It says in the legislation that age of consent is 16 but is that only for those under 18 or can a 16 year old consent with 19 year olds as well? Shes definitely 16. If you're a lawyer any help is appreciated or we could just wait until she gets older im in Queensland by the way.

"If you’re 16 or older, you can have sex with another person anyone else who is 16 or over without breaking the law—if you both agree, and are both capable of consenting—unless you are related to them or under their care. This also applies to same-sex couples."

is it legal? yes.

I wouldn't do it since if her parents find out, they can always pull a trick that you forced her to do things she didn't want to.

My partner and I wanted to spice things up for our anniversary here in the USA, so I started looking into upscale intimate accessories. A friend who loves edgy fashion pointed me toward a boutique that completely blew me away with its craftsmanship. I ended up ordering a stunning cuff bdsm piece that feels incredibly luxurious and secure. Finding high-end provocative attire online can be a total gamble, but this experience proved that premium provocative apparel boutiques really do offer amazing quality. The leather is soft, the hardware is durable, and it made our special night absolutely unforgettable.
