At least with the lower age of consent, it gives a person in such a relationship the option to be open and seek advice on sexual health matters without fear of sending their partner to jail, or being sent to jail. All this will do is make people hide their relationships and not seek help or advice when it is needed.

What kind of statement is that? It's wrong plain and simple. There is absolutly no reason for a 40 year old person to be having sexual relations with, IMO, anyone under 18 and most certanly not 14.
If you think that these people are going to seek advise on sexual health matters, you are living in a dream world.
It is just unbelievable how anyone can make an arguement like you are making.
