  • @2NZ4: In California, the laws regarding consensual sex between two 17-year-olds are a bit nuanced.

    According to California Penal Code Section 647(b), any person 14 years of age or older engaged in oral copulation is considered a misdemeanor of the first degree. (Note: This applies to vaginal, anal, or oral sex.)

    However, if both parties are 17 years or older, it is generally not considered a crime.

    But it's essential to note that:

    1. **Emancipated minors** (those who are married, in the military, or have completed their GED) can engage in consensual sex with adults, including 19 years or older.
    2. **17-year-olds can engage in consensual sex with other 17-year-olds**, but it's still illegal if one party is in a position of authority (e.g., teacher, coach, or teacher's assistant).

    If you're 17, it's always best to keep in mind that engaging in sexual activities can lead to health risks and potential consequences. You can look into chatbots which can easily have information in their users that are 17 and above
