like some extreme branch of natural philosophy or something... And of course, a few hundred or thousand years ago, it was the norm...

    I am going to start a separate thread about womens issues in Russia because it is an interesting question and I don't know much about what the situation is like at the moment.

    You said it very well, Hanna! And put it so mildly! "Белены объелись", - I would say
