It was pointed out to me by a legally-minded friend of mine that legal limits are, in legal use, pretty much based on a common sense approach (unlike the prosecution of student protestors...), so the sense of finality about legal limits I gave in my previous post was incorrect.
So, if you, for some mad reason, wish to re-read the previous post, do so in mind of this. I think that its best to think of it as a response to the kind of tory thinking which leads people to suggest that 14 year olds should be prosecuted for having sex with each other rather than a comment on legal realities.
