Because the age of consent laws are not based on anything rational or scientific.

So do you think that more rational and scientific consent laws would mean for higher, or lower ages, on average?

[–] mega350@alien.top 1 points 10 months ago

If you wanted to be scientific you would have to make decisions on a case by case basis and judge the intellect and maturity levels of the parties in the case each time. There is no scenario a specific age is scientific. At least is should be a range.

There has to be an age of consent and the legislature decided that's what it was. That's plenty "rational" As for scientific, it it was scientific it would need to be something like 25 since the human brain isn't fully developed until around then.

You don't need to be at your peak intellectually to decide to have sex. Sex is a very basic thing. You just need to be mature enough to understand what you're doing.

to decide to have sex

You don't need to be at your peak intellectually to decide to have sex, but the decision making parts of your brain are not fully developed until you are 25.
