Age of Consent: BF or Pedophile?

Romeo and Juliet Laws – What They Mean For Teens

You Say ‘Boyfriend’ – Some States Say ‘Child Molester’

Two-Year Difference = Ten-Year Sentence

The ages of consent in North America for sexual activity vary by jurisdiction. The age of consent in Canada is 16 and all US states set their limits between 16 and 18. The ages of consent in the countries of Central America range from 15 to 18. The age of consent in Mexico is complex. Typically, Mexican states have a “primary” age of consent (which may be as low as 12), and sexual conduct with persons below that age is always illegal. Sexual relations between adults and teenagers are left in a legal gray area: laws against adults “corrupting” minors may be used sometimes to punish such sexual encounters, as well as laws against engaging in sexual relations with “chaste and honest” teenage girls by means of “seduction”. These laws are situational and are subject to interpretation.

Below is a list of all jurisdictions in North America:
