I get that.

But there is a world of difference between being held down and forcibly, violently acted upon vs inappropriate yet agreed upon sex.

The verbiage should both reflect that difference as well as not dilute the absolute soul crushing experience that a real rape results in.


Not all rape charges are equal. There are varying degrees (first, 2nd, 3rd, etc.)

Same situation? Yes.

When I was in high school it wasn't uncommon for younger girls to chase older boys. It WAS uncommon for older girls to play around with younger boys though.

Also, I already admitted to a similar age gap between my husband and myself and that we started young.

True... but when being reported on in many cases, it gets boiled down to just "rape"...

I think nearly every state has laws that make an exception if they teens are a year or two apart in age.

hen you use the term "consensual", I believe the law says a person under the age of X cannot provide consent.


We know what the law says, but this is a very different situation from a teacher/coach banging a kid. This appears to be a relationship that many of us likely have a larger age gap with our spouse. This one does not have that power dynamic, at least with the info I'm seeing.

The laws I have seen make exceptions for when the age difference is a year or two or less.

So, 18 on 16, or 19 on 17 might be legal in some jurisdictions.

Well, charges have been filed, so apparently the DA in Utah feels like he can make a case.

My guess is she pleads down to lesser charges, has to register as a sex offender, and gets put on probation with no jail time.

Yeah I’m sure he was “raped”.

GTFO with this nonsense.

Register as a sex offender.

That's another thing diluted by absurdity.

Romeo/Juliet, bus mooners and dumpster pissers have no business being on such a registry.

Apparently this boy has a case of the gay. You're getting that at 14? Well done lad, well done.

Obviously he can make a case. The law is the law. I really just can't get on board with calling this rape. I had a gf in high school that lied to me about her age, and it could have gotten me a statutory rape charge if her parents had wanted to pursue it. Having sex offender status for something like that shouldn't happen IMO. Our gap wasn't anywhere near as big as this one, but still.

It has been successfully argued in court that the intent of these laws was never to regulate consensual relationships between high school students. Even those a couple of years apart.

I have a similar experience.

When I was 16, I began to be repeatedly abused by a 21 year old. It went on for years.

We’re now married and a few years from retirement.

She’s been abusing me now for more than 40 years.

If a 19 year old guy has sex with a 14 year old girl he’s going to jail and is a sex offender. There’s no difference here.

If we’re following traditional ages per grade we're talking sophomore in college and a high school freshman.

It’s Utah where it’s against the law to have sex before you’re 40

If you can’t trust a 14 year-old boy to keep his mouth shut about having sex with a 19 year-old girl, who can you trust?

I find Frankie Adams that played Bobbie Draper in The Expanse to be attractive in sort of unconventional way.
