Child sexual abuse is strongly linked to a range of mental illness later on in life.

Someone should take a few minutes to read the reams of research that has been written about this rather than parotting NAMBLA discussion points.

I'll add that "harm" doesn't make a difference - lack of consent is what's at issue.

If someone has sex with a woman in a coma, there's no harm to the woman. There's no need for physical force. It's still sexual assault.

Unconscious people, children, and sex slaves are not able to give meaningful consent.

Stallman doesn't appear to understand the role of consent in these laws.
