There's a close in age exemption in Florida permitting persons 16 or older to have sex with partners under the age of 24, is there not? When I visit florida later in the year would it be legal to have sex there?
That's not what a close in age exemption means. It doesn't meant that it's legal to have sex with a 16 year old, it means that you'll be charged with a lesser offense.
So the answer to both of the above questions is, NO.
