We should learn to ask people:
"Do you admit that it's a #taboo?"
"Do you admit that no #RationalDiscussion of it is permitted?"
"Are you okay with the fact that none of these ideas have any #logical basis?"

There is a group of men who are sexually attracted to 10 year olds but not 15 year olds.
Pedophilia is real.
There are no men who are sexually attracted to 16 year olds but not 20 year olds.
Ephebophilia doesn't exist.
Adult-child sex will never be legal anywhere in the world. Anyone writing scary stories about bad people trying to "normalize" pedophilia are yanking your chain. It's all hysteria. Don't fall for it.
The Wetterling case is so important precisely because it shows us exactly what *not* to do. a rare crime was committed and totally incompetent police botched everything. none of the changes implemented afterwards fixed *any* of the real problems.
...from MRI scans that made everyone think that under 25s are idiots... have NO CONNECTION to behavior at all. Brain science knows about 1000% less than people think it does.
Nope. Most people throw around a lot of words that they don't ever examine. They build arguments based on fuzzy or nonsense definitions of words, which shows that they have never scrutinized the concepts they're basing their conclusions on.
Sentences like "We took pictures of brains and noticed some changes and that means that 22 year olds cannot consent to sex" are very popular, but complete idiocy.
Prohibition of minors seeing nudity has the perverse effect of making it forbidden fruit.
Seeing a naked lady becomes a kind of holy grail to boys.
Enforcement then has to be amped up & it becomes a ridiculous vicious cycle going nowhere for no purpose.
Gens Y and Z are much better on racism and sexism. They are great about fighting homo-phobia, fat-phobia, and body-shaming. but they absolutely abhor teenagers. They are incredible vile bigots toward anyone younger than them.
It's amazing to me that people are SO EAGER to forget about the MAJORITY (60%) of teen pregnancies without the age gap. WTF? and WE KNOW how to prevent unplanned pregnancies. So let's stop this useless moralizing bullshit and prevent ALL unplanned pregnancies.

But they can get long prison sentences for taking a photo of their own body. In many states they can get arrested, jailed, tried, and put on the sex offender registry just for making love with a partner their own age.
The idea that we can keep repeating "You're just a child. You're not ready. Your brain is deficient." while they are literally living in an adult body with adult hormones and adult sex drive is just as terrible, if not worse than, abstinence only bullshit.
Remember that "teen" is not a biological category, while sexual attraction is entirely biological. "teen" is just a linguistic quirk which reflects a thing in our mathematical system, which is, by sheer coincidence, based on the number 10.
So a mental patient can carry a loaded AR-15 around the parking lot of a crowded Walmart but people go to prison for making love with their partners. Total gun freedom while your sex life is in totalitarian dictatorship.
funny how people always say "believe victims" until the victim says something that doesn't fit their bullshit ideology. Then it's just "fuck victims. they know nothing. I know what they experienced much better than they do"
