I'm watching a UK TV documentary right now talking to under and over age of consent boys and girls about their sex lives.

I'm not advocating that the boys who have had sex with sub 16 year old girls should be prosecuted, nor that the kids under 16 who have had sex with under 16 year olds should be prosecuted.

But how can this all be the subject of a TV documentary that identifies these kids without putting them at risk of prosecution?

Frankly, we think such laws are silly. They do young people more harm than good. How can you possibly ask questions on a gay forum without coming out to your parents if you need consent?
So it is up to you. If you post here we assume that you are of legal age to do so or have consent if not, and we do not want to know any different
