Couple of things I think defenders of this need to recognize. Mainly that, 4 years doesn’t seem like a lot but within the first 20 years for your life it definitely is. If you are 15, 4 years age difference is 1/4th of your entire existence on this planet and the amount of mental and physical development that will happen in the next 4 years is drastic. Now if you are 24 and she/he is 20? Or 24 and 28? Etc? Not a very big deal because by 20 or so you have quite a bit more understanding of the world and yourself and 4 years is less and less of a fraction of your experience on earth. But 15? Nah. The younger you are the more drastic a few years difference is to your development and personal experience. Idk if I’d call a kiss like this, at this age range, should be considered definitive pedophilia, but I definitely don’t think it’s ok. Especially because that boy’s 200% hormones and his brain is basically lizard mode. He’s not thinking about anything but sex and definitely not capable of rational thought.
Edit:
I also want to clarify I really don’t think any comments on this post (Lemmygrad) are actively defending the act. One person seems to be debating if it’s an act of pedophilia or not. I’m not getting into that debate.
I also want to point out…I mean,this is from reddit. Are we surprised?
I’m legitimately appalled. This is exactly what I’m trying to say, even few years can make a difference at that age, plus consent. No one would care if both are 20+.
I can definitely confirm that everyone would be instantly jumping if the adult was male since female pedos frequently get a pass for some reason.
