Yes equality...what is equal in your examples?

The first 2 are not consenting acts so are not about personal freedoms, so the use as an example is complete rubbish.

Rape is the only one that purely involves no consent. :ph34r:

So you think a 7 year old fully understands and is able to make that choice?

A 17 year-old does though.

That goes with the age of consent which varies widely, some countries the age is 16 and at that age I feel that most (but not all) are capable of deciding. At what level do we decide that ALL are capable? Do I consider an 18 year old that has sex with their 17 year old girl/boyfriend a paedophile? no I don't.
As with the drinking age I don't always feel that the age set is correct, but it is set at a level so by that I go. I would like it to be set to the same level for all things. certainly if one is old enough to enlist in the military and die for ones country one should be old enough to drink and consent to sex (not saying they have to do both together)
This is another reason why I said the definition of a sex crime needs to be tightened.
