I believe that the average 100-year-old can be trusted more than the
average 14-year-old not to make mistakes of sexual consent that can
screw up the rest of his or her respective life. The 14-year-old is
probably better at video games, though.

Just the usual rules about sexual consent among non-minors and about
involuntary institutionalization.
