Bear in mind that most states and counties have constitutional laws and statutory laws, and authorities may use either in a suspected criminal violation.If you are resident of the US then you must abide by the laws in your own State if you travel interstate or abroad. Wherever you travel to in the world you will therefore be under the AOC laws in your home state. This measure has been taken to cut sexual predators from committing offenses by traveling away from home.See "What does the age of consent mean" in the Related Questions below.Homosexual SexThe age of consent for homosexual sex is not always the same as it is for heterosexual sex.
