What's the age of consent in your (US) state or country?

Just asking for a friend...

16 with parent permission here, but nobody asks for permission. You just gotta hope if the parents find out they’re okay with it. Also they have ‘Romeo and Juliet laws’ so if the person is older than the minor they have to be no more than 4 years older.

New Mexico. I actually just looked it up and I think I was remembering the age of consent with marriage. It’s 16 with a spouse, 17 is the general age and the Romeo and Juliet laws apply to minors between the ages of 13 and 16, with the older party no more than 4 years older since the age of consent is actually 17. Hope that makes sense. @MessieNessie

@GlitterBug that's wild. I live in california...believe it or not we're pretty strict on the age of consent here.

18 makes sense to me. At that point they are an adult legally. Not sure why New Mexico has these loopholes. @MessieNessie
16 for sex 18 for alcohol. At least it was when I was a kid might have changed now

@Gusman Queensland I think you can have your P plates at age 17 rather than 18 like NSW and Victoria.

It's 18 for alcohol. Possibly 16 for sex. Not 100% sure though

16. Though 14 years old can give consent to 18 or younger.
