See, this is called changing the aspects of the issue at hand, then arguing against something completely different. It's like debating an advocate of gun control, when they inevitably assume that since you want to own a handgun or a semi-automatic rifle, then that also means you should be able to own an M-1 Abrahms tank, or a Pershing ICBM.
By the way, age of consent varies greatly all across the country. And keep in mind, we're talking about
consent here, and last time I checked, animals cannot consent to anything.
For the record, I also think prostitution and plural marriage are fine since they too are actions which do not infringe upon the rights of anyone else.
