"Sexual Offences (Amendment) Act commenced Jan 2001. Harmonised and equalised it with heterosex. Age varied prior to that depending on where you were. Different rules applied in NI and Scotland and England and Wales, due to the different legal systems in those countries. " That seems right but so many have been mistaken. Thank you ![]() | |||

"Not sure when. But, age of consent for sexual intercourse is 16. The anomaly is that images of under 18s are illegal, even if sent or shared by the actual person. So the age of consent online is 18." I thought that doesn't make sense and it should be 18 across the board. | |||

"Defo 16 but not sure when, i thought it was when the tories were in power before Blair but I could just be mistaken " John Major's government reduced the age of homosexual consent from 21 to 18 in 1994. Tony Blair's government reduced it from 18 to 16 in 2001 with certain provisos such as a gay person cannot use a site like this until they are 18. | |||

I am very fortunate to have missed all that came before. The age restrictions and the illegality before that. A massive thank you to all that came before and fought for our rights. I grew up in a world where homosexuality is accepted. I have only had one person in my life diminish me for being gay. A massive thank you to you all ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | |||
