That's a strange and disgusting ruling, not sure how an adult having sex with a 10yo isn't rape. No idea where the "wokeism" connection is though? Kinda seems like you're just trying to be edge again and bait.
edit: Just saw this is from 2019 and it's misleading fakenews nonsense as usual from you types: Fact Check-Sexually abusing children is illegal in Finland, contrary to claims made online
This is not true. But despite the false headline, the article does refer to a real 2018 court ruling, which caused controversy at the time and led to Finland updating its laws on child rape, so that prosecutors could seek a tougher penalty without having to prove that an attack involved violence.
Finland’s Supreme Court ruled that a man who was found to have had sexual intercourse with a 10-year-old child was rightfully charged with aggravated sexual abuse of a child, which carries a sentence of 1-10 years imprisonment, rather than aggravated rape, which carries a sentence of 2-10 years.
So the man was still charged with sexual abuse of a child. So yeah, another Klaw nonsense bait thread.

I looked it up too. That's the thing about words: they can mean different things in different places. Here's the Finnish criminal code if anyone wants to read. https://www.finlex.fi/en/laki/kaannokset/1889/en18890039_20150766.pdf
Finland still punishes the same act, and for the same reasons. They call it aggravated sexual abuse. We call it rape. Even if it was called spaghetti, the act is still outlawed. That's the important part.
I see no problem here, unless someone disagrees with the sentence it carries.
