Since these things vary by state, I just looked up the RCW (state of
Washington):
Apparently, they go by who's older.
If the younger person is less than twelve, and the elder is more than 3
years older, then it's Child Molestation (1st Degree).
If the younger is 12-14, and the elder is more than 3 years older, then
it's Child Molestation (2nd Degree).
If the younger is 15-16, and the elder is more than 3 years older, then
it's Child Molestation (3rd Degree).
If the younger person is 16-17, and the elder is more than 5 years
older, then it's Statutory Rape.
I might have missed some.
So, in the state of Washington, if you're within 3 years then there's no
penalty for it. Once the younger person hits 16, then you've got a 5
year window. At 18, there are no limits.
