If minors can't consent to sex, is there anything they can consent to? Can they consent to being touched, or hugged, or picked up off the ground?

Because you're out here saying "Minors can't consent" as this absolute rule and that has a lot of implications I know that if you want to pick an adult up bodily off the ground you have to have their consent and if you don't it's assault Is it okay to do that to a child

Well I guess it would mean that my high school girlfriend and I raped each other several times when we were 17 and I would rather neither of us go to prison

No, it is a pretty direct answer to your question If minors can't consent to sex with each other then there's a lot of mutual rapists out there who have to go to prison

There's usually legal guidelines put in place for what age gap people think is appropriate, based on the idea that age of consent is a spectrum If it weren't, then a 10-year-old and a 15-year-old couldn't be any "more wrong" than two 15-year-olds

That it would logically mean the two 15-year-olds have to go to jail, and that there's no difference between the two 15-year-olds having "consensual" sex and one of them raping the other It's really not that complicated

The outrage and anger at teaching "enthusiastic consent" to minors seems to assume that minors just won't ever have sex with each other, and that because they "can't consent" talking to them at all about consent is "obscene" and "grooming" and all that stuff
