How much would you bet that there is no "trafficking" ring at all? What are the odds that there aren't even any children in this story? How likely is it that there were some cops on-line pretending to be teenagers, tricking some lonely men into typing "Yeah, I'd like to see your nude selfies."?

The idea that a 18 year old can handle decisions like joining the army or starting a family,
but can't be allowed to do dangerous things like drink a beer or have sex with a MILF
is stupid beyond belief.

Jerry Falwell and #MeToo agree that men who want sex are evil.
When Christian Fundamentalist Conservatives and Radical Feminists agree, people who still have some common sense need to stick together and fight for sanity.

I live in a country that had a MASSIVE HYSTERICAL MELTDOWN over a 1/2 second glimpse of one of Janet Jackson's boobs.
Americans wig out over the slightest sexual "danger".
THAT is fucking weirdo behavior.
-
Let's say, just for fun, that I sexualized a shoe yesterday.
How would you know that I did it? How would I know that I did it? Would the shoe be different afterwards? Would I be different afterwards?
Is this "sexualize" thing really a useful concept?

A: 16 year olds can't consent, so it's rape.
B: I had sex when I was 16 and it wasn't rape.
A: Yeah, there are Romeo and Juliet laws.
B: So 16 year olds can consent.
A: Oh, fuck.

this is a real serial rapist, violent offender, and danger to society.
sadly the dominant narratives of the last 10 years conflate truly evil fuckers like Andrew Tate, with regular harmless folks who have a sex partner a few years older or younger than them.

So this guy hired sex workers. Some of whom were under 18. Nowhere do we find info about their precise ages. The prostitutes were not identified or interviewed. They did not testify or give depositions. It's literally impossible to judge if any harm was done to anyone. But sex-phobic hysteria demands that we scream about the bogey man, the all pervasive but undefined, undefinable, and essentially meaningless term "trafficking"
-
Some people will tell you that teens are too stupid to choose their own girlfriend or boyfriend.
Don't believe them.

The Ancient Greeks ate apples, and why that matters

Soledad O'Brien praised a company for firing a man for being creepy. OK.
So to be fair all people who seem creepy should be fired from all jobs, right?
What is the objective criteria for creepiness that shows the line between odd behavior and fire-able "creepiness"?
-
Our society utterly fails to prepare girls for becoming women. We are in deep denial. We don't talk about these things. Then everyone feels incredible shame about normal healthy development. It's pure dysfunction. How can we be so fucking bad at this?
-
"power dynamics" is 100% bullshit and getting all neurotic about it has made the youngs miserable AF.
They're lonelier and having less sex than any previous generation.
-
a 20-year-old can't be a stripper in Texas because she is "underage"
but if you wanna drive a car in Texas at 16 you're not underage
we ought to stop pretending the term "underage" actually means something
-
There has been a huge shift in the way we talk about, and probably think about sex.
We should consider the ramifications of this change. We should consciously decide if the new way of thinking is better or worse.

Brain study is a cute hobby, but it's about as useful as collecting stamps. We have written records of thousands of years of young adults aged 14-18 doing just fine anytime they were given the chance.

Sex crime can't possibly happen if we just make sure than nobody ever thinks of teenagers as men and women.
They have boobs and beards and hips and deep voices, but they're children. Sure.

Did anyone see the news from Vienna, where six teenagers committed long term sexual abuse of a 29 year old woman?
Teens are not children. They are not innocent. They are not only victims. They are also perpetrators. Americans putting themselves into a mindset where teenagers are mentally only little kids is so wrong on so many levels and creates a myriad of problems. Our laws need to take reality into account. Otherwise we're gonna keep seeing all sorts of bizarre injustices.

A Very Brief History
-
Listen to victims.
Most people know the story of Polanski's crime. So they can just skip the first 15 minutes.
The last 20 minutes however are really important unfiltered views of the victim. It's a perspective rarely heard and extremely important.

I understand the Dems' desire to sling mud at this guy.
He's probably a dirtbag. Most politicians are.
but EVEN SO we need to be honest with ourselves.
Teenagers are not children. The woman here is 16-years-old. Young women are not harmed by having sex. but worse than that, nobody even had sex. It is completely absurd to believe that saying "Hey, wanna have sex?" is a heinous crime.
We have to stop this hyperbolic fear-mongering bullshit.

If it's lawnmowers, guns, or microwave ovens people who get them need to learn to use them safely.
It's no different with bodies that can get pregnant or catch STDs.
-
It's disturbing that in our society that EVERYBODY is ALWAYS accusing all their enemies of pedophilia, but NOBODY has even bothered to take 5 minutes to learn what the word means.
-
When I was 17 my boyfriend was 23.
So assholes like Phil Mitchell think they have the right to tell me I am a victim of child rape.
Well, Phil, fuck off.
-
So if someone asks, or you're about to ask "Are you okay with X or Y?"
figure out if the question means
"do you think X is gross?"
or "do you think X is harmful?"
is the question about the emotional or about the rational?
-
minor =/= child
puberty ends your childhood between 9 and 13 years of age.
laws decide when you stop being a minor.
There is no relationship between these two things.

Child beauty pageants don't make anyone pedophilic. Just like gay porn doesn't turn straight men into homosexuals.

When I was 17 my boyfriend was 23 and everything was fine.
It is shocking AF that today he could, in some states, get prison time for making love to me.
-
Portugal and Germany set their age of consent at 14.
Young adults 14+ have their bodily autonomy respected there.
When consenting adults, 16 years old, living in Chicago, become sex offenders because of terrible laws something is very wrong

When this show aired in the 80s we said this woman was sexy.
Today we say she's "sexualized"
The meaning is the same, except that now it's a weird immoral thing that has been done to her, not a beautiful natural trait.
-
"Normal people are attracted to people who are roughly age appropriate" is true for many, probably most women. We tend to like our own age +5
Men however are most often attracted to puberty plus +5
and that does not change. Men don't start looking at different porn as they grow older. Senior citizens and teens watch the same erotic vids.
