-Emma was either 16 or 17 depending on which birthday you believe for Henry.

-When they were together, Emma and Neal were in Oregon, where the age of consent is 18.

-Neal was biologically 22/23, because of the age on the wanted poster. However he was much older due to his time spent on Neverland. Im pretty sure Neal's age when he dated and had sex with Emma has never been stated. What wanted poster are you reffering to? Can you show me it?

Im also pretty sure Emma's age at the time she dated and had sex with Neal has never been stated. http://anti--swanfire.tumblr.com/post/102230256986/a-few-anons-asked-me-if-i-could-post-a-picture-of

The second picture shows the wanted poster, which lists Neal's DoB as March 1977.

Now before everyone goes "AHHAHHHH BUT THE POSTER WAS FALSE" the most likely scenario is that when Bae landed in the LWM he was picked up by social services and given a date of birth close to his own ie. if he was 15, he would have landed in the LWM in 1992, and so been given 1977 as the birth year. WHich is the most liekly scenario. In any case, the poster was put there and never contradicted to show us how old he was.

They didn't need to state Emma's age. Henry was 10 years and 2 months (or 6 months depending on which birthday you believe) on her 28th birthday, I am pretty sure the writers thought you could work it out from there. And you seriously expect us to give any credit to your opinion when you're literally proving what I said?

Come on! Your tumblr source is LITERALLY "anti--swanfire"!

You're just trying to create a fake problem out of nothing just to create conflict and to demonize Neal because, let's say it clearly, you're just hating on him. Your only point is to bash Neal for whatever reasons.

Just like you're saying domestic abuse is an ok thing because you hate Rumple. Just like you ignore 7 years of character development because you hate Regina.

Hating for the sake of hating has zero value in a discussion. Nothing. Zero. There is no point to even try to discuss that with you. There is nothing constructive here. I say again in case you missed it the first time, this is a discussion I moved from an originally anti Killian thread.

You asked for proof from the show of Neal and Emma's ages; I provided it. Not sure how that means I "proved what you said".

It wasn’t necessarily an anti-Killian thread. It was a discussion on whether he had committed rape when he was a pirate, based on evidence revealed to the audience through dialogue.
