These are the people who joke about jailbait and being attracted to minors

Source : was a minor

Ok im going to actually be less coy.

I was "jailbait" I grew up with men joking about it. Called me it. I had men stop me on the street offering rides and other empty dangerous promises. Watching your uncle start to look at you differently, the pictures he takes of you are just a little more uncomfortable. Your dad's friends make jokes you do or don't understand but they make you so uncomfortable you laugh along because anything else feels scarier.

So actually THAT was my source. And it didn't stop after I was I minor. It stopped once I got fat.
