Is it true when your 16 you can have s*x with people 16-17 only? Legally?

Question

Is this true I heard it was?

Answer 1

I'm 99.9% sure that as a minor it is illegal to have s*x in any state. However, I know the legal age to marry is different in a few states.

Good luck

Answer 2

It depends on where you live I suppose however, i've never heard of such law.

Here in NZ the legal age for s*x is 16 whereas some other places it's 18 and in others, 15.

Answer 3

Heres an Idea. How about focusing on your education alittle more and worring about s*x alittle less.

Answer 4

Ignore sepulved's statement that "it is illegal for a minor to have s*x at any state"..............I think it's legal for minors to have s*x with only other minors......maybe if 16 is the age of consent that might mean they can only have s*x with people above that age...I dunno.

Answer 5

What you are thinking about is the statutory rape laws, where it often makes a critical difference how much older the partner is than the minor.  This depends on the jurisdiction, and does not make it "legal" for you to have s*x, it just makes it highly "illegal" for your partner who is not a minor.  

Answer 6

If you are in the UK when you are 16 you can have s*x with whoever you like providing they are consenting and that they are above 16 as well.

If you live anywhere else check the law first.

And be careful - best to talk to someone / get advice before s*x.

At least USE a condom.
