Question: Can a 25 year old date a 17 year old in Texas?

Unlike Colorado for example, Texas does NOT have a Romeo and Juliet law. Texas statutory rape law is black and white: Its illegal for adults to have consensual sex with minors under the age of 17.

Can a 17-year-old be with a 25 year old in Texas?

The age of consent in Texas is 17. This means any individual 17 years or older can legally agree to have sex or participate in sexual activities. Therefore, any minor 16 or younger cannot consent to sex with adults.
