    Except that they can provide consent. In the U.S. alone: https://www.ageofconsent.net/states

    So, some states allow it, some don’t. But there you have it. In some states (and countries), under 18 people can consent. Now, show me how you’re going to move the goalpost now.

        Ok, friend. In that case, we’re on the same page.

        Teens of a certain age can consent. But I agree that some 40 year old wanting and attempting to have sex with a 17 year old is a fucking depraved predator trying to take advantage of inexperience.
