In some states a male does become an adult at the age of 18. * There are not discriminatory laws relating to the age at which a minor becomes a legal adult. The age of majority laws apply equally to both genders. In most states the legal age of majority is 18, in Nebraska it is 19. Three other states have confusing legal age laws because the statutory law conflict with the constitutional law. This allows the state to apply the law that is most effective in individual circumstances (child support for example). Those states are Mississippi and Washington D.C. where the constitutional law is 21 and the statutory law is 18; and Alabama where the constitutional law is 19 and statutory law is 18. In addition all persons reaching the age of 18 have the legal right to vote regardless of the state's age of majority. All states also have age restricted or waived laws pertaining to buying and consumption of alcohol, etc. and the age at which a minor can be charged and prosecuted as an adult for a criminal offense.
