We were just talking about this over at the Spam forum.

The age of consent in Washington state (i.e. Seattle where iCarly takes place) is actually sixteen, so there would be nothing to prevent Sam and Spencer dating even now.

However, even if the age of consent were eighteen there, that only applies to sexual activity. Sam and Spencer could date each other as long as no nookie took place. Otherwise, all those wonderful Spammy moments we squee about in the Relationship Moments on the Spam page would, technically, be illegal behavior.

But yeah, you're right that if Sam and Spencer were the same age, there'd be no question who she'd be with. And that's, ultimately, the reason I ended up shipping Spam.
