Ahh right.
Perhaps he didn’t consider the kinds of mind games people can play on kids (which even other kids can), which you don’t need to worry about if you are just a random guy, but do need to, if you are controlling a community/country.
my theory is that he simply assumes nothing bad will happen from any situation until someone tells him otherwise. i will give him this though, he instantly changes his opinion when presented with new data.
Honestly, I too had similar thoughts ~ a decade ago.
But then I looked back at my childhood, realised how much of a fool I was and how many times I was manipulated and understood how that could have worked in this context.
What kind of statements were his?
That if someone freely gives consent but is underage, it’s not immoral.
