      Ephebophilia is yearning for 15yo teens: a term to distinguish classes inside the larger class of pedophilia. Don’t ask why I know that.

      It’s about the kind of people who quickly defend being attracted to children as “not pedophilia” because they’re technically teens. Same kind of people who know age of consent in various countries.

          As funny as the joke is, it is also concerning that knowledge is still being used as a cudgel to judge people over.

          We really have to stop normalizing shitting on knowledge.

          … Though if they look like in OP, uh… that’s using more information than knowing words to judge someone, which is fine.

            Sadly, that’s what happens when we let conservatives and liberals muddy the waters. Knowledge gets tossed down the drain because some abusers want dignity - and where is the sense in that.

            The result of this muddy water is the indoctrination that one thing means several other things that are not remotely true. But, the thing is - these people are more accurately just straight up sex offenders. They are abusers where the victim is anything that moves no matter what age; child, teenager, adult are all victims.
