I think it's definitely wrong across the board. I honestly think 40 year olds dating 20 year olds is weird and I'm going to think differently of that 40 year old, but the laws have drawn this arbitrary line at 18, and so here we are.

It's all fucked up, but sexually assaulting a literal child versus sexually assaulting via coercion a 15 year old feels like a distinction worth making. You can be Lost Prophets pedophile or Brand New pedophile, they are vastly different degrees of awful, despite both being awful.

Unfortunately, people really hate nuance when it comes to this topic.

Just about any topic, really. I dunno, maybe they're right too, and maybe my desire to define is totally unnecessary.
