Consensual sex between teenagers may not be a crime much longer. A Vermont Senate committee has taken up a bill that seeks to decriminalize sex between teenagers, if they're both at least 15 and within three years in age. The idea has been approved by the house. Supporters say they aren't condoning the activity -- but don't want to subject partners in teenage romance to criminal penalties and a permanent presence on the state's sex offender registry.
