Adolescent Development

Question 11 • DBN MI Health

Which sexual situation would result in a legal consequence according to the law?

Answer

After the movie, Tia gets mad at her boyfriend when he refuses to have sex. He drops her off at home and they don’t speak for a week.

After dating only three weeks, Rylee and Renee have sexual relations.

While at a party, Lukas slips a pill into Andi’s drink that puts her to sleep. He proceeds to have sex with her while she is unconscious.

After having consensual sex with her boyfriend, Lenna has regrets and threatens Kyle with legal action.

Explanation

A person who is unconscious cannot consent to sexual activity. Lukas secretly drugging Andi and having sex with her while she is unconscious would therefore have a legal consequence. The other situations, as described, do not establish that the sexual activity was nonconsensual or otherwise unlawful.
