I had half written a post about how the laws in Australia are similar to what you outlined for Greece. I certainly agree that they make a lot more sense than no (legal) consent being considered possible for adolescents.
But in the end I dropped it because it struck me that while the legal ramifications of this situation may be considered stupid, the far overriding worry to me is how unhealthy this situation is: for those involved, for their community, and their culture.
The focus should be on the far more difficult problem of changing that. While legislation may be a part of that, I doubt if that alone is the solution. How do we fix this?
