Is anyone familiar with the sexual consent laws in NYC?
How old do you have to be to have sex? Is it different for boys and girls? Is there a restriction for hold old of a person you can sleep with before it's illegal.
I'm not a sicko! I'm just curious. Ha ha.

Go to www.newyork.gov and look up the laws yourself.
Do not listen to "experts" here unless they are a law officer or a lawyer in New York.

i think the legal age for consent everywhere in the US is 18. as far as age difference, i think it's at the discretion of the judge. if there's a situation where a guy is 18 and the girl is 17 and they've been dating for a while, it might be ok.
but in a large age discrepancy - 18 to 14, that would be bad.
