”Don’t do it, she’s jailbait.”
Noun.
”Jailbait is a slang term for a sexually desirable person, usually female, who is often near to but has not yet reached the age of consent.” (Wiki) Failure to avoid doing the dirty with said individual is unlawful and may result in jail time under statutory rape laws. Jailbait has increasingly become a tossed around phrase, not necessarily even in reference to the age of consent, and is synonymous to “johnny-bait" and "forbidden fruit.” A similar term, Lolita, is an underage girl who wants to bang you.
”If we all hit puberty overnight on our 21st birthdays, American life would be a helluva lot less complicated. But, as the recent Miley Cyrus “back-gate” scandal revealed, teenage sexuality is a topic that America doesn’t want to think about, even as it just can't seem to stop thinking about it.
The age of consent, typically 16-18 in America (although can range from 12-21 worldwide), divides who can sleep with whom. It would also be illegal for two people under the age of consent to have intercourse, but treated more leniently if at all. Those are who are above the age of consent are responsible for any actions that occur with someone below the age of consent.
