If they're under 18, and have to ask, then yes, it's rape.

Please get them to stop, I'm sick of paying $50K in income taxes each year so your idiot friends can procreate and live off welfare.

Although most of these laws protect young persons (of either sex) from the sexual exploitation of older individuals, the laws of Arizona, Florida, and Illinois permit prosecution of both minor females and minor males for engaging in mutual sexual conduct.
