Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg FAVORS pedophilia

Since the age of consent in the United States which varies from state to state is from 16 to 18, lowering the age of consent to 12 would legalize pedophilia of children age 12 and above.
That is exactly what Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, a Clinton appointee and daughter of Russian Jewish immigrants, recommends in a co-authored book that led to sweeping changes made by the federal government in the name of sex equality.
In 1977 when Ginsburg was General Counsel of the ACLU, she co-authored (with Brenda Feigen-Fasteau) Sex Bias in the U.S. Code: A Report of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights, which was published by the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights in April 1977, for which Ginsburg and Feigen-Fasteau were paid with federal funds under Contract No. CR3AK010.
Ginsburg wrote on p. 102 of Sex Bias in the U.S. Code:
Eliminate the phrase 'carnal knowledge of any female, not his wife, who has not attained the age of 16 years' and substitute a federal, sex-neutral definition of the offense …. A person is guilty of an offense if he engages in a sexual act with another person,…[and] the other person is, in fact, less than 12 years old.
Ginsburg (and her co-author) also recommends that the Mann Act be repealed. The Mann Act is a federal law passed in 1910 which makes it a felony to engage in interstate or foreign commerce transport of "any woman or girl for the purpose of prostitution or debauchery, or for any other immoral purpose".
From Sex Bias in the U.S. Code, pp. 98-99:
The Mann Act … poses the invasion of privacy issue in an acute form. The Mann Act also is offensive because of the image of women it perpetuates …. It was meant to protect from 'the villainous interstate and international traffic in women and girls,''those women and girls who, if given a fair chance, would, in all human probability, have been good wives and mothers and useful citizens….'
In other words, if Ruth Bader Ginsburg has her way, sexual abuse of children 12-years or older would not be a crime, nor would child sex trafficking.
