Does anybody here seriously think that the SC would allow sex with children,(?)

Yes. I think it would. And I'll tell you how. Look for cases of men having sex with minors between 14 and 18 where there is explicit consent. Statutory rape charges are filed. The man sues on the basis of the age of consent law being arbitrary and unfair. It goes all the way to the supreme court. I would look for lots of "age of consent" lawsuits in the near future.

I would look for lots of "age of consent" lawsuits in the near future.

If that happened, and children were judged mature enough to handle a sexual relationship, then look for all of the age-related laws to be tossed. I don't think the government/judicial branch is in a hurry to throw those away.
