      Yes but that’s not how the media refers to it. You’ll notice that the media often refers to “underage women” when referring to teenagers. But you can’t do that when the girls are still in primary school.

        well i mean, underage would be a general term referring to people under the age of 18, so that makes sense. Unless they’re children i would kind of expect that to be the case. Nobody refers to children as “under aged individuals” we refer to them as children lol, and teens aren’t generally considered to be children.
