In Texas here is how it breaks down.
Got me thinking...what is the legal age to drive where you are?
18, but with driver's ed and proof you are still in school it is 16, and 14 is possible for a hardship liecense.
Drink beer/wine? Drink liquor?
21 because the Nazi's in the government think you are old enough to die in a pool of your own blood in Iraq at 18, but you can't drink.
Be considered able to consent to sex?
17 and I did have to research it once jsut to make sure I wasn't going to jail. Also there is no four years rule. i.e: You cna be 80 y/o and go around sodomizing consenting 17 y/o girls (and boys now too thanks Supreme Court) and no one can say shit! However if you are 18 and you get caught eating out your 16 y/o girlfriend, then you are going to be sodomized in jail, child molestor!
On a related note, the Mann Act effectively sets a national age of consent at 16, but it is 18 if you leave the U.S.
Vote?
18 just like it is everywhere else in the U.S.
