From the wikipedia article:

   "Michel Foucault argued that it is intolerable 
    to assume that a child is incapable of giving 
    meaningful consent to sexual relations."

The action of the french intellectuals or the German Greens was very clearly not just about equating the age of consent between homosexuals and heterosexual, but also about enabling sex between adults and prepubescent children.
