In my country it would be legal, as the legal age of consent is 16. It's very weird that a woman that age wants a boy aged 16, but I don't think it's necessarily worse that he has sex with an older woman as opposed to a girl his age. I was attracted to women who were at least 30 in that age, those I told rejected me because I was too young(and possibly several other reasons..) I never thought they saved me from sexual traumas. Did they?
