Ok so I've been reading a bunch of Sexual Consent laws, and they all sound insanely complicated. So for the sake of my tired mind, can someone please dumb it down for me and answer this: if the age of consent is 16 but you are a minor until you are 18, then what art the legal repercussions of having a relationship with an older partner while you are 16/17?

They exist but are slighlty better
------- So why did I do it? I could offer a million answers, all false. The truth is that I'm a bad person, but that's going to change. I'm going to change.

If age of consent is 17, then until you're 18 you can only legally date/fuck someone who is 20 years or younger. If it's 16, then likely it's 19 years or younger. Once you're 18 no one gives a fuck who you fuck.

Well age of consent varies by state and country. Most states age of consent is 16. But thanks, that's the answer I needed. But do you know any more about how serious the charges are if they're older than just 2 years? 
It's 3 years. Once you're at age of consent, you can't date/fuck anyone three years younger or three years older than yourself. So for 16 it'd be between 13 and 19 years old. If they're over three years, and someone finds out and feels the need to press charges, it is entirely likely the older person will be arrested with either statuatory rape, even with consent, or charged with some form of child endagerment/molestation, etc. Basically become a sex offender. Even if it's not creepy, if it doesnt' follow the rules that person can easily end up as a sex offender, even if you're 17 and they're 21. That's over 3 years difference.

Ok, I thought so but I wanted to be sure. I tried looking it up but it's worded for lawyers and my brain's too tired to process all of that. Thanks for all your help.

I'm guessing you're the older guy, and you had sex with an underage girl.

Alright, i read some of what was here but the problem is, you never said what state you need the info for. Every state is different with their laws so even if somebody gives you a general idea, it might be different in your state...
------- 98% of teens have tried smoking pot and drinking. If you're one of the 2% who hasn't, copy this and put it in your signature. Apparently this ^ annoys people...so I thought I would put it there ;-)

There aren't any, as long as you don't get caught. If you do, and you're 16, he goes to jail. If you're 17, you're clear.
