A minor can never agree or give consent. Legally they are not considered mature enough to do so. Their parents or someone else can not give their permission either.

How many sexualitys are there and what are they?

The general ones are: Heterosexual: Attracted to members of the opposite sex. Homosexual: Men who are attracted to other men or people who are attracted to the same sex. Lesbians: Woman who are attracted to other woman. Bi-sexual: Someone who is attracted to both sex's Bi-curious: Someone who is 'straight', but with a curiosity about sex/relationships with someone of their own gender. Tri-sexual:one who likes men or female and animals. But this is not a true sexuality because a human can not have a consenting relationship with an animal other than a human as they cannot give their consent. They do not speak our language or understand anything about human sexuality. As a result to have seual relations with an animal is to have sexual relations with somebody that cannot give their consent. Therefore it is a form of perverse behavious such as pedeophilia. Sexual relations with animals are illegal in most parts of the civilised world, because to have have sexual relations without the other partners consent is rape or sexual abuse. So therefore Tri-sexuality is not a true sexuality, it is an illness. Zoophile is the proper term for somebody who has sex with animals. Not much different from a pedeophile. Pansexual: Someone who believes gender isn't important, and just likes who they like. Asexual: Someone who does not experience sexual attraction. Objectum-sexual: someone who feels emotional and/or sexual attraction to physical objects of all sorts. glam-sexual: someone who is attracted only to people (male or female) that have a high level of glamour.
