There is a big difference between a 14 year old and an 18 year old.

And that's why we have statutory rape laws. It doesn't matter if she gave her "consent" to the sexual activity. The law (rightfully) presumes that she is incapable of grasping the circumstances and consequences. The moment this 18 year old began getting physical with her, he became a rapist in the eyes of the law.

IANAL, but I think there's no such thing as "Statutory Rape" in PA anymore. There's statutory sexual assault (and a deviate sexual intercourse version, too). Question is, how is the age difference measured?
