At its root, it's because unbalanced relationships are unhealthy for one or both people, and at some point we draw a line and say it's too unhealthy to be allowable. Teens should (and do, in most places) have the right to choose to sleep with

but if it is a given that one partner has significant power over the other, that's likely to be a relationship society frowns on.
