>correct, ie as long as the kid consents and no forcing has taken place the sex is fineBut how will a child consent? I can bribe a child to do so by offering her free candy or something, does that mean that she consented? Yes. Does that mean that everything is alright, then? No, because I manipulated her into thinking that nothing bad will happen to her and that she'll like it. A little girl isn't my equal in terms of intelligence and reason as her brain didn't develop fully yet. She can't possibly comprehend what she's consenting to. That's the entire gist behind the age of consent, protecting children from manipulators. Also, about scarring, you never had sex. You don't know what it feels like. You've never been diddled either. So how can you compare anything to what you yourself haven't lived?

My entire point was that, inherently, none of us are truly happy, and we have no ways of being permanently so. On the other hand, if you strip us away of all our surrogates, the state of sadness or unease or whatever you want to call it, will be permanent, as long as a new surrogate doesn't show up.
>they are a result of semi random (there was some selection) breeding of animals which tend to stick together for survivalPrecisely, and those animals have a set behaviour. There are solitary animals and social animals, and when a social animal is all alone then it deviated from the norm. There will always be deviants, but a deviant still is a deviant and does not represent the behaviour of the majority of the species.
