I am having a discussion with a new friend about sexual abuse. He and I have views which intersect, but which are not congruent.
Let me pose some questions, none of which are intended to limit the discussion.
- Is sex between an adult and a child (by whatever definition you choose) abuse?
- Is sexual abuse always physical?
- Does harm have to be done (physical, emotional) for it to be sexually abusive?
- If it was by mutual consent at the time but is deeply regretted by one party later, is that sexual abuse?
- If the act was not mutually enjoyable start to finish, is that sexual abuse?
- Does the age of consent define what is and is not sexual abuse?
I can go on with the questions for ages. They are to provide a partial foundation for discussion. The way I have phrased the questions is arbitrary and does not represent a held viewpoint. They are just questions. There are other questions. Ask them and answer them freely.
