(04-17-2023, 01:16 PM)The Real Marty Wrote: Okay, once again, I am actually reading the article in the link, and what it says is that "certain internationally recognized legal experts" said "Sexual conduct involving persons below the domestically prescribed minimum age of consent to sex may be consensual in fact, if not in law."

And that statement is a fact. 16, 15, and 14 year olds are having consensual sex all over the world. If you have teenage children, they're probably doing it, too.

Fire away.

The issue is not with that sentence, but in the one right after it.

"In this context, the enforcement of criminal law should reflect the rights and capacity of persons under 18 years of age to make decisions about engaging in consensual sexual conduct and their right to be heard in matters concerning them."

I read it as; if the sex is agreed to by the minor, regardless of the age of the partner, then enforcement of criminal law would be potentially unnecessary. No victim, no crime.
