It is illegal to have be sexually active with a minor under the age of 18. The person over 18 could go to jail for statutory rape. In most cases it is the parents of the minor who press charges. * Individual states establish AOC, that is what determines when a minor may engage in sexual activity and when said activity is considered criminal. The youngest AOC is Hawaii at 14, Iowa and South Carolina 14 (PC); the oldest AOC is 18 in several states, the average AOC being 16, laws are applicable to both genders. In addition, many states have laws that cite specific discrepancies in age differences. Every state has laws that govern all relationships between minors and adults, not just those of a sexual nature. Therefore, an adult engaging in a relationship with a minor who is of the age of consent could still be charged with other felony violations such as; exploitation of an underaged person, corruption of the morals of a minor, subjecting a minor to pornography or lewd acts, and so forth.
