In Wisconsin, the age of consent is 18 years old. In some states, “Romeo and Juliet laws” exist. These laws make it legal for individuals to engage in consensual sexual activity if they are close enough in age, and either one partner is or both partners are under the age of 18.

Can a 18 year old date a 16 year old in Wisconsin?

In Wisconsin, it is illegal for an adult (someone 18 or older) to have sex with a minor (someone younger than 18), even if the sex is consensual. Those who break the law have committed statutory rape.
