I didn't know the age of consent in the UK was 16.

Oh yeeah! We're pretty debauched over here.

Very recent: The sexual offences (amendment ) Bill (2000) There have been moves in the UK to lower the age to 14 since 1972. In Europe, Spain currently has the lowest,@ age 13.

In my state the of consent for hetero sex is 17. For gay sex it's 18.

Of course in the UK the age of consent was 12 until about 1920.

It's about 16 in most countries but ,unsurprisingly (to me)

Saudi Arabia

Any kind of sexual activity outside marriage is illegal in Saudi Arabia, but there is no restriction on the age of marriage.[51] For instance, in 2008 a Saudi court refused to annul a marriage between an 8 year old girl and a 58 year old man.

Religious groups

In April 1972, a conference of the Quakers religious group in the UK, the Society of Friends Social Responsibility Council, passed a resolution in favor of lowering the age of consent in Britain from 16 to 14.[5][6]

Soon later, in July 1972, Dr. John Robinson, Dean of Trinity College, Cambridge, and chair of the UK’s Sexual Law Reform Society, defended an age of consent of 14 in the Beckley Lecture to the Methodist Conference.[5][7]

Both of them have made the case for equality at 14, thus comprising heterosexual and homosexual relations.
