[null and void]

In this country there is a de facto three year rule, if the yutes engaging in sex are within three years of age of each other, the police can't be bothered.

This decriminalizes teen on teen sex, while still protecting them from adult predators.

Perhaps that rule could be codified into an actual law?

Perhaps that rule could be codified into an actual law?

In some states, that or a similar policy is part of the statute.

If there's a goal of discouraging teenagers from screwing around, producing babies and spreading disease, there should be some meaningful legal consequences, perhaps of the "fine and mandated counseling" sort. I think many parents would appreciate this, and those who don't care might at least take an interest in avoiding fines.

It is actual law in most states.
