the idea that 18 as an age of consent seems rather arbitrary, and as such, would be more reasonable on a case-by-case basis with an idea of innocent until proven guilty, but would that be more manageable? i do not agree with abusing children, but when a woman is of child bearing age, and wants to actively participate in intercourse, she's going to whether the partner is a responsible adult or some child who isn't going to use a condom because it's "icky"
