"Sex Offenders are offenders who have been sentenced for committing a sexual offense, have a past conviction for an offense involving sexually deviant behavior, have displayed sexually deviant behavior in the commission of any offense, or have admitted committing sexually deviant behavior. Sex offenders require a higher degree of supervision than other offenders do."
So by that, what you said would be reversed. people are sometimes deemed sex offenders because they participate in an illegal sexual act, or sex with a minor. if there werent ages of consent, there'd be no reason to lable them as sex offenders. The thing is, a lot of these men who trick these children into doing these sexual acts is because the children dont know any better. this isn't to say that is because they're just natrually stupid, it's because they havn't been properly informed about sex. if our society was more open about sex and the education thereof, children would understand what it is, how it works, and know how to say no, or even yes.
