I guess if you're eighteen and they're seventeen, then sure? But also if you're in college it'd be kinda weird to be with a high school student like that. Maybe on some technicality, but let's err on the side of don't do that.

In the United States, many states have adopted close-in-age exemptions. These laws, known as "Romeo and Juliet laws", provide that a person can legally have consensual sex with a minor provided that they are not more than a given number of years older, generally four years or less.

But yeah, it'd be weird anyway. I wouldn't do it. Only maybe if they have started dating when one is 15 and the other is 16 or something like that. Even then, at that age 1 year can be a non-negligible age difference.

i'm gonna be a junior in college next semester and couldn't even see myself getting with a freshman..meanwhile every other old married couple i know seems like they met at like 16 and 24??

insane to me how age gaps like that were morally acceptable back then yet being gay or bi somehow made you the spawn of satan
