It might be different depending on state, but age of consent only matters if you’re within 5~ years of the victims age, so say the victim is 16 and you’re 19, then it’s fine. If you’re 29 and the victim is 16 though, then that goes out the window.
I don’t have a law degree but I’m currently on grand jury and have sat on a few SVU cases where age of consent has come up so I figure I know at least a grain of knowledge

The age of consent still matters for the 29 year old it just might be higher.
