Best Answer

In the context of sex between, for example, one person above and another person below the age of consent, knowingly would mean: Either - [on the part of the older person] knowing that the other person is below the age of consent Or - [on the part of the older person] having reason to think that the other person may be below the age of consent Much will depend on the actual ages of the persons involved, the difference in age and the jurisdiction (the legal sytem in the place where the act takes place). However, don't rely on saying, 'But she looked older'.
