    Homosexual Age of Consent Law
    My question involves criminal law for the state of Utah is: "Is it legal for a male of 19 to have 'cam sex' with another male aged 16?"

    I don't know what cam sex is - and don't think I want to know...
    But here is Utah law cut and pasted from
    http://www.moraloutrage.net/staticpa....php?page=Utah


    Enacted by Chapter 82, 1998 General Session
    76-5-401.2. Unlawful sexual conduct with a 16 or 17 year old.
    (1) For purposes of this section "minor" means a person who is 16 years of age or older, but younger than 18 years of age, at the time the sexual conduct described in this section occurred.
    (2) A person commits unlawful sexual conduct with a minor if, under circumstances not amounting to rape, in violation of Section 76-5-402, object rape, in violation of Section 76-5-402.2, forcible sodomy, in violation of Section 76-5-403, or aggravated sexual assault, in violation of Section 76-5-405, the actor who is ten or more years older than the minor at the time of the sexual conduct:
