If both are underage, still considered rape. The guy will be charged for statutory rape, and will most probably be sent to a Boy's Home, or something like that, I suppose...
As for the female, I'm not sure...
Normally no mention of the female...
under Penal Code chapter 244 section 375:
a rape is said to have happen
____________________________________________________
A man is said to commit “rape” who, except in the case hereinafter excepted, has sexual intercourse with a woman under circumstances falling under any of the 5 following descriptions:
(a) against her will;
(b) without her consent;
(c) with her consent, when her consent has been obtained by putting her in fear of death or hurt;
(d) with her consent, when the man knows that he is not her husband, and her consent is given because she believes that he is another man to whom she is or believes herself to be lawfully married or to whom she would consent;
(e) with or without her consent, when she is under 14 years of age.
____________________________________________________
and the punishment is :
376. —(1) Subject to subsection (2), whoever commits rape shall be punished with imprisonment for a term which may extend to 20 years, and shall also be liable to fine or to caning.
2) Whoever, in order to commit or to facilitate the commission of an offence of rape against any woman —
(a) voluntarily causes hurt to her or to any other person; or
(b) puts her in fear of death or hurt to herself or any other person,
and whoever commits rape by having sexual intercourse with a woman under 14 years of age without her consent, shall be punished with imprisonment for a term of not less than 8 years and not more than 20 years and shall also be punished with caning with not less than 12 strokes.
