If you meant "Sex", say "sex". "Sexuality" does not mean whether or not someone is male or female. You spoke of age of consent laws and said sexuality. I took that word at its meaning because the context fit. You then followed it up with asking about promiscuity. Again, I took the word at its meaning since you were again talking about having sex and sexuality refers to one's sexual orientation and behavior. 

Going forward, the word you're looking for is "sex", but if you want to continue to use the word "sexuality", feel free. Your ignorance has been acknowledged and I will make note of what you truly mean anytime you say it.

As for your question " Why do we advocate a child being able to choose their sexuality (relating to being male or female) but we do not allow them to choose to be involved in a sexual (the act) relations?"

If parents do not want their kid identifying as another gender, they are not obligated to buy them clothes, call them another name, or take them to therapy. However, if they are ok with it, there's nothing making it illegal because it hasn't been deemed to be psychologically and physically harmful to the minor. 

The word was not used incorrectly, just as emotional sex was not used incorrectly in a previous thread. You just have assumed the duties of being word police in this forum and it is petty in nature. I did speak  of age of consent for sex and I clearly made a contrast to it when I said if we can do this,  then why can't we do that. Any reasonable person can read that and determine the the second use of the word sex related to being male or female. 

I could go full Pat and harp on the fact that your last sentence that states a kid identifying as "another" gender is incorrect; however, I clearly understood what you meant and it only addresses parental involvement, It does not address proclamation made by the President of the United States and laws passed by various courts.
