  • So a middle aged man (let's say Hugh Grant) can have sex with a 16 year old girl? Or a 16 year old boy?

    • Actually in my country, yes. It's perfectly legal.

      • As in some states in the US too.

        In Virginia parental consent is required between the ages of 16 to 18.

        I knew one girl who was 16 and dating a 19 (or 20) year old. Her step father called the cops on the older boy but.... her natural father had legal custody and had given permission.

        Therefore no matter how mad her step-daddy was... he had no legal say in it, and the girl continued to sleep with her boyfriend unhampered by the law.
