As of December 2013, the age of consent in Virginia is 18. Sexual orientation doesn't matter. If you engage in sexual activity with a minor who is under the Virginia Age of Consent of 18, you can be prosecuted under Virginia sexual abuse laws and charged with crimes ranging from sexual assault to first degree rape, regardless of whether or not the sexual acts were consensual. Depending on the charges, conviction can carry penalties ranging from one to fifty years in prison and registration as a sex offender.
