It will after the police find out about those 15 year olds you have stached away in your basement
But I don't have a basement...
You better hope the cops believe that.

In Denmark it's 16.
At the age of 16 you are allowed to:
Have sex
Buy porn
Buy alcohol
drive scooters
and get your ass thrown in jail.

You can't buy cigarettes or drive a car until you're 18 though.
Woah you can do all those things, but not drive O_O

I would have thought that driving was more important than those things :p
Yeah, I can watch porn, then do a hooker, get drunk and drive home on my scooter and then be arrested and put in jail.

But I can't have a relaxing cigarette in my car...
......I laughed imagining someone having sex and then driving home in a scooter.

15 if both participants are under 18, else 16.

To comment on the general view, I?ll quote a military song: ?Fjorten, i orden?. Basically meaning that 14 is old enough.

It is eighteen here and I don't think it should be any earlier. Hopefully at age eighteen you are able to recognize when someone is trying to take advantage of you just for sex.

You don't think a 16 or 17 year old should be that smart? That's depressing.

They will, because I do not have a basement. ;P

Some of your countries have fucked up laws. Like being unable to date before a certain age (How do you define dating, and how the hell do you enforce such a law), and different age of consent for different types of sex. Thats just weird.

Anyway here in denmark its 15 for sex, 16 for drinking, 18 for driving and smoking.

I'm just curious on how different the age of consent is around the world and how you guys view it.

So do you agree with the age of consent in your country? Do you think it needs to be reformed? Is it working at all where you live?

Here in Texas the age of consent is 17 and the only problem I have with it is that if a person can legally have sex at 17 then why is it illegal to buy porn at that age even though you are having sex?
Why buy porn if you can have sex? =P

It's 16 here, although I don't really think it makes a difference.

Well I thought it was hypocritical to have sex but not watch people have sex on TV.

I might be biased by all the stupid younger teens around here. Some of them making some stupid decisions (walking around alone late at night, hanging around the seedy areas of town, etc)

Here in Canada it's 14 with in 5 years until 18. Meaning a 14 year old can go as old as 19, 15 as old as 20. Until 18 then you can have sex with as old as you want. So a 18 year old can't go to jail for having sex with a 17 year old. Also it let's people 14+ buy condoms legally and stuff like that. Kids will be having sex regardless and denying them access to condoms would just be penalizing the ones who want to be safe. I'm happy with our system.

Seeing the kind of people I was in High School with, I'm gonna have to say yes to that guy. There's barely any mature 16 or 17 year olds in my town.

It's 16 over here in Washington STATE. But if you're over 18 and you try having sex with a 16 year old, it's illegal.

I personally think laws that govern people's relationships are just stupid. If people want to do something that personal let them do it. Of course I'm probably completely wrong.

Well people will argue that a 16 year old isn't mature enough to make their own decisions with who they want to have sex with.

And the younger adults or even the older adults aren't equally stupid?

Although, seriously, of all the stupid decisions 16 and 17 year olds make....walking at night is the first thing that comes to mind?

Are the 18 year olds significantly more mature?

Sometimes...

This is why I don't like these laws people mature differently or never. And sometimes people think they're old enough to make their own decisions when they were never ready to begin with.

So I don't know what to change.

I think the age of consent in Michigan is 17 if you are under 21 or 18 if you are over 21.

.... However a girl who was 9 went through the hospital for an abortion in this city...

and 12 and 13 seem to be about the time most of the pregnancies happen around here.....

If I got started as young as these kids, and my children and their children got started that early I could be a Great Grandpa now... (my grandpa could be a Great, Great, Great, Great, Great, Great grandpa.)
