She is.
But if you think for a minute you're gonna talk your male friend out of it .. think again. Feather in the cap.
Of course, you could use the "if you care about her would you want her to have SEX OFFENDER tattooed on her permanent record?" line.
I think 15 is statutory rape, regardless of gender?

I don't think it's exactly "wrong" but it's really pointless for the 19 year old. I think she should try dating someone her own age and forget about guys who are still going through puberty. Or the other way around, I take it that the girl is the 19 year old though. But yeah, it's pretty pointless to date someone who is completely of base from you, whether it be about experience, or just that the 15 year old could be too immature. I don't think you should worry about it though, it's not really your place- unless she's having sex with him, therefor she could be in trouble.

Dating is fine... if somewhat strange. But, its the things the 19 year olds want to do thats the problem. Don't matter if its a she or a he thats 19.... the 15 year old is jail bait.

In the case of a 19 year old female and a 15 year old male, I hope she's aware that if she has sex with him and a police officer finds out, it's a felony and her name can be added to the national sex offender's registry. Sex with anyone who is under age 16 is illegal, even if it's consensual.

Absolutely, my 16 year old niece ran away with a 20 year old guy, and we haven't heard from her in about two weeks. I think the situation applies to either sex, vice versa. Maybe the boy thinks its cool to date an older girl, but it is making her look like a cho mo. Tell her to get with someone her own age.

I wouldn't think it as bad if the guy was 19 and the girl 15. But, I mean, that's gotta be some maturity gap. I don't think it's right, plus, it is illegal. I think you should kindly state your opinion, but you can't do much more than that.

You really can't do anything. I think it is wrong. I mean he is almost an adult and she is still a confused teen. I think it would be ok for a 19 year old to date a 23 year old though.

if it's the other way around like the guy is the one much older, it would still be practical but a guy dating a 19 yr old girl?..duh..its sort of awkward to see them go out..

Yeah thats kinda wrong. The real question is why he cant find someone his own age to date. I think when your that young 4 years is a big gap.

age is nothing but a number, look at marriages today, there are some couples that are 10-20 yrs difference, the only time it really matters is when your in school. thats when people make a bigger deal out of the whole age thing.
