In India, a country that has returned to the spotlight for the terrible episode of the gang rape of a girl from New Delhi, for example, the government has recently raised the age of consent from 16 to 18, and this has created quite a bit of controversy. regarding the alleged effectiveness that this measure would have in combating sexual violence.

The opposite is practically the case in South Africa where on January 15 the Pretoria High Court - where the age of consent was 16 - gave the green light to sex between minors between the ages of 12 and 16. The threshold is 13 in Japan, 14 in China, Italy and Hungary, 15 in Argentina and France, 16 in Great Britain and the Bahamas.

And there are countries where the age is different in the case of a woman or a man - in Peru and Colombia, for example, 12 years for women and 14 for men - and also in the case of in front of heterosexual or homosexual couples - in Burkina Faso the age of awareness is reached at 13 for heterosexual relationships and at 21 for homosexual ones. Last but not least, in Canada the "legal age" for the first time is 16 years, but it rises to 18 for anal intercourse. In short, the ideas are many, confused and sometimes contradictory, and, as often happens, everyone has their say!
