This is clearly statutory rape (and acknowledged as such by the narrator). However, after a girl that young has been subjected to the horrors that this girl has (rape, assault, injury), anything that could let her learn to love her body and feel pleasure can be considered an improvement.

* MoodWhiplash: At the heart of "My Vagina Was My Village". Half of the monologue is about the positive way that the speaker experienced her body before being raped, half is about the assault itself and the damage it left her with, and the monologue is formatted as a repeated back-and-forth between the two. Done correctly, it really serves to drive the point home.
