A concerned Dominican has initiated a petition drive on the matter of raising the age of consent in Dominica.
At present, the age of consent is 16 years but Delia Cuffy-Weekes wants it raised to 18 and is seeking the signatures of 50,000 petitioners to help her do so.
This, after an explicit video of two underage girls surfaced on a social media site and has been posted to several international pornographic sites, where it remains.
DNO would like to get the opinions of readers in a new poll.
The poll will be active for one week.
Should the age of consent in Dominica be raised?
- Yes (54%, 825 Votes)
- It won't make a difference (30%, 452 Votes)
- No (16%, 238 Votes)
Total Voters: 1,515
