Well this is exactly why the age of consent was set then.

Spain only recently raised their age of consent to 16 and that was because research showed the majority of relationships girls under 16 were having with older men were abusive.

Those girls wouldn't chose to go into those relationships if they were sensible or in control of their lives. They aren't sensible or in control of their own lives because they are children. This is basically what the age of consent means. It's not a really complicated idea to understand as some men try to make out.

It's complicated because grownass men who can't pull women their own age want to fuck children.
