Best Answer

If you are thinking that your dating may lead to having sex with a 16 yr old then you need to do some homework before that happens. Do a web search for 'age of consent' and that should give you a list of websites that can tell you what the legal age of consent is in a particular state or country.

BEWARE: This can be dangerous territory for you. If you go ahead with sex and she is not of legal age consent, you can be charged with statutory rape even if it was consensual. If it gets reported to the police and it goes to trial, you will most likely get jail time and after you get out will have to live for the rest of your life as a registered sex offender /pedophile.
