The point isn't the consent, it's the tattling.
Yep, it is intended to attempt to shame people for not having the exact morals of this piece of shit.
its to discourage SA from being reported.
No it's too keep parental sexual abuse from being reported as much. If Dad and daughter have the same strain of sti that's a mandatory report, if they need permission they'll never seek reported help and you can't draw a line from a to b as easily.
parental, or friend, family member SA/rape
