Do you really think there is a difference in being raped before or after turning 18?
study just a little bit of history! there was no legal age for marriage and usually the woman got to have sex/marriage after their first menstruation/flowering. As for men to men love...11-12 or as soon they started to develop an look more manly they could be tutored by their masters or patrons in exchange for whateveer knowledge necessary in that time.
Did men really wear their hair that long in ancient China? I hope Rong waited until the real prince was 18 befoe having sex with him.
