Not obtaining consent? Illegal. Obtaining consent? Also illegal.

No person shall solicit another, not the spouse of the offender, to engage in sexual conduct with the offender, when the offender is eighteen years of age or older and four or more years older than the other person, and the other person is sixteen or seventeen years of age, whether or not the offender knows the age of the other person.

This applies if you're over 22 and communicating online with a 16-17 year old about sex. Calling, stopping by...

Unless you're a gay woman I bet.

With things going on like the way they are going right now, I can't wait for the fembot sex robots.

What did that article have to do with the "Seventeen" magazine they have a image for ?

Yes but this also applies to women; if a woman asks a man for sex she'd be liable under these laws.

Nice going, liberal MRAs

From the actual article

a 20-year-old who asks a 16-year-old to have sex with him, or a 21-year-old who does the same with a 17-year-old, thereby commits a fifth-degree felony, punishable by six to 12 months in jail and a $2,500 fine. He also has to register as a sex offender.

WTF? Why does this only apply to men?

This isn't specifically a men's rights issue, nothing to suggest that the law is inherently unbalanced for either gender.

There's potential for the law being unevenly enforced, of course, but there's nothing in the article pointing to that.

Pretty much everything suggesting a gender bias is assumed or made up by the OP.

There IS the issue regarding sexual behavior of teenagers. One CAN make the argument that laws in that area basically ignore reality. But that doesn't make it a men's right's issue. This is the wrong sub.
