Simmer down. I never said you said anything about children. I was giving a related law that could be invoked in the case of people with Downs syndrome. You said grown adults doing grown adult things in a conversation about AI generated images of people with Downs syndrome. I was saying there are existing laws SIMILAR to what you are talking about but involving children. Many grown adults with Downs are not able to legally give consent and don't have the capacity to understand what is being done in certain situations, which is the same reasoning for laws around sexual images of children.
I mentioned all of that in my reply to you. Why you chose to overlook all that and focus only on one sentence is beyond my understanding.
