  They had some kind of relationship while he was at school. It’s not clear whether it was sexual.

  Age of consent in France is 15. So he was already an adult in this context.

    That is wildly too young imo, but I’m no expert.

      I only know this from a Quebecois perspective, I believe 16 is the age of consent in Quebec, but I doubt any of my cousins were still virgins by the time they were 14. I’m not sure on the logistics of this, but they were very promiscuous even at that age.

      So absolutely none of this is shocking to me. This is just the way French people are.

    🤔 I think that’s considered grooming, in some cultures

      I’m sure it is, but what “some cultures” think isn’t really relevant, is it.

    Legality isn’t morality. Generally „half your age plus seven“ is a good lower limit before it gets weird.

      That’s kinda my point.

      Relationship was certainly “weird”, but not “rape”.
