It varies greatly from state to state.
Pennsylvania is similar to Iowa's laws.
"(7) who is 'less than' 16 years of age and the person is four or more years older than the complainant and the complainant and person are not married to each other.
It is very clear that there are no laws that directly criminalize any consensual non-coerced sexual conduct with any person the age of 16 or older unless certain mental issues are present (mental retardation). [8]
However...
When the alleged victim is 16 or older and less than 18 years of age, a charge of corruption of a minor may be made.
Corruption of minors. (a) Offense defined.-- (1) Whoever, being of the age of 18 years and upwards, by any act corrupts or tends to corrupt the morals of any minor less than 18 years of age, or who aids, abets, entices or encourages any such minor in the commission of any crime, or who knowingly assists or encourages such minor in violating his or her parole or any order of court, commits a misdemeanor of the first degree.
This charge typically is used only in plead agreements, but not in cases that actually led to a conviction. In the case cited, "coercion by authority" was in play, this was offered to avoid a rape charge. This insinuates that the commonwealth believes that premarital sex is a corruption of morals."

With exceptions in favor of both sides.
