Age of Consent
built 629 days ago
In Germany, sexual intercourse is legal from the age of 14 in most cases. An exception is when the older partner is aged over 18 and is "exploiting a coercive situation" or offering compensation, in which case the younger partner must be over 16. In addition, it is illegal for someone aged over 21 to have sex with someone under 16 if they "exploit the victim's lack of capacity for sexual self-determination".

Look at the cover and one might expect another simple haunted house novel, but Age of Consent is far from that. The characters delve into the history of the house, but it’s like an illusion created by Mittelmark; he seems to have other plans. Instead of the power of the house, the novel is about the power of the individual and how they can create far more evil than any novel focusing on a haunted house where plenty of bad things happen.

While nobody considers it Powell's finest moment, Age of Consent ran for months in Sydney in 1969, editor Tony Buckley says. It disappointed overseas... after Peter Sculthorpe's score was replaced and Mirren's nude scenes were cut out of prudishness.

Among Australian adolescents, about half have had (hetero) sexual intercourse by the age of 16. The majority of these do not consistently use condoms to prevent sexually transmitted infections and notifications for Chlamydia have steadily increased over the past few years. About a quarter of secondary school students surveyed in the last national sex survey said that their last sexual encounter took place while intoxicated and was unsafe or unwanted as a result. (AIHW 2003).
