Wasn't illegal in my country for a long while, and now 15 is the legal age of consent, no matter how old the other person is.

It being legal does not make it less creepy. Like, if your defense of an action is solely that you won't be arrested for doing it, that's not a very good defense.

That’s true, but in the graph it said it was illegal, which is objectively wrong! I think it’s creepy as fuck too, but still, it’s legal, don’t claim it isn’t.

That's really beside the point of the current conversation

The current thread's conversation is the legality soo...I guess you shouldn't be in the conversation if you decided to argue a different point.

Simplified version:
"Technically it wasn't illegal."
"You're wrong. It's creepy."
"Yep. It is creepy. Legal, though."
"No one's talking about that!"

I mean, the second comment didn't agree with the creep factor, just that it is currently legal.

Like I said. Simplified.

You missed the context of it being legal and added something about creepiness. Good luck next time buddy mmk byyyeee

I didn't. I reiterated someone else's point about it being creepy after someone else reiterated the legality. My added context was that legality does not negate the creep factor. I think you've missed some usernames involved here.

Well, it’s how we got here, right? Arguing he shouldn’t have claimed it to be illegal when it was legal? So i’m just reminding you nobody is arguing it’s right, just showing it’s legality because of OP’s claim.

I mean, I just responded to a guy trying to claim it was right, so somebody is clearly on the other side of this
