In IL you're at the age of consent, but the 20 year old can still be prosecuted for statutory rape and sex with a minor. A female is strongly advised to wait until her 18th birthday to avoid legal ramifications.
Well i am pretty sure you can date. But, not be having sexual intercourse. You could find yourself going to jail if you have sex with the girl whom is 16... That is just wrong. Y can't people find people their own age and not underage. I am just confused.. shaking my head. You people need to figure out other questions to post. That isn't a good question you should already know the asnwer!
{| |- | There are no laws about dating ages. In Illinois legal age of sexual consent is 17, so they could have a problem, but check the laws for the specific state. It isn't a good idea, the difference in ages would indicate that the older one only has one thing in mind. |}
The person who answered this question is an idiot. Whether or not the 20-year-old is male or female, they should not be dating a 16-year-old, or anyone underage for that matter, no matter what state you are in. That is creepy and gross.
Depending if the 20 year old is male or female.
Yes, it is against the law for a minor who is 16 to date an adult who is 20.
There are no laws about dating.
Yes,it acuatally doesnt matter where you go,it is going to be illigal.
The date grows on the female date palm
Dating should be no problem. In addition, according to AVERT, the age of consent in Illinois is 17 years of age for a male and female. Thus, dating is not going to be your problem. What goes on during the date might be. Best wishes!

The two years listed on the flag of Illinois are 1818 and 1868. The first date is the year Illinois became a state. The second date is the date the state seal was redesigned.
There are no laws about dating in Illinois. There are laws about the age of sexual contact. Both are over the age of consent, so there shouldn't be any legal problems.
Yes, it's illegal. She's still a minor until she turns 18. It's worth the wait.
Summer 1818
In Illinois, the legal age of consent is 17. Therefore, it is not legal for an 18-year-old to date a 16-year-old in Illinois as the 16-year-old is below the age of consent.
Dating is not illegal. Sex between those two is illegal and prosecutable.
