I think I finally found proof that some of the chinese gymnasts are underage

Chinese follow the Lunar Calendar. I just cleared this with the Taiwanese people I work with. So they are actually younger on our calendar.

So a 14 year old girl can be as much as 15 on the Chinese Calendar. Then the rule that you have to be at least 16 in the year of the Olympics means that it is possible that 14 year old girls are competing.

So 14 year old chinese girls can get married in Louisana legally? //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/laugh.gif.48439b2acf2cfca21620f01e7f77d1e4.gif
