The legal age of consent in Sweden is FIFTEEN (15) — a thread
ㅤ
On RP TWT nearly everyone is obsessed with age due to the legal age of consent and given that the US is typically used as a reference point it’s created a norm and ‘RP cultural’ where someone who is OA (18+) can’t interact with someone who is UA (-18).
Still, this does not mean that it’s an universal law. In Sweden the legal age of consent is 15. Which means that I am legally sound if I wish to role play w/ a 15 y/o. Below you can find ss and translations from Brottsbalken; the section that states all punishable laws in Sweden.
In the second ss you can view the law which prohibits adults and individuals over the age of 15 from having sexual intercourse with a child; someone who is under the age of 15. This can be found in “ 6 kap 4 § BrB “. Below you can find the translation of this law.
1)
Anyone who, with a child under the age of fifteen, commits intercourse or another sexual act which, in view of the seriousness of the violation, is comparable to intercourse, is sentenced for rape of a child to imprisonment for a minimum of two and a maximum of six years.
Anyone who, with a child under the age of fifteen, commits intercourse or another sexual act which, in view of the seriousness of the violation, is comparable to intercourse, is sentenced for rape of a child to imprisonment for a minimum of two and a maximum of six years.
2)
The same applies to a person who commits an act referred to in the first paragraph against a child who has reached the age of fifteen but not eighteen and who is a descendant of the perpetrator or is under the education of or has a similar relationship to the perpetrator-

-or for whose care or supervision the perpetrator is responsible due to a decision of an authority.
3)
If a crime referred to in the first or second paragraph is to be regarded as serious, is sentenced for aggravated rape of a child to imprisonment for a minimum of five and a maximum of ten years. In assessing whether the crime is serious, special consideration shall be given-

to whether the perpetrator has used violence or threats of a criminal act or if more than one has raped the child or otherwise participated in the abuse or if the perpetrator, taking into account the procedure or the child& #39;s young age or otherwise shown particular ruthlessness or

From the information above we can deduce that anyone from the age of 15 and above is allowed to legally have sexual intercourse in Sweden and are able to give consent before participating in any sexual acts.

The point I wish to make is that the legal age of consent VARIES.
The next time you decided to attack someone UA for interacting with someone OA, or vice versa, then remember what I just told you. As long as everyone is legally sound and no one is harmed, why should you care?
