Is a consensual relationship with a minor legal?
No, it is not. A sexual relationship with a minor is illegal. It is legally impossible for a relationship with someone under the age of consent to be "consensual". A minor, or a child (because that is how the law regards them) cannot consent to sex. If there is an age limit for minor in your state that is older than the age of consent, then a sexual relationship with a minor over the age of consent is legal.

Why is the woman your brother married called your sister-in-law?
The term "in-law" is used to indicate someone who is "related" by law rather than by blood. Since marriage is a legal relationship (whether by common law or canon law) rather than a blood relationship, the term "in-law" is used.The term "in-law" comes from canon law (as opposed to common law). Canon law is law that governs the conduct of a faith's membership. In this case, the term refers to a relationship that is "not natural," that is, not by blood. So, your in-laws are granted a relationship that is between having no relationship and having blood relationship to you. Anyone of a blood relationship on the "in-law" side of the relationship are also considered your in-laws (father-in-law, son-in-law, etc.).

Is it against the law for a 16 yr old girl and a 30 yr old man to be in a relationship?
Well yea and no. It is not illegal to be in a relationship but if it is a sextual relationship then yes. That is because the girl is a minor and a minor having sex with an dult is called stagitory rape. Even if it is willing the adult can be charged and sent to prison and more than likely be sued by the girl's parents for all sorts of things. So if the relationship is not sextual than is is frowned upon but it isn't exactly breaking the law. Sexual raltaionships are illegal though.
