Age and location is whats important in deciding the legalities
Legalities sure. But what’s weird to me is morally how it changes for some people depending on if he was in one state vs the other. Like if it was in OKC and it was perfectly legal people will go “ehhh it’s a little weird but no big deal.” If he’s a couple states over its “omg he’s a sick pedophile he should lose his career.”
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?
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.
