They are divided into at least that many. For example, in my state, there are 4 Degrees (levels) of statutory rape laws, ranging from Unclassified felony (really bad) to class A misdemeanor (max year in jail much more often a fine)
If I gave the impression that I thought the 22 year old taking a 17 yearold home from a bar is JUST as bad as the allegations which lead to this discussion, I guess that's my mistake. But there is plenty of room for "not as bad, but still not ok."
