      Uh ? What’s wrong about that ? These are basically generalized romeo&Juliet laws.

      The highlighted age is that from which a young person can lawfully engage in a non-commercial sexual act with an older person, regardless of their age difference. If a participant in a sexual act is under 18 but above the age of consent then sexual acts with another person who is at or over the age of consent may still be illegal if the older participant is in a position of authority over the younger person.

      Despite what the text says, here in France, being over 18 while the other person is not can often be enough to be considered in a position of authority btw
