No, she's still underage and even with her consent, it's still considered statutory rape. Just remember that 16 will get you 20 (years in jail).

Well, what are u doing out of state...that is the question. If u are running away so that you can "further" your relationship; it depends on what state you live in and what the legal age of consent (which varies from state to state). Here in my state, 16 is the legal age. I would think you're fine at 17. However, if you ran away from home and your parents are not aware of this...yes there could be a bit of a problem...

Statutory rape is prosecuted by the STATE and there is no leniency for parental consent. In some jurisdictions the parent/guardians can be held liable and charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor, child neglect or accessory.\n\nStatutory rape is not only for intercourse!!!! Foreplay can be included in a rape charge against minors!!!!!\n\nIf the girl is not 18.........do not touch her if you are 19 or older. An over-zealous cop or DA can catch you "parking", or whatever, and make a LOT of people VERY miserable for LIFE!!!!!!!!\n\nSex crimes can never be lived-down.\n\n\n\nNot in today's society.

The age of consent in CA is 18.  There do not appear to be any exceptions to this.  So a 16 yr old with an 18 yr old (genger doesn't matter!) can result in a conviction for statutory rape.  \n\nThink:  Long prison sentence (probably as someone's "girlfriend") , lifetime child sex offender registration, lifetime felony record, loss of voting rights, loss of gun rights, etc.\n\nAnything worth having is worth waiting for.  2 years is NOT a lifetime!

Depends. Generally speaking, yes; except in cases where the 16-year-old cannot consent on the basis of mental condition, student-teacher relationship, etc.\n\nhttp://onlinedocs.andersonpublishing.com/oh_print/lpExt.dll/PORC/133b1/135f6?f=templates&fn=document-frame-chapter.htm&2.0#JD_h2-290702

You should not do it until you really feel you are ready and responsible to handle the consequences.  Having sex too young can be very confusing for a girl.  I would say no earlier than 17 or so, when you are thinking more like an adult.  If I could go back, I would have definitely waited until I was out of high school at least.  And I'll tell you one thing.  It is SO much more enjoyable when you wait to do it with someone you really care about and who cares about you.  Oh, and use protection!!!  I know too many people who have gotten pregnant or gotten sexually transmitted diseases (at any age)!!!

Actually, it depends on what state you are in. Yeah, 18 is legal anywhere, but in some places it would be okay for someone who is 26 to be with someone who is 16.

if you are 17,  you can have consensual relations with 13-16 year olds and older, as long as you are within 48 months, at least how I read the law. You will want to get a lawyer to tell you specific legal advice.

Do you mean, if you're just a little bit over the age limit and she's just a little bit under is it then only a little bit illegal?\n\nSorry - the law doesn't really work like that.  If she's under age, she's jail-bait, whether you're 18 or 80.\n\n.

It is fine. I am 24 and my husband is 35. we are very diffrent in age and it is great for us. Also not to say that it should be done or that it is legal and it has to do with the how mature the girl is. I feel it is fine to have relations with someone under the age of 18. many girls have sex befor the age of 18 but it should strongly weigh on her matuity. I think waiting untill the two people know that they are going to be married in the future is best or even waiting untill they are makes it even better. I know sounds a little harsh, but imagine this the people have just been married and how much more the two will want it and feel the romace of it all if they wait. Everyone has their own feelings about that though. If the two of them date for a couple years it is perfectly legal for the two of them to get married in most states befor the age of 18 and in some states can even do it now, but may still need a parents consent to do so. tell your friend and I am sure he will have even more fun making out how much he loves her to her and if marriage is something he really wants with her in the future making those plans with her too.

as long as both people are of legal age,no.\nBut you'd better know the other person isn't a minor.

Once the boy reaches 18 and the girl is still 16, the situation could become dicey (the boy is then an adult, the girl is still a minor).  So, at the time the the boy turns 18 (and is legally an adult), it may be wise to wait two more years until the girl is 18 to avoid law related concerns.\n\nOne more thing to consider.  If it becomes a legal problem, many times the prosecutor or DA will attempt to try 16 and 17 year olds as an adult.  If they succeed, even at 16 you could be considered an adult in the eyes of the law turning the charge into a much more serious offense.\n\nGood luck and be careful.
