NEW TOPIC: Underaged Sex

It is illegal for a man to have sexual relations with a girl (under the age of 16 years old). If he is caught, he can be charged in court even if the girl agreed to having sexual relations with him. This law protects girls against sexual offenders (especially young girls who may be sexually assaulted/ raped). Do you think this law is fair to males?

Also, do you think there should be laws that prohibit sex below a certain age (e.g. below 16 years old?)
