Good article, laissez-faire. I'm someone myself who gets really annoyed when anyone tries to expand the definition of pedophilia to something that it is not. I get even more annoyed at people who claim that adolescent marriage before the age of 18 is somehow a form of legalized pedophilia, because it isn't. I'd be interested in knowing what your take is on that. By the way, I gave your article a thumbs-up. :-)

The article is actually older than 7 days. That means that upvoting it has no impact on the rewards and you just wasted your Voting Power. Thank you for that anyway, although it would be more reasonable to resteem the article. :D
I would just say that I do not think the government should maintain the institute of marriage. If some people want to sign a contract and have a special ceremony concerning their relationship, let them do it. Of course, if there was only free market, these contracts could be perceived as invalid if one of the persons was too young to fully understand actual meaning of the contract.
samotonakatoshi? I was just a little curious about something. You said in your reply that 7 days after an article is published, an upvote has no impact on the rewards for it. Does that same rule apply to downvotes? In other words, if someone were to downvote something of mine that was more than 7 days old, would that downvote not be counted against me? Let me know.:-)
Posts (articles and also comments) are always evaluated 7 days after they were published. And then upvoting or downvoting has no impact.
You publish, then people vote and then (after exactly 7 days) it is evaluated and you get the author reward.
You can see down there the "Virtual ops" part. There are those transactions that are not signed, but are computed by the witness who produced the block (and checked by other witnesses). You can see at that page that there is one post evaluated - author and curators get their rewards.Here is an example. https://steemd.com/b/37225196
After this evaluation, no subsequent voting, or downvoting, will impact the rewards, no other evaluation will happen for the article (at least with the current settings). (But the mana of the voters is deduced).
I hope that this answers your question. Have a nice day.
EDIT: Downvoting after the 7 day period will not even hide the post (from what I have tried).
Thank you for the info. :-)
