19 here. I don't remember what the curfew around here is, though I'm thinking midnightish. Yea I found out a while back you have to be 18 to buy Krazy glue too. Was buying that and something else at the self-checkout counter at Wal-Mart and it made me go get an employee to check my ID.

In NZ the girl has to be over 16 for you to have sex with her, but the guy can be anyage and that's how you get 25year old female teachers having sex with 14 year old male students, not like that's happened or anything.

Wait you guys have curfews?

So you can't be out walking, past your curfew time :?


Hahhahahahahahaha :lol:

In Oklahoma we have a statutory rape law. The age of consent is 16. I'm not sure if there are actually any consequences for a 17 year old and a 15 year old, but for and adult ( 18 ) and someone under the age of consent, the adult can be charged with statutory rape.

And yea, curfews suck for the younger people. I have to say, it's pretty funny to walk into a Wal-Mart with 3 or 4 friends at 2 AM and buy about 80 rolls of toilet paper and 2000 plastic forks.

"I'm sorry, are you 18?" "Yep, how much is all this?"

Well curfew is decided by the local municipalities, in my city it's midnight to 6 AM.

Our curfew is you cant be in any public parks past 10pm and off the streets by 1 am, but you can be out at any hour as long as your in a car (which implies you have to have a driver license, which almost any 16 year can get), so go figure...
