...those of true love? But I suspect that my grandparents waited until their wedding night to consummate their relationship, the first marriage for both of them. Although I do not condone the adultery and premarital sex of the Letourneau-Fualaau pair, I disagree with the sensationalist labels of "rapist" and "child molester" that have been applied to Letourneau.
