You can legally have sex as 16 year old

not with an adult. that adult would be charged. someone i know was arrested for having sex with a 17yr old when he was 18 because 16 is the age of consent, but they still cant have sex with someone over 18 and as i write this i realise laws differ by country and even state. i dont live anywhere in europe.

It's not illegal for a 16 year old to have sex with an adult here in the UK (more's the pity!).

Are you in the US, Olivia?

Australia actually. I just looked it up and depends on which state. In some, those states require that the older party shouldn't be more than 2 yrs older. So that means a 16 year old sleeping with a 19 year old would be illegal in that state/case. I keep forgetting about how laws differ in different countries

I think the two years older law is a good idea.

Over on Coronation Street, Maria Connor's love life will soon be the least of her problems as she faces a terrifying experience in her own home.

Maria (Samia Ghadie) is already at the centre of one big storyline after recently having a one-night stand with Eva Price's boyfriend Aidan.

Maria's steamy encounter with Aidan remains very much on her mind later this month as Eva and Audrey Roberts both hassle her at the salon, claiming that she never should have dumped her boyfriend Luke Britton.

As Eva's opinion is the last thing she wants to hear at the moment, jealous Maria snaps at her by claiming that her relationship with Aidan won't last, before storming straight out of the salon.

Things then get even more stressful for Maria when she takes a walk on the Red Rec with her son Liam and finds Caz Hammond sleeping rough on a bench.

Although Maria is shocked to see Caz in such a bad way, she still refuses to take pity on her when Caz begs for another chance to move back in.

Later, arriving home after her difficult day, Maria is baffled to find the door to her flat open. As she enters cautiously, she's horrified to disturb a burglar who's lurking in the shadows.

Shoving Maria out of the way, the intruder makes a run for it, causing Maria to fall and crack her head on the edge of a table. Will she be okay?


Coronation Street airs these scenes on Monday, August 29 at 7.30pm and 8.30pm on ITV.

does caz organise the intruder

Eva and Audrey should mind their own business about Maria and Luke. How do they know what Luke's like as a boyfriend? Besides, he left Maria and threw the keys at her.
