18
children or minors below a certain age, the age of sexual consent in that jurisdiction, are deemed not able to give valid consent by law to sexual acts. the age of consent is the age below which a minor is considered to be legally incompetent to consent to sexual acts. consequently, an adult who engages in sexual activity with a minor younger than the age of consent cannot claim that the sexual activity was consensual, and such sexual activity may be considered statutory rape. the person below the minimum age is regarded as the victim and his or her sex partner is regarded as the offender, unless both are underage. the purpose of setting an age of consent is to protect an underage person from sexual advances. age of consent laws vary widely from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, though most jurisdictions set the age of consent in the range 14 to 18. the laws may also vary by the type of sexual act, the gender of the participants or other considerations, such as involving a position of trust; some jurisdictions may also make allowances for minors engaged in sexual acts with each other, rather than a single age.
