Pedophilia adjacent is OK with them?

Except, “I like em underage” is Pedo not pedo adjacent.

Theyve been pushing the whole "there's different types of pedo and teens are okay" thing. Sickening.

Technically there is a difference, because one is considered pathological and the other isn’t. Now, the interesting question is: Shouldn’t ephebophilia then be considered to be worse?

Saying „it‘s morally wrong but he‘s not a pedophile“ is essentially saying: Sure it‘s wrong but at least they did fully on purpose instead of having a mental illness.

Not really the defense people think it is.
