Current statutory rape legislation in the United States is investigated for legal, logical, and practical inconsistencies. Statutory rape is divided into three focus areas for research---state discrepancies in statute wording, trends in United States enforcement, and philosophical or policy implications. Analysis shows that extant state discrepancies in statutes are not suggested by a wide variety of plausible state-level demographic or political variables, offenders with larger age gaps between themselves and their victims appear to be arrested more frequently than offenders experiencing smaller age gaps (which is contextualized as a protective mechanism neutralizing arbitrary statutory rape legislation), and numerous leveling mechanisms are available to improve the fairness of United States statutory rape legislation, including uniform age gap provisions, expanded age gap provisions, enhanced use of civil penalties, changing rape prosecution standards for acts involving minors, shifting the definition of statutory rape to relate purely to abuse-of-power dynamics, and taking dedicated action to change the United States' culture of the statutory rape experience.
