on one hand, it’s hella bad and wrong for many reasons
on the other hand, it can quickly devolve into infantilizing young adults because obviously some old cooter in the congress knows better than them whether they consent or not, so regulating this is hella shaky
God this site cannot keep its goddamn pants on when it comes to the age kink can it?
They can get weird about sex workers too, although at least they wont ban you for calling sex buyers rapists here like Deprogram and other leftist subs. Lemmygrad still best grad
:epstein: up in here lol
He’s an actual groomer, he grooms young women into having sex with him and dumps them before they turn 25. It’s not as bad a pedophilia but he’s getting there.
Yeah wtf is going on with people, yes it’s mere legality doesn’t mean it’s actually totally fine. I think people feel bad because they mightve dated an older person once - which is fine! We all have done dumb shit!
Also, the people imagining themselves dating 18 year olds when they’re 50 is gross and I’m not sorry about it. But that doesn’t mean they can’t do what they do, they just also have to accept that there are people that will think they’re gross for serially dating 18 years. Take your lumps.
The line has to be drawn somewhere because the only alternative Ive seen is sex liscencing and that has eugenics issues.
18 seems like a reasonable place to draw it, though based on my experience talking to young people Id personally put it at 19.
yes it’s very creepy. He is not only old enough to be their dad he is old enough to be reasonably likely to be older than their dad
It’s more than a little weird and creepy and can easily be predatory. I liked dating older men as a teen early 20s cus homeless prostitute and gold digging oldies got me abused less. I didnt really think anything of it until one of the dudes got this dumb happy look on his face and asked if I knew what day it was. It was Father’s Day and he was elated that people might think we were father daughter. Looking back I looked like 12 and most of these dudes were pedos idk (I remember one getting angry as shit that I had pubes)
But yea power dynamic and adults are still kinda children until their ~mid 20s. I dont find an issue with a 30something and a 50something or older tho, I just dont really consider a 23 yr old an adult (and taking some university classes recently really reinforced that for me, like ffs these “adults” act like they’re still in middle school and looking back I acted similarly)
