Perhaps I should have been clearer that I mean younger adolescents, but I thought that was implied by the context of the post. No one, as far as I can see, has said anything about older teens, or sex between someone who's just under the age of consent and someone who's just over it.

And there's a huge difference, IMHO, between a fifteen-year-old having sex with, say, an eighteen-year-old, and having sex with someone who's in their thirties.

In the context of this discussion, we're not talking about older adolescents - Lucas found that uninteresting. We're talking about a twelve-year-old. We're not talking about teenagers on the verge of adulthood - we're talking about a character barely out of childhood. There's a big difference.
