What in the hell are you talking about? If the age of consent in
Texas is 17 or above under law, that means that a 21 year old
and a 17 year old having sex is entirely lawful.
And that means you don't know what you're talking about and you
can't read.

What does that have to do with going to prison and getting
cornholed?

I think you've got entirely too much time on your hands-perhaps
you should devote it to studying the Texas Penal Code section
21.11
