NO, it is not. It is there desition, no one else. It is there chioce, so if they make the wrong one, they will learn from there mistakes. I am a 16 yearold my self. It is no form of rape if they agreed to do it.

Not under law between two consenting adults. Though it is with a prostitute.\nMOST IMPORTANT THING:\nGOD DOES NOT SANCTION ADULTERY.

Tell the friend to get legal advice about child support.  I don't know Singapore law but I image that fathers are held responsible to support their kids just like they are here.  In Canada a 17 year old is above the age of consent and he would not be criminally responsible (unless the guy was in a position of authority).  As for her mental/physical hurt?  Did he rape her? If she had sex with him then she bears at least half of the blame.

There are lots of possibilities. In all of my explanations below, I leave out information that doesn't apply to children, as the statutes aren't written separately.\n\n1)Sexual exploitation of a child applies when someone performs a sexual act (ma$turbates, touches genitals, or commits an act of sexual penetration) or exposes his or her genitals, anu$, or breasts in front of a child, knowing the child can see, OR entices or coerces a child to remove his or her clothing for purposes of sexual gratification. This is a Class A misdemeanor for first offense, Class 4 felony for following offenses, and Class 4 offense if the child is under 13.\n\n2)Criminal sexual assault applies when someone commits an act of sexual penetration with someone who was "unable to give knowing consent," which applies to all children under 17 (the age of consent), or if the person was under 18 and a family member, or the person was 13 or more, but under 18, and the attacker was in a position of authority or trust. This is a Class 1 felony.\n\n3)Aggravated criminal sexual assault requires that the crime qualify as criminal sexual assault first. This applies if the accused is under 17 and the victim under 9, or if the accused was under 17 and the victim between 9 and 13 and force was used. This is a Class X felony.\n\n4)Predatory sexual assault of a child applies when someone over 17 commits an act of sexual penetration with a child under 13. This is a Class X felony.\n\n5) Criminal sexual abuse applies if someone commits an "act of sexual conduct" (sexual act except penetration) with someone "unable to give knowing consent" (again, applies to all minors). Also, if the accused is under 17 and the victim between 9 and 17, this applies. Finally, if someone commits an act of sexual penetration with someone between 13 and 17 and is less than 5 years older than that person, it is criminal sexual abuse. This is a Class A misdemeanor for the first offense and Class 2 felony for subsequent offenses.\n\n6) Aggravated criminal sexual abuse requires that it qualify as criminal sexual abuse. It is aggravated if any of the following apply: the victim was under 18 and a family member of the accused, the accused was 17 or over and the victim under 13, the accused 17 or over, the victim between 13 and 17, and force was used, the accused was under 17 and the victim under 9, or the accused was under 17, the victim between 9 and 17, and force was used. Also, if someone commits an act of sexual penetration with someone between 13 and 17 and is at least 5 years older, it is aggravated criminal sexual abuse. Finally, if a person in a position of trust or authority commits an act of sexual conduct with a child between 13 and 18, it is aggravated criminal sexual abuse. This is a Class 2 felony.\n\nTbere are other statutes, which may apply.

It depends on the age and the crime.  If a 17 year old commits Rape on a younger minor and almost kills her, mostlikely he'll get life.  Also depends on the locale of the crime.

It's unlawful to have sex with someone under 18, being as he is older but still a minor he still could be charged with rape. When your both over 18 and adults then your legal.

Was a thirty four year old man raped by another man?  If he was not willing, then yes it was rape.\n\nDid a thirty four year old man rape someone?  Then if they were not willing, it was rape.\n\nIf a thirty four year old man had sex with a minor (could be 18, 17, or 16, depending on what state youre in) then its statutory rape.

Actually yes, once you turn 18 he is a minor and you could be charged with statutory rape, in any state.\nReverse the sexes, it applies both ways.

if they have unprotected sex she will have it....Plus the baby would be born with it. Dont do that to a child...He shouldnt have sex with her either

No it isn't written anywhere in the Quran that the rape of a women is acceptable in any circumstances. The punishment for rape is death.

That depends on the laws in the state where this took place.  The age of consent varies by state, and there are certain exceptions which take age differences into account. Even if the guy was an adult, and the girl a minor, consensual sex -may- have been legal.\n\nYou'll need to be more specific - the ages of the guy and the girl the first time they had sex, and the state.\n\n**Ignorance of her age is not a defense, no matter what.**\n\np.s In his answer, ravi cites ages between 12 and 21 (but doesn't give a source).  I'd like to point out that NO state has an age of consent under 14 or over 18.\n\np.p.s. In some states, the age of consent laws have been amended so that an adult "in a role as an authority figure" (teachers or school employees, especially) can be charged with statutory rape, even if the age difference exclusion has been met.

You could be charged with obstruction of justice. Hindering a police investigation. Resisting a public officer. Contributing to the deliquency of a minor.  Accessory to assault on a minor.  Accessory to kidnapping. Withholding information.  It all depends on the jurisdiction and if you are found out. Bad business if you ask me. The girl should turn herself in and hope for the best.  Few jurisdictions would excuse the statutory rape charges, so the (boyfriend) is pretty much up the creek without a paddle if charges are pressed.

no.  that means that any girl can say that any guy raped her.\n\ni agree that the exam can be almost as traumatizing as the actual rape, \n\nbut sending an innocent guy to jail, just because some bitches are , well bitches,  is alot worse.\n\nthere needs to be solid proof, and unfortuntely, an exam is the only way.\n\neven a witness is unreliable,  if both friends hate one guy, they can get him thrown in jail.

As long as 12 year old girls are being raped by their fathers and or other relatives. And as long as guys are giving women Rohipnol at parties and as long as strangers are raping ad robbing women. I think they have the right to choose how to handle such situations.

There is no official legal age.  But you are considered a minor until you are 16, as far as stagatory rape laws are concerned.\nI believe that sex is an intimate act that should occur between two consenting ADULTS.  Children can't handle the reprecussions.
