Sorry, no. There are very good, very valid reasons why people are disinclined to pursue relationships with those younger than themselves, to the point where it has been codified into law in certain circumstances. You can't scream "but age is just a number, you're a bigot if you have personal limits", and then turn around and say "oh, but wait, it actually is bad here".

Either there are significant differences in power, maturity, and experience between older and younger people, or there aren't. If there are, they don't magically evaporate at the age of majority, even if we've decided that's the point at which limits can be personal rather than set down in law. If there aren't, then by your own argument, the law is also discriminatory.
