Oh, yeah. I though you were just asking about age of majority.
When you're talking age of consent...
I have absolutely nothing to back this up, but I think porn is the reason age of consent drifted up to 18, which has to do with labor laws and being able to sign legally binding agreements for yourself (signatures from minors are not legally binding).
And since porn was 18, anything below that was taboo and too young, and that idea became the norm.
