Is it legal in NJ for a 17 year old girl to date a 21 year old guy?

Answer 1

There are no laws for dating. It's the parents who decide who their minor is allowed to see. Sex is only allowed when the minor have reached age of consent (16 in NJ) in their state. If the parents find it inappropriate they can get a restraining order against the adult and if the relationship is sexual the parents can report it and the court will decide after an investigation if the minor was used by the adult or not and if she understood what kind of relationship she got herself into even though she is age of consent and can legally give consent for sex. If the court finds she was used by the adult the age of consent can be raised to 18 which would make him guilty of statutory rape.

Answer 2

Yes a 16 yr old of any sex can consent to having sex or any other form of relations with an older male/female in New Jersey.
