[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]She is old enough to consent to somebody &lt; 4 years older than she is so it is not a sexual assault.[/quote]

Good lord she absolutely is not. She is no where near age of legal consent in any state …[/quote]

You don't understand the law.

the law is 16 to have sex with anybody you want.

If you are 14-15 you can have sex with anybody &lt;4 year older than you are.[/quote]

And actually I think it's insane that a 16 or even an 18 year old can consent to sex with a 50 year old or even a 28 year old, that is way more disturbing than 14 and 17.[/quote]

18 is a legal adult.  I think it's insane that you want the government to tell an adult woman what she can/can't do with her body.[/quote]

That does not mean they can always consent.[/quote]

Yes they can.[/quote]

You clearly don't understand consent.[/quote]

I clearly do.   You clearly do not.    An 18 year old can consent to sex with whomever he/she wants.

Are you talking about if they are incapacitated?  [/quote]

What about if there is an imbalance of power?
What if grooming started at 14 and sex started at 18?
What if they are a step parent, like Woody Allen?
What if they are trapped in an abusive marriage and feel they can't leave?
What if they are a prostitute and will be killed if they try to leave, thrown in a river and nobody cares. [/quote]

The last two you mention are under threat of violence.   That is not "consent."   Again, YOU are the one who clearly doesn't understand consent.
Yes, you can consent to sex with a step parent, if you like.  
Consensual sex at 18, regardless of how long you've known the person, is legal.[/quote]
