Its symptomatic of the large amounts of hypocrisy that exist in our society. You can practically hear them thinking... "Let them have sex . . . . . but lets not allow them any inspiration for their sex lives... lest they enjoy it as much as we do!" It is funny!

I never even realised this.
Well spoted.
But i sometimes do wonder why the age limit for sex is at 16 as i dont believe that at the age of 16 you are mature enough or "in love" to fully understand the concept of it - i know i wasn't.
I don't believe that you are ever fully ready to lose it...!
Over 18 to watch an adult movie what a joke! Good Question...

Typical reasons for restricting films to the 18 certificate category have included scenes of drug-taking, supernatural horror, explicit sex, sadistic violence, and sexual violence -- the last two of which have often led to a certificate not being issued at all, effectively banning the film in the UK.
Until recently, 18 certificate films could not contain the depiction of actual sex acts. With the loosening of British restrictions on the depiction of sexual acts, the R18 certificate was created to allow the sale of these films in sex shops. Although the BBFC allowed the depiction of simulated sex scenes in 18 certificate films, actual sexual acts were still not allowed to be depicted in 18 certificate films until recently.
As with other British film certificates, the 18 certificate theoretically only has advisory power for films shown in public cinemas, with the ultimate say being held by local authorities. In practice, the local authorities tend to follow BBFC rulings in all but a few exceptional cases.
In the past, violence was one of the most problematic aspects when passing a film with an 18 certificate, whether it is sexualized or fantasized violence. Horror films were often the culprits for depicting graphic violence and this often results in a lot of grief to the examiners. Therefore, they must remove the offending scenes before giving it a certificate. With the advent of videotape, this meant that any film that was cut in the cinemas could be release uncut on video.

What's even worse is you can get your own place when your 16 and live as a paying adult ie taxes, bills etc but you you cannot watch an 18 movie even in your home.

Depends on where you live, some states the "age of consent" is 18.
I find it even sadder that you can enlist in the military, smoke & vote at 18 but you can't buy alcohol until 21.

If sex could be stopped by charging admission then sex at 16 wouldn't be allowed either.
What happens when you try to tell a 16 year old "No"? They just find somewhere else to do it anyways.
