To try and get a foot hold on the whole children can consent to medical procedures or genital mutilation

Perhaps if we started trying to get the age lowered for other things Want to drink? 10 y.o Want to drive? 10 y.o Want to smoke? 10 y.o

I dont think it should be 10 just to be clear

When the people who are against these things but are for the genital mutilation come in spouting why its not a good idea, we use those arguments against them for the age of consent for hormone therapy etc. As it seems the age of consent starts with the hormone therapy and such but it ends with ped0s getting what they want. Its a slippery slope.

Just an idea, not fully formed but there you go
