The Conservatives set the age of consent to 16, not 18.
With the following exceptions : 12 and 13 can consent to have intimate relations to someone no older than 2 years more.
14 and 15 can consent to someone no older than 5 years more.
( and no limit for 16 and beyond ).
If I recall correctly, the USA has similar exceptions called ''Romeo and Juliette laws'', but they vary by states, and USA's ''default'' age of consent varies between 16 and 18 depending on state.
You are correct, my brain can get fuzzy. I thought 16 still had some limits? But probably not. Better than 14 anyhow.
Yes some US States have proper laws & others put kids in jail if they turn 18 before their girlfriend does. It's always the boys too.
