Maybe for a femenyst in a bogus rape trial it is, but for the rest of us, "Yes" and "No" are pretty clear.
Who can consent ?
All those of majority age who are of sound mind have legal capacity to consent and enter into legal contracts.
At what age ?
While the prevailing age is 18, that decision of at what age people become competent to assert their own rights and best interests is best left to localities.
Who can judge acts done in privacy ?
Judges. If someone is raped in their bedroom, it's a judge who does the judging of the rapist.
Wrong. But now you want to change the age of consent because of this new privacy right.
Your addmission that its a problem is proof of what we we are talking years.
Hmm, I thought it was a jury of one's peers. Silly me.
The judge is supposed to see that the lawyers behave themselves and don't mislead the jury. Either set of lawyers.
This is something as serious as a rape trial. For traffic offenses and spitting on the sidewalk, a judge may try the case. (Although it's technically a violation of the 6th amendment if it's a crimial case)
