It's like hanging a big pot leaf flag on the roof of your house; the DEA will come knocking on your door. |

What happens if the child is so advanced that they're in the 99.999th percentile of all human intelligence? Wouldn't that mean that they'd be more conscious than nearly everyone in this planet, making us children in comparison? Wouldn't that mean that a child, in theory, could be the world's biggest pedophile since the child has no peer with which to sexually interact with? |
As someone uniquely qualified to answer this question, yes, you are all children in comparison; always have been, and even more so now.
I do not as a consequence consider myself a pedophile, though. I think pedophilia is best viewed purely in terms of physical sexual maturity. Anything beyond that seems to me to be largely a function of cultural context. |

Pedophilia is a cultural/legal construct. Universal morality, independant of cultural context is impossible imo.
I think it's best viewed as a function of mental maturity. Firstly the ability to comprehend and take responsibility for the act and its consequences (and hence the ability to freely consent in a meaningful way). Secondly whatever intangible factor it is that creates the power imbalance in negotiations between most adults and most children.
Arbitrarily drawing the line at 18 may needlessly restrict the freedoms of the few under 18s that are above the 99th percentile of some measure of intelligence (I would have been among them many years ago). But frankly they can suck , as long as a law protects vastly more people than it restricts then it's justifiable. |

Well if those are the criteria then I think the real question is why we allow most people over 18 to engage in sexual relations...
Personally, I find such exacting standards both impracticable and unnecessary. It's a strange testament to how modern humans are so objectively secure and yet so subjectively insecure that something as ordinary as sex is given special status as a dangerous activity that we need to protect people from engaging in. |
