Some basic information about teen sex in the United States:

All 50 states have Romeo & Juliette laws allowing exceptions for statutory sexual assault crimes when sexual activity is between peers of similar age. The typical threshold is 5 years.

However, the floor of R&J statutes is typically 14 or 15. So a 13 year-old having sex is conspicuous. But also, teenage dating and boyfriend / girlfriend relationships often do not feature or even imply a sexual relationship. (When I was fourteen, I and a 10 year old family-friend decided we were bf/gf, even bathing together and having sleepovers, though doing nothing more risqué than Parcheesi.)

As a note, R&J laws often omit allowing for same sex intimacy. So if you're a teen exploring your LGBT+ side and want to keep it legal, check your state and county ordinances to see what is allowed.

The 'people also ask' section on Google is hilarious because it keeps adding results based on the ones you click and it gets stupider the further off-topic you go

Almost sounds like a chat bot got distracted by the mention of "17 as a grey area" but still remembered it was talking about a 13 year old and an 18 year old.

G FUEL?
Body fuels??
Casual mention of child abuse???

I feel like I'm looking into an abyss and would rather not know more.

My good quora is SOOO full of bots these days.
