Talk:Derek Hale/@comment-24.39.1.242-20120618122104

In reading through the comments, I've noticed a lot of people pushing for a Derek/Lydia pairing. I'm just going to point out that, given all the information on this Wiki alone, Derek is 24. Lydia is 16. For those bad at math, that's an 8 year difference. In a LOT of states, that kind of age difference is illegal and usually carries a punishment of prison time. I highly doubt the writers are going to promote such a relationship. I understand MTV likes to tout itself as ground-breaking when it comes to their scripted and reality series, but I'm fairly certain they wouldn't be so blatant as to say a relationship between a guy and an underage girl is okay.
