If you're not related the age of consent in Kansas is 17 if you are related it's only 13. Is the girl in question your relative?

The age is 16 so you should be fine - unless you are a school teacher - Kansas is an odd one, read below.
Kansas law prohibits various sexual scenarios, and has a special category for sex with a person between 14 and 16. Adults breaching this criminal sodomy section face harsh penalties, but Kansas lawmakers carved out some
breathing space for youthful miscreants, provided they are 18 or under, and within four years of age of their consensual partner. Called the "Romeo and Juliet" law, the provision limits the penalty for teen sex to 15 months in jail, and does not require the perpetrator to register as a sex offender. But the "Romeo and Juliet" law only applies to heterosexual teen-agers. Also it is a felony for school employees to have consensual sexual contact with students ages 16 or 17, even if it is only french-kissing

I believe there is no problem if you both agree. Some people are arguing about this case because *age restriction* for sexual intercourse in Kansas is 16. Plus did you know you only have to be 15 to be able to marry in Kansas!!!
Hope that helps you => ciao** Chiquiz*08

Just as adolescents and store clerks certainly know the legal age for purchasing alcohol and tobacco they should know there are similar laws in place for minors engaging in sexual activity. The legal age of consent in Kansas is 16. This means that those under 16 can not consent to sexual activity under any circumstances. This makes even consensual sexual relationships with similar-age partners illegal under Kansas’s law. The punishment for violating this law is usually a sentence of probation.
In the recent highly publicized “kiss and tell” trial Judge J. Thomas Martin ruled that mandated reporters as to whether under age sex or any other behavior is to have caused injury. In other words adolescents will continue to have the protection of the right to receive confidential health care and counseling services.
Teenagers and their parents can find comfort that seeking help for mental or physical health related issues where illegal sexual activity is divulged is by itself not a basis for being reported to the authorities. Parents who discuss these recent legal findings with their teenagers are allowing for the opportunity to build open and trusting rapport with their teens and thus making them less vulnerable to investigation and prosecution by authorities.
