--- Quote from: Foxscotch on January 19, 2023, 08:24:04 PM ---18-19 years olds should not be dating 13-14 year olds. just because it happens, it's legal, and it's sometimes even considered to be normal, doesn't mean that it is good or healthy

yo i think your math is a little off

--- Quote from: Goth77 on January 19, 2023, 08:01:12 PM ---What I do know is that 2011 was my junior year of highschool, and I knew seniors 18 or 19 years of age that were dating freshman that were 2 or 3 years younger than them. It's more common than you might think in that aspect

18 - 2 = 16 and 19 - 3 = 16.

16 is the age of consent in most states - where are you coming up with the age 13 from anything that I said? talking about highschool not middleschool bro

What I do know is that 2011 was my junior year of highschool, and I knew seniors 18 or 19 years of age that were dating freshman that were 2 or 3 years younger than them. It's more common than you might think in that aspect. Digging up dirt on someone from a post that was 12 years ago doesn't exactly do much justice - 12 years is a lot of time for someone to change their entire personality. Within that time their entire outlook on life could change.

Bisjac is definitely older than you by more than a year. And the existence of Romeo Law romances does not invalidate the creepiness.

Also once again, there's seventeen galaxies between cancelling someone for 10 year old posts, having them lose their job, and us remembering how much of a creep a forumer was. This place gets like 20 eyeballs and the feds are (probably) not a pair of them. And hey, if Bisjac wasn't all talk and did have victims, I hope that he does see the inside of a jail-cell

--- Quote from: Foxscotch on January 19, 2023, 08:24:04 PM ---I think at 14 years of age it's rare to even recognize the issue with that. cus like at 14 ur moral framework is not really that evolved. and as a 14 year old you do feel attraction to adults, which just makes it harder to realize that it's not right for it to go in the other direction. you believe that you can consent to a relationship like that, so why wouldn't that belief extend to someone else your age? at least this was my experience at the time, and I am very fortunate that my not-so-responsible interactions with adults (or older teenagers) didn't end up with me getting hurt. I think the only way to address this is to teach kids about love and how to approach it safely earlier in life. my first love ed class was in the 10th grade, where they showed us shock images of STI symptoms and told us to practice abstinence. that's not useful loveual education, first of all, and it was far too late. reactionaries start foaming at the mouth as soon as you suggest it, but the fact of the matter is, you can't keep people safe from dangers they don't understand18-19 years olds should not be dating 13-14 year olds. just because it happens, it's legal, and it's sometimes even considered to be normal, doesn't mean that it is good or healthy

Yeah I had the same experience, however I grew up in super liberal, where there was way more progressive love education, and even still I still knew girls who dated older dudes and vice versa. It's crazy how pervasive it is.

oh no that's what I was getting at, Goth77 is 29 (according to his profile) which means he would've been 18 when that was posted, and Bisjac would be 24-25

ok drop the 13. keeping the 14 though. freshmen are often 14, and even if they weren't, 18 and 19 year olds shouldn't be dating 15 and 16 year olds either. there is too much of a difference in emotional and physical development. would you trust a 19 year old boy with your 16 year old daughter?
--- Quote from: Goth77 on January 19, 2023, 09:08:33 PM ---16 is the age of consent in most states

--- End quote ---
age of consent is simply irrelevant. idc about the law. we're not talking about the law, which is wrong so often that the key difference between systems of governance is the way laws are changed. we're talking about what's healthy and safe for kids
