While I agree, I think that current laws wouldn’t protect the 19 y/o since any person over 18 y/o can date any other person over 18 y/o. That means that a 40 y/o can date a 19 y/o without any legal repercussions. Is this not the case?

You’re correct. We have to set a line somewhere unfortunately. I don’t think we could codify a “half your age plus 7”
