    Only 10 US states peg age of consent at 18. Most are 17 a several are 16.

    Check Europe’s age of consent and age of marriage laws.

    If teens getting married or fucking bothers anyone here, have a look at your own laws before casting stones at the US.

        Nope. “Age of consent” means anybody can fuck anybody at that age. Parental consent can be a thing with marriage laws. Don’t know much about the particulars there.

          I’m talking about marriage… You’re adding in sex for some reason. Nowhere in any conversation has anyone said anything about having sex with someone under 18…
