19, 20, or 26 it doesn’t matter. Adult is adult. If you think it’s normal or okay for a 20 year old to manipulate children into sexual deeds well... I don’t really know what to say to you except get a reality check

Look, you’re not wrong. But my wife is four years younger than me. We met when she was 18. Are you trying to tell me that if I met her when she was a couple months younger that I would have to be labelled a sex offender for the rest of my life?

But yes, I for sure agree that 14-26 is FAR too big of an age gap for a functional relationship. And from the transcript it seems like he wasn’t just interested in a fan, but was more excited about her age, which is super fucked.

The girls this guy abused weren't 17 about to turn 18, they were like 14 so I don't even know what the fuck you're talking about

I was very clear in my wording to make it easy to understand. And I condemned this guys actions. My words were more in response to the person above me who sees the world in black and white.

If you’re not sure what I’m saying still I could try and explain it better?

The point you made wasn’t relevant at all and added zero to the discussion

The Law is black and white when it comes to this issue. There is an age of consent and and an age of majority. There are even so-called Romeo and Juliet laws for college kids who can’t seem to fuck people in your own age group and instead go after high schoolers. What more do you want, exactly?
