"But teenagers are allowed to get abortions without parental consent. "

AFAIK, they can't just walk into a clinic and get an abortion. They need to get a judge to sign off on it. And to do that, they have to convince the judge that the parents are likely to get violent.

"I've got news for you: It's all arbitrary. Marriage, age of consent, equal protection, even sexual preference."

How is sexual preference arbitrary?

"A group of judges can decide one day that age of consent laws are "unconstitutional" and violate "equal protection.""

I guess this is some sort of fantasy for you. It won't happen.
