Kids can't consent because they're not aware of what's at stake and are easily manipulated by adults/people with authority. I know this is hn and the concentration of neckbeards is high but yes: fucking kids isn't ok

Is that a "no" on the data front, then?

  It's a no but you presented a false dichotomy. Either we have data or people are freaking out just because its unpalatable. Of course its a fallacy cause there are other ways to get to the truth without having enough children have sex with adults to have a sizeable, representative data. Get help. Also I'm sure we have plenty data that sex can be traumatic even for grown women in consensual relationship. Sex is very strong experience. And your penis is not some holy grail all people want.

    What's the fallacy called where someone is making an argument and you're implying they're a pedophile?

      Oh i'm kinda sure you are. It's called theory of mind.

        Then I know what I'm sure you are.

        oh please, you are not even denying it

        Would you accept a denial? Seems like you’re just spoiling for a fight.

        They aren't looking for discourse

  Do you need data that says otherwise? Let's try something else. While I look for data, Can you list 5 ways a teenage girl could be harmed by this idea that she willingly agreed to sex with a 20 year old man? What 5 harms could come of that?

    This will teach me to initiate discourse on topics so far outside the Overton window.

  I don't have data proving fucking goats is bad, yet I don't do it, it really isn't rocket science

    Well, I'm glad you're managing to restrain yourself.

I agree. Next question: Can they consent to gender reassignment surgery?

  I'm sure you've heard this before, and I'm sure you don't give a slim shit, but like 3 minors a year undergo gender reassignment surgery. After countless consultations with physicians, therapists, parents, etc. And hormone blockers aren't given out trivially either. But I have no doubt that you know this. So, really, pretty laughably not comparable. And to directly answer your question, the answer is duh, no. I'm sure you're equally upset about young kids being put in beauty pageants or the countless (Republican) states that have recently defended child marriage. Right? Right?
