tux agony auntA 15 year old will be legal for a 18 year old always when the 15 year old is 18, which is impossible considering that a 15 year old will always be a 15 year old.. When they turn 16, they cease to be a 15 year old.

But as far as when it will be legal for you to have sex with your older boyfriend.. it depends on the laws of the land in which you inhabit. Some places may have the age of consent as low as 14 and beyond but also keep in mind that they may forbid a guy who is 18 from having sex with a girl that is 14 even if the age of consent is 13. Age of Consent laws can be murky at times.. Best to read the laws of where you live.. or better yet.. ask an attorney.

As you live in Australia, it does depend on State laws, but most states hold the Age of Consent to be 16.

Meaning a 16 year old is deemed old enough to decide for themselves if they have sex, and who they have sex with.

In the United States, most states have adopted that it is illegal for someone over the age of 18 to have sex with someone younger than 18 years of age. This may differ depending on the laws in your jurisdiction.

babyminow agony auntIt depends on where you live. Every state is different. Like my state there is a three year curve as long as we go to the same school. The best answer is to say look it up in your state

Libra1963 agony auntIn the UK it is 16. How ever the longer you wait the more you can be assured that he truly loves you. Do not be in haste to have sex. The younger you are the more you hurt when things go wrong and he leaves you for another young one. By that time you will be described as the village bike. Wait - there is no rush!
