Even if he was trolling, people are defending/agreeing with him in the comment section…

I see more and more people saying this type of things, feels like the interview with Bannon has done a lot of damage.

Many older men do find 17-yo's attractive physically. But they know that personality-wise they just wouldn't be compatible at all, and also that it wouldn't be good for the 17-yo to be involved, and that in itself is a turnoff. Its power seeking and sociopathic men of all ages that are the problem.

Even if all this was true and none of the girls were underage, we still have substantial evidence of rape, abuse, and trafficking.

Romeo and Juliet were, like 14 or 15, so I don't know what the fuckin' issue is.
Plus, Sherlock Holmes did opium! People today are uptight woke douchenozzles!

Yeah I don’t get them… my great great great grandfather was 70 when he married my great great great grandmother who was 9! We can’t do anything anymore…

Juliet was thirteen in the play, which was shocking to people at the time.

I heard about some disturbing research on the internet. So this is probably fake, but I was not bothered enough to confirm it. It says when men on anonymous questionnaire chose the most attractive females with their age attached to the photos, they on average chose females aged 21yo.

However when in the same research they removed age labels the same men chose 15 year olds to be the most attractive.

Which is very disturbing if true. And I assume this to be true that there is a dark secret we men have if we are not civilized. And I think the evidence confirms this when you check powerful men with no moral compass - they do confirm it.

However this, while being very disturbing, also shows most of men have moral compass. Men do not act on this and are mostly discussed by that idea when knowing the age.

So I agree with youtube comments there might be a (repressed/subconscious/...) physical attraction to female bodies of lower age. But I do not agree with their conclusion. That it is in any way ok and normal to act on this. The mentioned research shows this exists but also that this is very not ok to act on or even admit this exists.

If anyone is bothered enough I would also like to know if this research is true. :)

Have you checked? I have not.

I can share the link in private if you want but I’m not sure it’s a great idea to share their usernames like that.

Thank God he didn't do any satanic rituals. Funny enough the only thing they are allowed to write out.

[-] BoosBeau@lemmy.world 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

I can't find a ritual that works! Out here on the hustle, everyday, drawing stars with chalk using nothing but the clappable cheeks great satana gave me, chanting until my throat is hoarse, and going full wacky waving inflatable tube man. Just an honest person over here trying to bring about the downfall of humanity and I can't catch a break...

It doesn't matter whatsoever whether Epstein was actually a pedophile or not. It matters solely whether he engaged in pedocriminality - which he did.

[-] KairuByte@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 2 weeks ago

/sigh I guess I’ll be that guy. Physical attraction isn’t something that can be helped. You can’t see a person and inherently know their age, and base your attraction on that known age. That just not how things work.

What matters is what you do with that attraction. Do you pursue someone who is 17, or do you immediately back off? Because as a society we have determined that 18 is the acceptable mental cutoff. Anything lower than that is a crime.

I find it disturbing if you are my age (over 40) and you are consistently attracted to teenagers and 20 year olds. Honestly, everyone under 25 has started to look to me the way teenagers started looking in my thirties: like kids.

Not that I will necessarily think of you or treat you as one intellectually. But they just are flagged with "young" in my head and don't really grab my attention.

Late 20s, they start to look adult to me again. Anywhere from there to about mid 50s look really attractive to me.

Am I alone in this? 

[-] kutt@lemmy.world 3 points 2 weeks ago

Nope that’s totally normal most of us are like this.

Actually pedos are a very small minority, and as someone else said here, you don’t necessarily need to be a pedo to be involved in pedocriminality. Lots of people just do it because they’re bored and are powerful enough to not face consequences
