What's sexually mature? The fact that you've started your period or can get a hard-on? If that's the criteria, I think that the vast majority of THIRTEEN year olds are sexually mature.
What's ready? Ready to deal with pregnancy? Shit, most of the people I know who've had kids weren't ready. I'm not saying kids are equipped to deal with parenthood, just that I don't think a sixteen year old is much more ready, nor an eighteen year old for that matter. Too young is too young and unless you're either in your thirties or REAL mature for your age, most people having kids probably aren't "ready". That's not to say young parents can't do a great job, just that "ready" strikes me as kind of an empty term. Ready to deal with STDs? NO ONE is "ready" for that. Old enough to tie your own damn shoes is old enough to understand the concept of contraception, if it's explained to you properly.
Also, I don't see why having studied psychology makes you qualified to talk about 99% of teens like you've interviewed them all personally.
I'm not getting on your back, it's just that I don't we think we give kids enough credit these days. Young doesn't necessarily equal naive, especially these days. I lost mine at fourteen and not only did it do me no harm, physically or psychologically, but I understood and used contraception. I don't see that those 2-4 years (depending on country / state) make a great deal of difference.
This should get its own thread - how young is too young?........

Who said anything about taping it?....... All sex is potentially porn by that standard.
