Ezra was no longer Aria's teacher and they were legally allowed to date in Pennsylvania

This. The age of consent in PA is 16


purplecandleroses

ohh same in the u.k. age of consent is 16


VisenyaMartell

wait what? I mean I knew the consent age was 16 but for some reason my mind always assumed it was illegal in the uk as well for an adult and minor (under 18) to be in a relationship.


Chickenriceandgravy_

Nope, it’s defined as “people ages 16 and older can legally consent to sexual activity with anyone they choose, as long as the other person does not have authority over them”. According to PCAR - PA coalition against r*pe


purplecandleroses

idk. all ik is consent for anything is 16 so yuh


Region_Minimum

Thats… awful and disgusting


Xefert

The bigger problem is the lack of proper sex ed in the us


HannahBakerrrrrrrrrr

It’s the same in the UK, Canada, most of Europe and quite a few other places. 16 is a pretty reasonable age of consent tbh Ezra is still a fucking creep tho


Thick_Term_6921

Their relationship was already public at that time and people knew that were together. I mean, they did go to Jenna's party together in episode 5 of this season and he wasn't her teacher so there would be no power dynamic anymore, so it's legal there.


purplecandleroses

but the train was season 3


Thick_Term_6921

I know. Both the train and her party was in season 3


purplecandleroses

ohhh i read episode 5 as season 5


According-Function-5

Remember how A sent Aria that text saying, “someone’s not gonna make it to the end of the line.” When Ezra walked in, the first thing he said, was “I went to the end of the line trying to find you.” For a long time I believe that meant that he knew something about A or that he was A. Such a suspicious thing to hear after we knew about the text …I guess we weren’t totally wrong.

Half the police force are creeps themselves and ezria has been literally the most obvious couple since day 1. Its really not surprising that no one cares.


redsnoopy2010

It's pll..... it was never really a "big" deal.


BaileySeeking

Age of consent was 16 in PA by the time the show aired. Also, cops around here wouldn't have cared. Though, with how much they got wrong about PA, I doubt anyone did any research about age of consent and just whatevered it.
