Check age of consent in Japan please...
Not 13 any more. It’s officially 16 now, and that old age of 13 never applied to anyone because every prefecture had a prefectural age of consent set at 16, and the old, national age of consent WAS 13 so no prefecture could go below that. There was NO WHERE in Japan where it was actually legal to have sex with a 13 year old because no prefecture allowed it.
Get a new talking point.
And most of the world think that it’s too young.
Just because something is allowed by law in one country doesn’t invalidate arguments about it being immoral.
Having sex with animals is “allowed” (by not being illegal) in many countries. I would still argue that it is immoral.
There aren’t even correct anymore. Japan changed their national age of consent to 16, and it was functionally never as low as 13 because each prefecture had it set at 16 before that. The old, national age of consent was so no prefecture could ever go below that age.
16 country-wise and 18 in the prefecture I live in.
