16 here in Australia. You would think it would be "cool", but at the same it also inflicts a negative influence on the kids. Then again, it would make them feel less "rebelious" if the age bar is lowered.

Finland reporting.
I think that our laws state that if two people are both between 16 and 18 it's legal and then ofcourse with anyone when both are over 18. I am not sure but this is how I understand the law. Then both parts must ofcourse be willing to it at that moment ^^.

16 where I am (England) but they may as well lower it to 13/14 for all the good it does. I would say to raise it to 18 like everything else but considering 16 year olds can't do anything else (they used to be able to smoke at least) we may as well let them fuck. One interesting thing I was told was that there has to be a seven year difference in ages in order for one of the parties to be considered a paedophile.

Again British again saying 16.

Used to be that it was 16 for guy/girl and 21 for guy/guy and no stated limit for girl/girl.

The battle to bring the 21 down to 16 took many years but was done.

In the UK it's 16, though porn and alcohol are both restricted to 18 year olds. Alcohol, fine, but surely if you can have sex at 16 you should be allowed to buy porn at that age too? Especially since jerking off to porn is much safer than having sex with someone, except you can get condoms at any age, so why block porn until you turn 18? It's just pointless and stupid...
Agreed...

then again, it appears that they might as well change the legality seing as many 13-16yr olds go against the law and do it anyway. I mean, even if it was legal to have sex at 13 they have a mind of their own, and doesnt neccesserally mean they're all going to suddenly go out and sleep with someone any more then a 16yr old would. It all depends on the type of kid. If they're gonna have sex, they'll do it anyway regardless of the law as already proven by the ammount of 12-16yr old parents out there.

I'm pretty sure it's 16 here in Canada. Unless something changed and I wasn't notified.

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?

So what do you guys think?
Consider places where you can only buy alcohol when you're 21, yet can join the Army when you're 18... So technically speaking you could be killing people before you're legally allowed to buy alcohol.

It's 16 here in Enland, I think it should be moved up to 18 though; most people are really immature at 16.

England is 16, though most people don't pay attention to it since people being prosecuted for saturatory rape is seldom heard of in the UK, its more disapproving parents rather than legal action.

Although its 21 for gay men, and gay women? There isnt a limit. Why might you ask? because the queen didn't believe it possible for 2 women to be intimate in such a way.

The general age of consent in Austria is 14. There is a close-in-age exception of max. three years.

If one of the partners is younger than 16 years of age and ?not sufficiently mature to understand the significance of the act?, then the act is punishable.

16 here in Norway.

But two people can still have sex if they're both below the age of consent, right?
