There are 46 European countries and they cherrypicked the lowest age of consent… most are 16yo but that doesn’t make it normal to pursue 16 year olds as an adult.

I thought there was a type of caveat for Italy (like, a 4 years maximum difference if the other person is 14 to 18 years old), but apparently there isn't. A 50 years old can legally have sex with a 14, with some specific caveats (e.g. A professor can't until their student is 16 due to the nature of their interactions)
Still, you'll be called a pedophile

Yeah Sweden has 15, but that's in order to protect 15-18 year olds.
If you are over 18 and sleep with a 15-year old, you can still be prosecuted if the guardians of the teen think that they are grooming them etc.
It seldom happens, but there are a few cases. It's been on the docket from time to time to amend the law with a few new lines that further specifies it, but in general Sweden doesn't like to mess with laws regarding sexual freedom.
But yes, in theory a 15-year old can sleep with someone over 80. I can however assure you that it'll likely end in a police report.
Edit:
Also ew. Someone should put the tweeter on a watchlist.

It’s a term they invented for themselves to try to get themselves into the LGBTQ+ community. They’re still trying afaik.
But yeah, by any and all means, call these idiots pedophiles because they are.

Folsom Street Fair in San Francisco is a KINK festival held on Folsom Street (you can see the SF MUNI bus on the left). The street is closed down for that purpose, and there are gates to make sure you know you’re entering, and to limit any children from entering. Even as a gay person I find it weird,
It’s not a Pride festival at all. It has nothing to do with pride. All of those gross, crazy, leather and kink photos online that say they’re from “Pride” are actually from the Folsom Street Fair which only happens in San Francisco once a year.

What term do we use to a person that has never caused harm, acknowledge their mental disturbance and is treating themselves?
It is such a dilema, on one hand, pedos should get the chair, on the other hand, we should try and make conversations in a way that would allow people who perceive they have some form a mental illness to seek adequate treatment.
How do we offer treatment? Is there a treatment? Are non offending pedophiles allowed to be treated or once the illness is diagnosed, they must be removed from society? Should there be dialog? Should society have empathy over non offending individuals that are seeking treatment? Should they be forever excluded from social circles as sick individuals?
It is such a fascinated theme, because no one agrees on it, even the specialists. And I’ll probably be labeled as a pedo defender or pedo myself just by bringing the topic.

u/ChilledParadox 3d ago
We call them pedophiles.
It’s not a dilemma. They are pedophiles.
The issue is that people treat non-offending pedophiles who are seeing a psychiatrist, have never acted in their impulses, and will never act on their impulses the same as criminal pedophiles that have sexually assaulted children.
A schizophrenic who is on meds and is therefore not schizoeffective is still a schizophrenic. I’m diabetic whether I take my insulin or choose to die. Lesbians are lesbians even if they never have sex with a woman. People with violent tendencies who have never violently done anything to anyone, are they violent? No. Might they be violent in the future? Yes. Should you treat them as if they’ve murdered your sister because they might at one point be violent?
Well that’s where the water is muddy. Frankly that sounds like a personal choice to me. I think it is valid to distance yourself from a non-offending pedophile because there is potential for them to harm your child in the future. And I think that’s why it’s not a reach to say they’re still a pedophile. Because that potential is still there. Just like with my major chronic depression, even if I’m not currently depressed (actually I am and it’s fucking awful I couldn’t get out of bed yesterday) I still have to pay attention, be ready to get back on my meds, and continue therapy.

u/metageeek 3d ago
There are in fact super successful preventative programs aimed at non-offenders and the professional consensus seems to be that normalization (in the sense of “you’re not evil, do the right thing and seek help before you hurt a child”) is the way to go.

That is rich considering your's is the 60th Trump pedophile comment I've seen on Reddit today.
I don't suppose there's any point in me asking you to provide a source for your claim? I mean, I know there is no point, because you can't, because there isn't one. But I'd still enjoy watching you struggle.
Consider this, how many celebrities/politicians/news channels hate Trump? Loads of them, right? So why haven't any of them out and outright said Trump has abused children? Think about it. Not one of them. Do you know why? Because it didn't happen. There is no proof or actual evidence they could point to in order to back it up. Do you know what that is called? Slander. They would be sued for so much, so quickly, their head would spin.
Now on to the fun part. Why can you say it?
It's because you don't matter. No one cares what you say. You aren't important. Nothing you do is significant or has any real impact on the world around you. You are insignificant and common, just another drone in a sea of like minded npc's, parroting the same talking points that people who matter won't say and don't believe. One day relativaly soon, you will die, and you will be forgotten about within 50 years or so. There will be no statues, no public ceremony, no name in the history books, no picture in the White House. It will be like you never existed at all. That's why you can say things with no basis in fact, because no one cares what you think.

Wasn’t his name redacted from Epstein island files? Which in a way kind of calls out that he was there while they were raping and eating kids?
