@korewatsumi any sexual interaction between an adult and minor is legally considered sexual abuse. It's such actions that the link I gave discussed, and are encapsulated in those statistics.

They may "consent" at the time, but the brain regions involved with executive functioning aren't fully developed, so such interactions can lead to developmental issue and emotional conflicts after quite some time. That's why they can't legally consent.
