Dershowitz might have had sex with a non-consenting child slave, which I don't support at all

But I also think the modern notion of age of consent is very unusual in historical terms

The point of coming of age ceremonies like quinciniera and bat mitzvah is that the person is a (young) adult

It is very strange to think a young woman is reproductively adult physically for years before she is considered sexually adult

I'm not so sure if I would go so far as to say "If there's grass on the field, play ball" or "Old enough to bleed is old enough to breed" but I also think those are meaningful indicators of adulthood and (physical) sexual maturity is not far off

What a creepy smug douchebag.
