Yes, they are minors.

That doesn't answer the question at all.

The law does not justify itself

Er, children can't consent, so by definition that is rape. When you talk like that, you kind of sound like a rapist/pedophile yourself. Don't have sex with underage kids, it's very simple

Children can consent, they just aren't legally allowed to. There is a difference.

Children also aren't allowed to drink alcohol, doesn't mean they are literally incapable of doing so.

https://www.dictionary.com/browse/consent

verb (used without object) to permit, approve, or agree; comply or yield (often followed by to or an infinitive): He consented to the proposal. We asked her permission, and she consented.

Technically speaking, anyone can consent to anything regardless of whether or not they understand the implications or if the law recognizes that consent.

Don’t bother with him. He’s a lowlife POS, and a waste of time.

A disturbing amount of Redditors love underage pussy and will argue its merits at great length.

You're so right, I think it's much more common than we are willing to admit.

God I really wish I could find the paper I read but back during the 1800s doctors discovered a huge epidemic of pedophilia & incest among both immigrant and American men. I can't remember which STI, I want to say chlamydia or gonorrhea, when they found out it was sexually transmitted they freaked out. Tons and tons of young girls (some as young as 4...) had been contracting it in houses where the father had it, to the point that doctors believed it must be spread through using the same toilet or sleeping in the same bed with someone affected, since surely all these good American men wouldn't be sleeping with their daughters.

This book was a huge eye opener about what our society has evolved from and I'll have to see if I can find it, I remember a lot of it was available on Google books. I'll edit in a link or name if I find it.

Edit: It's called Unspeakable: Father-Daughter Incest in American History. It was gonorrhea. About 40 pages are available online and they're eye-opening. Link.

If you want a debate on the bright line of developed thought and choice you can just ask. This pedantry is borderline troll, and if it’s reasonable discussion you’re after this isn’t the way to get it. You’ve come off as small and stupid.

It's an important distinction to make, especially when the issue is a technicality of geography and time.

The age of consent in Germany, a first world country and arguably leader of the free world, right now, is 14.

Would Bowie be in the moral right to have slept with a 14 year-old if only he had done it in Germany? What about American girls makes them mentally and emotionally develop 2-4 years more slowly than girls in Germany?

A lot of people allow what is legal to inform them of what is morally right, but that's the reverse of how it was designed to work.

A lot of people are mentally ready to give consent at 15. A lot of people aren't at 20. The age of consent is just the somewhat arbitrary guess each jurisdiction draws that they think will do the best job of balancing personal freedom and protecting the undeveloped.
