| abstract | - When an adult (almost Always Male) expectantly waits for the day a minor (almost Always Female) will reach the age of consent and be fair game for sexual conquest. A key component in any good Wife Husbandry plan. Can become very Squicky very easily. Bonus Points if a daily countdown is kept of exactly how long someone has to wait before they can legally deflower their target. In Real Life, the age of consent varies from place to place, but in fiction it is almost always 18, largely due to SoCalization. For example, the above quote has it wrong; the age of consent is 17 in the state of New York. Note that despite the age of consent being under 18 in many places, you can still get arrested for e.g. contributing to the delinquency of a minor, so 18 might still be a good age to wait for. See also Ephebophile, someone who specifically doesn't wait for legal age. Related to Legal Jailbait. Sometimes goes in the opposite direction with a Precocious Crush. No Real Life Examples, Please We all know that nearly every child/teen actress has (or had) a "countdown clock" of some sort floating around on the internet. If you really wanna know... just Google it. Please. Examples of The Jailbait Wait include:
