I have known about the age of consent since I was around that age myself, because we were informed about it in sex education in school.
If you don’t know these things, it’s because your school sucks, or maybe because you are stupid, or maybe you are not old enough?
Admittedly I didn’t know the difference in age in American states, because I’m in Europe, but it was extremely easy to find the page on Wikipedia, that has everything laid out very clearly.
But thanks for the implication that it should somehow be suspicious to know basic facts. You must be very special, since you suspect people for knowing things!
Edit PS:
It would also have been legal in my own country, but of course the teacher would be fired.
Considering I linked the info from wikipedia, this must be the stupidest comment in this thread.
Age of a consent is a common thing in all countries, but the age is different.
In this case, age of consent is mostly irrelevant. A 26 year old fucking a 16 year old is bad, legality is unimportant. The fact that she’s been charged, means that it’s probably not legal. How about we just say “wow, that bitch raped a child”, instead of being pedantic.
I agree that age difference should be a factor, and as you can see from the Wikipedia page I linked above, there are countries that have additional limits based on age difference.
Legality doesn’t matter to me. This is morally wrong. The age difference is wrong. The abuse of trust and authority is wrong. And linking a wikipedia page to where this would and wouldn’t be legally okay, is a little weird. A 30 year old woman fucking her 50 year old boss is wrong in a similar way, but not necessarily illegal.

Your European school’s curriculum went over every single US state’s age of consent?
