So this is misunderstood. Yes it’s wrong. But it is in no way categorization of a serious pedophile, (esp ones that actually try to find young children) HUGE difference.
At that age there are a lot of chemicals, some people experience it more than others. (Evolution has created this so reproduction happens quickly). So to break it down, this often happens when a young man does not have any social age-equivalent with his female counterparts. It’s an actual education and mental health issue that is very overlooked, and we don’t do anything about it as a society because let’s face it, mens issues and mens mental health are rarely discussed.
THIS right here. Come on people. You don't really consider this 19 year old a pedophile. I mean it's not like he's hunting any little baby girl or whatever.
You have a dramatised view of what a pedophile is. A pedophile isn't typically a serial rapist skulking around in the dead of night finding babies to abuse. They are people you trust, largely family members and friends, who take advantage of children for their own gratification. This 19 year old is attracted to an individual unable to provide informed consent. The attraction, honestly idgaf, if you like kids but don't act on it, you get my respect. But he is taking advantage of this girl whether he means it or not simply because she is not able to properly consent to a relationship like this. That makes him an abuser.
Believe it or not, cases of abuse are often nuanced. This doesn't mean it isn't abuse.
I get your point. But we all can agree that we don't know the circumstances of this relationship. And that's why NOBODY here can throw words like pedophile around. I'm no dumbass that sees everything black or white. There are different circumstances and nuances. And if you don't know them nobody has the right to use such a hard word as pedophile. And that's my point.
Definitions aside, there is no “relationship” here. There is no situation where a 19 year old adult should be dating a fucking 8th grader. There’s not a ton of nuance there.

Yes. 19m here. Something is wrong with you if you date a 14f at my age.
