Is it illegal for a 15 year old to date a 17 year old?
You can date someone of any age if there is no sexual activity. To have sex with someone under the age of consent is a strict liability crime (in most states) known as statutory rape. Age of consent varies between states from 16-years-old to 18-years-old. Many states also have age-gap provisions that legalize teen sexuality as long as they are within a certain age range.
