Laws exist, and for a very good reason, the protection of the individual, their family home and possesions. What I do fear, is how a law may be interpreted, given there are no hard and fast guidlines drawn. What is extreme to one, maybe small potatoes to another and vice versa. What a person may do to another, is all down to interpretation of the law as to them being unlawful or not, i.e. depends on the viewer. That being the case, prosecutions and non prosecutions will run a wavy line, which is of no use to anyone. Consent in law, well, in law one has to be of a sound mind to give consent, how many do we hear of who are assessed by psychology prior to standing trial, anyone can be understood to have any number of issues which would cause erroneous consent, again, down to the interpreter.
