Actually, if you are over sixteen (but not yet eighteen) and there is only a six year age difference, it is technically legal. In the state of North Carolina, that is. The age of consent is technically eighteen, but if you are sixteen you may engage in sexual acts with those who are no more than six years older than you (though at eighteen you may do whatever you please).

This is really a state-specific thing (at least in the US), so its legality really cannot be argued effectively. At least not in a universal sense.

Maine is the same way.

hey, I'm a Mainuh too, ayuh.
From what I know, the age of consent here is 16. 5 year difference for 14 and 15 year olds. :arr:

It's hard to say. My parents would never let me have sex, nor even date a man 22. Even if I was 16. But, I can understand why. I mean, it's not really about looking at the age, it's usually about the personality, and more importantly the difference between a full grown man and a teenaged girl. Hell, the guy could be 25, be the nicest man on earth. No drinking, drugs, gambling, wealthy, a hard worker, even a virgin looking for the right girl. The perfect man. And yet my parents would still say no. Because he's larger, stronger, older, and has the capability to hold me down and rape me if I do not want to have sex. It could happen with any, whether it is another girl. Not adding in anything that can change the situation.

It's hard to say whether you have the right to be mad, but you'd have to at least teach her to be careful. I am not saying it is wrong for a 16 year old girl to be dating a 22 man, or having sex with one. But it would be good to teach her to be careful, know that if the man hurts you, you can leave, etc. Really, if you are the parent who does not want his or her daughter dating him, then that's fine. But if you are more open, always remember that you still need to protect her, and that the 22 year old man will also need to know that, too. He'd also need to know that getting her pregnant, would be his fault to, since he is an adult and the most responsible one there. :no:

It's really up to the girl. If she wants to, then that's her problem, really.

Just adding my quick two cents in here, but..
Adults can be just as irrational and immature as 16 year olds can.

You have every right to be mad. Not only is it illegal,it's just plain wrong. I don't mold myself after a whole lot of moral codes and conducts but sex with a minor is something even I wouldn't try for.

- This has been a post by a mad man

Because it's a an elevation in social status if a man sleeps with a younger female. Sleeping with someone that young -- some believe that it puts you up high in the social food chain. Elevates their status as a man...which is why I wouldn't allow my daughter to date someone who is an adult if she herself, is legally still a child.

If both parties give consent then it is not rape and therefore nothing wrong is being done.

I understand the legality issue of it.

Personally, I feel at the age of 16 you have enough of a grip to understand if you want to continue with the man.

An eight year age difference isn't that much, really.
