17. You are confused about what age of consent is

The age of consent just means that person can have sex with someone not more than XXX years older than them. A minor is someone under 18, regardless of anything else. Let's say the AOC in a state is 15, and an adult can't have sex with anyone more than three years younger than them. In this state, they can have sex with a 15 year old, but not a 14 year old, not could they of they were 19. However, NO ONE can have sex with someone under 15, regardless of whether the person having sex with that person is 15, 16, 17, etc... because the other person is under the age of consent AND a minor.
