Re: statory rape
If you're not having sex, it's okay for her to help you blow out your birthday candles.
If you are having sex, statutory rape applies when the under-15 victim is at least four years younger than the other child. It is true that 18 minus 14 equals four; however, if you are now 17 and she is 14, you will never be four years older than she is.
That means you still get to blow out your candles together.
