I must say, I find this disgusting...
There are currently just three countries whose age of consent is 12 (Mexico, Angola and the Philippines). Even the Vatican, which is notoriously plagued by pedophilia, raised its AOC to 18!
I find it worrying, that a justice of the Supreme Court would even propose such a thing. Any justice, who would come up with something this stupid, should resign, regardless of gender, but I don't know if the law would require her to step down.
Supreme Court judges are appointed for life - so the judge herself has to decide to step down.

I know about the appointment for life, but is there something as a "vote of no-confidence" when everyone thinks, that one particular justice is doing a terrible job?

Thanks for letting me know.
I just do not know how somebody who has recommended the age of consent should be reduced to 12 years old can be in a public position.
