Because nobody is upset that he found her attractive.

You should absolutely read the rest of this thread because someone outright said that I deviate from the norm by finding some of them attractive, and even tried to equate being attracted to them to having the desire to murder.

But that being said, as I already very clearly and explicitly said, I agree laws should be in place to protect minors from predators. I'm also fine with it being based on age.

It's just that you are, on one hand, saying legality and morality are not the same (correctly, imo) but then arguing with me that it's morally bad in many cases so we need to have a clear law (which I also agree with), which makes what he did immoral. Maybe they were emotionally and intellectually compatible. I don't know, as I don't know either of them, and everyone close to it has said it was a good relationship. Who am I to say it was bad?
