Some states have “Romeo and Juliet” laws that protect relationships that started before either partner was past the age of consent. Kinda a weird name for it tbh.

This is so true and the only reason those laws should only ever exist!

Yea in my state in Aus we have so many nuances in the law for age of consent for this reason which is great but also kinda icky that we have to have them.

I’ve heard of that! I think it’s called the Romeo and Juliet law?

Iraq is planning to lower the age of legal marriage for girls from teen to 9. I'm on the verge of denouncing my own damn religion because of them.

there's still the issue of the child marriage laws which is fucking disgusting loophole that creepy men can use to grape little girls legally. so long as they can get the parents on board and some religous communities if the creep is wealthy and a leader in the church well that's all it can take

For a couple months my boyfriend at the time was 18 and I was 16. It was legal in my state for us to date

Hi! I’m the original comenter! The thing is that in my country the age difference doesn’t matter, this might be true in the us but it’s allowed for a 40 year old to be with someone that age

age of consent should apply to 20 and under only and it should also have a year gap stipulation. that way there is 0 confusion

the laws that say the 2 year or 3 years are called romo and Juliet laws in some places that say basically if you are in the age of consent (for adults to be with) and your partner is 2 y younger 👍

i think that is how the laws of consent should be viewed but that's not what they do and I don't think that was why they were made.

I always saw it as a 16-year-old can consent with another 16-year-old so it always confused me when people try to say a 16-year-old can consent with an 18+ year old

In my state in Australia age of consent is 16, but also someone aged 12-16 can consent to a person up to 2 years older. so it looks suspiciously like the law here is to protect adults.

I think the romeo and juliet law is a much better idea than lowering the age of consent...but that's just my opinion

If you’re using a quora ring and natural cycles as your contraceptive while childfree, that is super risky.

The age of consent in California is 18. I think we have Romeo and Juliet laws though. I’m not 100% sure.
