Is it legal to have sex when you are a preteen?

[Edit]
It's not a crime for a preteen to have sex, but it is a crime to have sex with a preteen.

Most states say that it is a criminal act to have any sexual contact with someone 12 or under. Sexual activity before the age of consent can result in criminal charges. The laws vary from state to state, so you'd have to be specific about the state.
