Something from personal experience writing stories on here, I don't think there is a rule about it, but just be aware that some people will be put off a story if sexual things happen to someone outside of age of consent.
I've been tripped up here a couple of times as in the UK age of consent is 16, but in some other places it is 18 or 21 and I've had people message me concerned by the content because I haven't specified where it is taking place so are upset that someone who is 16 or 17 is involved.
If you flashback to a traumatic scene in their past (pre-age of consent, e.g. a rape or something similar when they are a chid) just put trigger warnings. Ideally trigger warnings should come anyway with rape scenes.
