Is PinkNews Pro Pedophilia?

Why do they think this is OK? The kid was 16 when they met and 17 when they started dating. The older dude was 49.

They deleted the tweet, but when I went to search for the outrage, I found a LOT of accounts with literally zero followers calling this "pedophilia" because alt-right piece of shit Mark Dice called it "pedophilia."

He also heavily implied the kid was 10 when the relationship was started, but he wasn't, obviously. If you look at this guy it's kind of hard to believe he's 23 now (which would have made him 17 at the time this started, and legal). He's a ho, and I think he's a ho who is lying about his age.

by Anonymousreply 15August 15, 2019 5:04 PM

I've watched their videos on Youtube. It's very cringey at first, but the kid has a pretty good head on his shoulders and he addresses the hate and disgust many times. He's fully aware of how pedo it all looks. He interviews his older brother who's straight and hot, and the brother is okay with their relationship and is very pro gay and very loving to his queeny bro.

When I was 17 I had a sexual relationship with a guy in his 30's. I was fully aware that the guy was a total pedo, but I loved the sex and he was HOT.

But the kid was the aggressor in the pursuit. As was I when i was 17 almost 18. I know it looks gross from the outside, i totally get it. But a sexually mature 17 year old knows what he wants. He's not some innocent flower the just get plucked by the big bad horny man.

I'm not saying it's right and I'm not saying it's wrong, but many of us lost our virginity to someone who was older. At some point after 2000, we just started calling these types of relationships pedo and that isn't right or fair. To be quite honest I'm not really sure what a 40 year old has in common with an 18 year old other than sex, but whatever works. A 16/17/18 year old is not a child.

I'm 40 and in Canada and I fucked a 16 year old, legally, last year. He had a great little ass and pretty much begged for it. Definitely not pedophilia, sorry, haters and jealous bitches.

Some of you people need to loosen your corset stays and take a deep breath.

Doing it with a 17 year old may deeply unwise, but it's not pedophilia. Perhaps you folks have it backwards and this is a simple matter of the 17 year old being an enthusiastic gerontophile. Did you ever stop to think about that???

R12: Good point. That explains the identical Fionna Barret or whatever the hell her name is threads within 24 hours that I had to slap down. It also explains the pizzagater who started that Bill Clinton portrait thread this morning. These people are sick obsessives.

As to this couple, this was discussed here on DL last week. The age of consent in Brazil is 16 or 15, so the relationship was legal from the start. Additionally, this is not pedophilia whatsoever. Pedophiles are attracted to pre-pubescent children. At worst, this is pederasty, which depending on the laws in your jurisdiction, may very well be perfectly legal. So stop clutching your pearls, marys.

A 49-year-old should know how to say no.

Can you imagine, for example, a 49-year-old colleague announcing that he had to leave work early to pick up his boyfriend/girlfriend from high school? The reaction he'd get is exactly the sort of reaction such a relationship deserves.

For fuck's sake! I find the pedo accusations really tiresome, especially on a gay board. Many of us have had to listen to those accusations being tossed about by ignorant people. When I was 17, I had already graduated high school, bought a car, and worked two jobs. I entered puberty early, and had a deep voice, and a full beard (which I kept shaved). I managed to get two different men (in their 30s) to finally have sex with me, and I practically had to beg them. Most of the guys I approached (I knew what I wanted) wouldn't get involved with someone my age. And, for the record, the only younger man I've ever been with is only 6 months younger. And we're still very close. I think a huge age difference is off-putting, to be honest. But the pedo accusations are going too far.

by Anonymousreply 35August 15, 2019 7:00 PM

I have hypocritical bias toward it being more acceptable for an age 17 boy to be with men sexually vs a girl. males are wired for sex, females are wired for emotional attachment. I feel bad admitting it, but testosterone is to blame!

by Anonymousreply 36August 15, 2019 7:13 PM

I am not advocating pedophilia but the 18 marker to determine pedophilia is completely arbitrary. In then US it's 18 but in other parts of the world it's 16, 14 or whatever. If you find it disgusting that an 18 y.o. is mating with a 49 y.o., that's your pregorrative, but it's not illegal and the so-called amorality of it is questionable at best. In the U.S. an 18 y.o. can drive, vote and purchase guns, but shouldn't be having sex with whoever s/he wants?

by Anonymousreply 37August 15, 2019 7:16 PM

So much ignorance in this thread.

18 is the age of majority in the U.S. It has nothing to do with pedophilia.

In the 1970s, Anita Bryant famously campaigned to 'SAVE OUR CHILDREN FROM HOMOSEXUALS.' In response to Anita, various conservative controlled state governments started moving the age of consent higher than it had ever been before. The Supreme Court ruled that the state could exercise this control over minors and it was permissible for states to move the age of consent all the way to 18, if they so choose. And more of them did.

So, if you're espousing this "18 year old" standard, you are the god children of Anita Bryant, the religious right and a conservative Supreme Court. I hope you're happy. But it is a recent perversion of history and logic and fact.

by Anonymousreply 40August 15, 2019 7:41 PM

When you look at science and evolution, the human animal is expected to start having sex at puberty. 12 or 13. Primates, (closest to humans), become impregnated as soon as a female begins ovulating (which is around age 9). So technically we should be fucking when we enter puberty! So, you're right R37 the number is arbitrary.

I, myself, was highly sexually active between ages 10 and 17. Only with boys (a couple men). I was doing what evolution intended, but with the wrong gender. (Oops. Didn't get the memo!)

But OP and the rest of the pearl-clutching moral majority types on this thread have been saying it was pedophilia. It's not, and it wasn't even illegal.

You're claiming it's pedophilia because you're trying to attack PinkNews, either because you're a rightwing nutjob or an anti-trans troll. Those are the ones shrieking in anger about this on Twitter, and they're obviously over here, too.

This is all propaganda bullshit. If you want to rend your garments over how disgusting a relationship with this age difference is, then do so directly with a thread about the couple instead of this "LGBTQ websites are pro pedophilia" nonsense.

Not to bump a mostly dead thread, but R49, they've had an active YouTube channel and social media for a while. The younger guy really is a ho, he sells himself by saying he's a "private snapchat entertainer." He's been doing that for a few years now.

That's why I suspect this was taken down in the first place, because they realized he wasn't being interviewed, he was advertising. And I'd bet anything Kayleb isn't as young as he says he is. He's got a vested, monetary interest in pretending to be younger.

But of course it was all unsettling. The kid's parents were going to get the authorities involved.

I've done both -- my first guy was 25, I was 16. It was great but he took a lot of shit for it and it ended the relationship. When I was 23, I had a 17 year old FB. He was such a little hottie, I still wank to him sometimes, like 20 years later. People rolled their eyes but let it go, I guess that age difference was tolerable, but 25/16 wasn't.

by Anonymousreply 65August 21, 2019 11:57 PM

The point is, R65, that notions of what constitutes an adult are largely arbitrary. 100 years ago, we obviously had very different ideas about when a person reached adulthood. Even 40-50 years ago, our ideas were different.

Pedophilia is a word with a very specific meaning. Ascribing it, for instance, to a 40-year old who has sexual feelings for a 17-year old muddies the waters and starts to render the term meaningless. Meanwhile, there are people out there who actually are pedophiles and throwing the word around too loosely causes problems for their victims.

A 17-year old is not a helpless child with no agency. He or she may not necessarily have the maturity he or she will (hopefully) develop by 27, but in most ways, he or she is an adult.

by Anonymousreply 66August 22, 2019 12:29 AM

You're just plain wrong, R66. There was NEVER a time in American society when a girl marrying at 13-- or even 15-- was anywhere NEAR the norm, and the age for men was of course even higher. Please see the stats at link.

R56 "I know it is not pedo, but it is unbalanced."

You know what else is unbalanced? Just about every relationship on Earth. It's not age that determines the balance, it's the relationship between the two people. Now, these two don't look like an example of sanity, that's for sure, but I know plenty of relationships that seem "unbalanced" from the outside and yet they provide each other with love, companionship, support, affection, sex, fun and what have you.

Don't forget who you are and what was once said about you, ladies!

R20 is a creep too. Some of these posters were advocating on the NAMBLA thread as well. To have no sympathy for the minors involved is really regrettable. To suggest they "get what they derserve", or "know why they're there" is just sickening to read. They're only objectified as sexual objects, clearly no respect for their well-being. One is an adult, the other CLEARLY is not. Many of Bryan Singer's victims were duped, drugged, given alcohol underage, etc. I would hate to see what other ethical or moral quandaries these types rationalise.
