There is nothing concrete about sexuality for anyone. Deciding ages of consent is completly arbitrary. If a 15 year old, and a 23 year old are in a relationship, as long as no parents disagree, then society and the state have no right to intervene.

You cannot argue that children of any age are not curious about their bodies, or others. You cannot argue that children will not develop their own sexuality, independently. You cannot argue that they will not have sex. Neither can you argue that they should not.

You cannot make decisons for people, as long as they have some degree of freedom.

You can only give children, teenagers, and adults the tools to make smart decisions about sex and relationships. You can only attempt to protect children, teenagers, and adults from rape, and manipulation.
