What's the age of conset, from where you live?

[BritishWeather]

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...

I think you can buy NUTS, Maxim and FHM a the age of 8 or 10. Softcore as it is.....

Sixteen here in the UK, though alcohol and driver's licenses are at eighteen.

Actually you can get a drivers licence at 17...

Only provisional though, you can't get a full one until eighteen.

The Irish age is really weird because they had to change it in a hurry because a rapist got out of jail through some loop-hole and now it's based on age difference as well as age. I think a 16 year old can go with anyone up till like 21 and once your over 17 it ca be anyone.

Also if an over age guy has sex with an under (all of this with consent) age girl it's statutory rape but if is an under age guy with an over age girl it's not. Weird.

With the culture I grew up on, if you have balls or breasts, you an adult. But where I live, I think it's legally 18, but everyone tries to get laid at 13 anyway.

 

[dochmbi]

14 here for girl-man, and girl-girl.

man-man is 18 I believe.

Sounds unconstitutional to me, bring in the lawsuit.

 

[Sir_Tor]

15, Sweet Sweden!

 

[Tony Osborne]

For the UK, it's 16 for everybody; hetro and homosexual (It was lowered from 18 to 16 in 2000 for gay men, and included lesbians) So we're all the same now in Blighty!

 

[DarkHourPrince]

Ohio's 16 last I checked. I remember my buddy going "Woo, now I'm legal!" when she turned 16.

In Denmark you can have sex anytime you want. But it's illegal to have sex with someone under 15 if you are 15 or over. To legally have sex with someone in the ages from 15 and up to 18, you must not be more than 8 years older.
So if you are 23 you can legally have sex with a 15 yearold.
And if you're under 15 you can have sex with a 2 yearold

I call Bullshit.
The age of consent is 16, if I remember correctly.

Sooo....

Sex is more important than driving? O_O

Actually driving license is 17. But the point still stands.

 

[Fraught]

14? I think. Estonia's standards are quite low.

I was going to say 14!

I'm in Estonia too, by the way, but I wouldn't equate the age of consent being as low as it is to some sort of "standards". We are just less repressive than some other countries.

No, can get a full licence at 17. Provisional is just while you're learning to drive, then you get the full one once you've passed your test.

Um yeah, so it does say that the age of consent is 15, not 16, I'll give you that.

But the rest of your post, still bullshit.

I will admit that the last part about the 2-yearold probably is wrong, but about a 15-yearold and a 23-yearold and standby, untill someone can prove me wrong.
Just so you know I live in Denmark, so I pretty much live by these rules.

Another Texan here.
17 is the age of consent in the part of Texas where i live.
The Southeast.

Ah good ol Texas full of over developed 14 year old girls...

Well at least its like that in San Antonio.

It would appear so. Can't have those young people getting pregnant and then dying in drunk car crashes and losing a new generation in the process now can we?
Isn't it the opposite in the US with the driving age being sixteen?

Its probably best they do die in a car crash, knowing most teenagers, that new generation will be even worse.

 

[esperandote]

There are places where the age of consent is 15? wow... I wish I was there

18 here.

The lowest age of consent I can find is 9 in Yemen and Mexico. You need to be married in Yemen.

In Mexico? I must have missed something.

*goes out to find a 13 year old GF*
*goes to prision*

Actually it may be 12. I can't read this color coded map. 9 is dark blue, 12 is navy blue. Regardless that is only in certain spots of Mexico. Some points are 14, and one part is 18. Although, technically the lowest is Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Oman where there is no law on age, just that you have to be married.

 

[gigastrike]

I'm surprised that it's so low in so many places. I always thought that 18 was standard.
