Don't get me wrong, I hold no interest in doing so, but I am really curious. If somebody has already come of age but they are mentally retarded/challenged/whatever the politically correct term is, is it legal for a non-handicapped adult to have sex with them or does it count as paedophilia/abuse? Is there a difference if the mental retardation is just mild? What if two developmentally delayed adults have sex with each other?Is it legal to have sex with a mentally handicapped adult?it matters if they can understand what is going on so they can consent to doing it...not all mental disabilities make it illegal to have sex with a non-handicapped adult but others can it all depends how mild it is...if two mentally handicapped adults have sex then that is perfectly fine as long as they both can consent.Is it legal to have sex with a mentally handicapped adult?
In the state in which I live, too handicapped adults could be going at it like flipping rabbits , they can NOT legally stop them........They have the SAME rights as anyone else does to yes and no....., and do drink and to do ANYTHING a regular adult would do.......Is it legal to have sex with a mentally handicapped adult?It certainly isn't in the UK - S31 Sexual Offences Act 2003 http://www.opsi.gov.uk/Acts/acts2003/ukp鈥?/a>Is it legal to have sex with a mentally handicapped adult?
Legally, it's okay. Morally, it's okay when you're married to that person, and if that person is of the opposite sex.Is it legal to have sex with a mentally handicapped adult?if capable of giving informed consent, then OK
the question is what is "informed" consent. Just uttering "yes" does not mean it is informed.Is it legal to have sex with a mentally handicapped adult?
No many people have been imprisoned for this. That is sexual battery.
