Opebo response.

Consent should be deemed on a case by case basis.

Interesting answer, could you elaborate on it a bit?

Well, I believe age limits on anything are inherently arbitrary. Obviously there should be restrictions, but they should be deemed based on ability to consent and maturity levels, cohesion, state of mind, etc. Plus, the younger someone is, the more proof of consent would be required by a judge.
