So let me get this straight: If she had been 18, it would have been perfectly fine, because she'd suddenly "have the experience and maturity to make good decisions" that everyone acquires on their 18th birthday. But since she was 17, she's a child who is incapable of thinking about the consequences...and therefore electroshock to the guy's testicles is the best solution?
(And let's not even go into the fact that the picture was of the 23-year-old guy, not the innocent "child.")
There has to be a line somewhere. Yes, 18 is an arbitrary spot for it to be, but so would any other age of majority.
