[edit] Clean-up

The most immediate thing needed is a proper introduction. Next would be sections and proper style of citations. -TlatoSMD 17:08, 8 May 2006 (CEST)

I'd like to emphasize this article is not complete yet, there's still material I have to implement in the second (1970s) and third (late-1970s-onwards) section, as well as amending a guide to the most common acronyms in this context that sources and literature are bursting with. -TlatoSMD 06:16, 12 May 2006 (CEST)

[edit] NVD

In response to JayW:

Dutch NVD (their site and their platform seem to be wiped completely off the internet by now) intended to simply abolish a legal necessity to sue in order to persecute. The media called that "lowering the AoC down to 12" while sex with 12 year-olds is legal already in the Netherlands since November 6th 1990 as according to section 245, paragraph 2, and section 247, paragraph 2 of the Dutch penal code, persecution of sexual activities with a child aged 12-16 does NOT take place EXCEPT in the case of a civil law suit. Hence, the Dutch cheat a bit by publicly saying their AoC would be 16. Germany has a pretty similar legal situation according to their penal code's section 182 requiring either a civil law suit as well OR "public interest" in order to persecute sexual activities with a minor aged 14-16, while the more strict section 176 deals with anything below the age of 14, and the Germans are more honest than the Dutch by admitting that it makes their legal AoC 14 (sect. 176) instead of 16 (sect. 182). If you say NVD intended to "abolish the legal AoC" it appears as if they aimed for an AoC of 0, and that's clearly wrong, they simply intended to abolish a last resort to legally persecute sexual activities with a person aged 12-16, that is the requirement to sue before any persecution can take place. -TlatoSMD 20:16, 18 Jun 2006 (CEST)
