Well yeah, so it's not absolute, it's relative. It varies over time, culture, etc... There's examples of societies where child marriage was common.


And again, I don't support this, in my country the age of consent is 16.
And I agree with that system, as long as judges obey the spirit of the law (not the letter) and don't convict a 16 year old for having sex with a 15 year old.
