Good, Bad, and Illegal?
Manage episode 494711497 series 3657519
What happens when your first time falls into a legal gray area?
In this episode, we explore the complicated intersection of sex and the law — from age of consent and Romeo & Juliet laws to the wildly different ways jurisdictions define what’s legal, what’s criminal, and what’s left in between.
Sexologist and ethicist Dr. Neil McArthur joins us to break down the myths, talk through close-in-age protections, and help make sense of how even a two-year age gap — like 17 and 15 — can lead to serious consequences, depending on where you live.
Whether you’ve had a first time shadowed by fear or confusion, or you’re just trying to understand how the law shapes real experiences, this episode invites you into a conversation that’s overdue.
