I wouldn't have a problem with lowering it to 16. Putting someone in jail for having sex with a 17 year old seems kind of stupid.

Interestingly, Mississippi (until recently) enforced different legal ages of consent for men (13) and women (16).  The age was recently raised to 16 for boys as well following a pretty high-profile story where a gay pedophile ring was uncovered on the Mississippi Gulf Coast around 20 years ago.

What are y'all's reaction to this?

It should be the same age for both. I don't want to hear about all this "equality" business if you're going to brand a man a rapist and put him in jail for something that it would be fine for a woman to do.
