Both are oppressive, both are ostensibly done to protect the oppressed target (from rape and violence), both undercut the decisions of mature adults (women, parents). Seems like it&#x27;s valid on at least a few dimensions.<p>The major difference is that children grow up to be adults and are freed from the restrictions.  If that is the most salient issue, then it&#x27;s a bad analogy, but I don&#x27;t think it&#x27;s a &quot;ludicrous&quot; comparison.
