Jail Bait: Somewhat has unfortunate implications in the sense that grown men have discussed how hot Betty and Veronica are for years, but in every incarnation, they're never older than 17. At least they're drawn as busty, curvy grown women and not obviously meant as pedo-bait.note Please note that the age of consent in New York (where Archie Comics is based) is 17, and in much of the rest of the United States, it's 16. (basically, one must remember that California's strict consent laws don't apply to the rest of the world or even the rest of America) Made a bit understandable in the case of people who grew up reading the comics. Betty and Veronica started out as a Precocious Crush for many young boys.
