Why isn't it okay though? We tell 17 year olds they can't have sex, can't drink, can't go pee without asking permission, and then the instant they turn eighteen, they can drink (in the UK), can join the army (in the US/Canada), and have to decide what they want to do with their lives.

I've know immature as fuck 17 year olds and immature as fuck 42 year olds. If they're just getting together to boink, I don't see an issue, tbh. Now if the older person is doing this as a control thing, and trying to 'own' the younger, then fuck yeah, judge away.

You can't have a legal standard based on how mature a person 'seems', though.

I do agree with that, what bothers me is... and maybe I don't really know how to word this, but... age of consent seems to be all over the map, literally.

In the US alone, it varies depending on state from what I've seen. I know you can't really base a legality on the seeming maturity of a person, but for people to judge this relationship (if it was consensual and she wasn't doing any sorts of coercion, of which I don't know because I don't know this woman from a hole in the ground) when he's apparently legal in his country of origin, seems weird to me.

Do I find the age gap at his age a little weird, kind of yeah, but I can also understand the attraction of being with someone more knowledgable about sex and the world at that age too. I only find it weird because like I said, as someone who's only 35, I really can't imagine what kind of connection I'd have with someone who's still in school. But if it's just for the sex, I doubt that connection matters to them.

It's not a matter of it being "okay," it's a matter of it being against the law. Like it or not, the law is the law. A responsible adult would say "hey, I appreciate that you're into me, but we're not going to do anything until you turn 18." The kid can legally fuck whomever he wants when he turns 18 and this wouldn't even have been an issue if they'd just kept their hands off each other until then.

DA

Personally, I find this age gap skeevy as fuck, but it's not against the law in 99% of the world.

which is completely irrelevant if it's taking place in the us where it IS against the law.
