Sven and Faye's "relationship"
Is it cold in here?:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ages_of_consent_in_North_America#Massachusetts (I picked MA because that's where the characters live and because it's got something funny in the statutes)
The age of consent in MA (18 or 16) depends on whether the younger participant is "of chaste life". So Steve really would have been illegal with Ellen before her birthday.
Other states are all over the place. Some of the exceptions for two young people are written in terms of what their age difference is. Virginia seems to work the way Surgoshan said, with the added wrinkle that the two hypothetical 17-year-olds could still be charged with having sex outside of marriage. That's a misdemeanor unless they do oral, which makes it a felony.
This is a fascinating topic drift. At least Kenny Wallace was in the clear: Georgia's age of consent is 16.

No, they wouldn't be charged with that in most states, since neither of them is over 18. However, some teenagers got charged with distributing and possessing child pornography recently, because they took naked pictures of themselves with their cell phones, and sent the photos to their boyfriends. http://blog.wired.com/27bstroke6/2009/01/kids.html

holy cRaP! what an awful story! Was she a mental case? How old was this guy? I knew a guy who did three or four for SR, and ended up marrying the girl. They were both kind of stupid, but I always suspected they were both damaged in soe way when they met. It's usually that way, isn't it?

well the great thing is that she broke up with me, then he cheated on her with a 15 year old, and he got 15 because he was already registered as a sexual offender.
oh god the whole story just makes me laugh.
Yeah my ex is really messed up, she was interesting though, and I liked the fact she never stayed the same way for very long, I knew it wouldnt last, but it was definitely fun while it lasted.
but yeah, now he is rotting in jail for I think it was called sexual assault? not that I care he's gonna rot and all is right in the karmic circle
championofkhorne:
god damn it no one cares if two 15 year olds have sex so even if it is against the law no cops are going to arrest them for it so it is irrelevant
Guido Sarducci:
what if an adult watches two 15 year old have sex? :|
