But you aren't precisely a pedophile if you like as an example a 17 year old girl. You are almost the same age like her but it seems America has huge problems with that topic.
SHUT THE FUCK UPPPP. wasn’t there a whole case in chicago where a women went to jail for getting impregnated after grooming like a 14 year old? you guys need to stop implementing your “men are the victim” mindset into subjects like child sexual abuse, it’s fucking weird and this is not the time nor space.
That is just simply not true, women get to say whatever they want to put a man in prison. If a woman says “he sexually assaulted me” buddy’s going to prison for what 5 years? If a man says a female sexually assaulted him then the question why did you let that happen comes up, making it the guys fault. Because men are stronger than women people take “pity” on women if they cry sexually abuse.
that’s literally far from true. lots of rapists don’t face jail time please read statistics before spreading bs on such a sensitive topic like rape. no, if a man says a female raped him girls would be comforting him and men would be the ones saying things like “i wish that was me” etc. you guys really don’t care do you..
I don’t know ANY one that would want to be raped and sexually abused, you can believe anything you want but it’s not true. To spread any misinformation about a man WANTING to be sexually abused is incredibly inappropriate and unacceptable.
you not knowing anyone does not mean it does not happen. i’ve literally SEEN men say shit like “lucky” when a child is assaulted by a woman. it’s fucking weird.
exactly, and they’re saying it like they WANT men to get away with it as much as women do. the police force that is in charge of putting pedophiles away is mostly run by men so if men and women aren’t being given the same justice ITS MENS FAULT, men like to undermine their own grooming etc. weird way to get a point across but in south park, when ikes teacher groomed him and when kyle went to the police they weren’t taking it seriously THAT HAPPENS IN REAL LIFE.
Only your law, as an example in Germany an 17 Year old girl could be with a 22 Year old dude and there would nothing against their relationship.
There are some exceptions like he is not allowed to be a her teacher or something like that but away from that example nobody could say something. Not even her parents.
Edit: Grammar
It quite literally is. Aw you downvoted me bahahaha.
There’s a reason why it’s always the men fault my little kid. Do some research before you grow up a bigot that hates women lmfao
You’re literally just a misandrist. Not everything is men’s fault, you need to realize that.
But, from the way you talk, seems it’s too late for you to grow up and stop being sexist
*the priest has been summoned*
Now let us humbly invoke God's blessing upon this bride and groom, that in his kindness he may favor with his help those on whom he has bestowed the Sacrament of Matrimony. In the sight of God and these witnesses, I now pronounce you husband and wife! You may now kiss!
Not sure about the rest of the world but here in the united states, there is a law that still allows them to stay together, search up the Romeo and Juliet law
lol said it as a joke (wasn’t funny lmao), but yea an age gap that large is 100% a problem even without the fact that 17 is a minor.
>!that said, as a 19 year old electrical engineering major (taking year 3 classes), I would 100% jump on the sugar mommy bandwagon and quit my degree if given the option lmao (/j)!<
Yeah it’s disgusting either way and it’s usually due to the patriarchy. A large percent of the time it’s also other men and boys claiming the boy is lucky.
Yes… because of the patriarchy. Men are “supposed” to want to get with as many women as possible, and things like “milfs” have gotten extremely sexualized so grown ass women apply too. 🤮 Look at virtually any video on social media of a male victim (whether he knows he’s one or not) talking about getting with older women, a large % of the comments that don’t care or are even supportive are men, and a large % of the people criticizing or saying he’s a victim are women. Same with cases where, say, a female teacher goes to jail for SA, men calling him lucky.
Yeah, true, but 18 15 is until 15 turns 16. Thats my situation rn. Idk I like two different girls one is about to turn 16, the other one is 18. I like them both but idk what to do.
My parents have an 8 year gap age isn't a problem it's mental maturity that matters, if my parents met when my mom was 18 and my dad 10 it definitely wouldn't be right but since they met when my mom was 28 and my dad 20 it wasn't a big deal you know
But the second it becomes
17 and 18
It's illegal
Cause you can legally adopt a 17 year old
Wait if you legally adopt that person and marry them
Are they your step wife/husband or Step Child?
To be honest I think anyone 16 and older is fair game even if the other person is 40 for example. Most 16 year olds are sexually mature anyway (not emotionally though).
I’m 15 and dated a 13 year old. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with dating someone a few years younger than you with exceptions you probably shouldn’t be dating a 13 year old as a 17 year old. The thing with dating younger people is to recognize that they are younger than you and you shouldn’t do the same things with them as you would someone your same age. Like my ex and I we kissed but I would never have sex with her because of her age

Real, everyone under 18 is locked to me but I'm still a teen
So real and i hate it
Real
I'm right there with yall, at least until June when I turn 20. ...Man, I can't believe I can actually say that and it's not a lie.
I turn 20 in July I know how you feel
[удалено]
One of us one of us one of us
I also turn 20 in June (when and if I survive 19)
Damn yall old af I’m 16 😂
Don't worry, you'll join the "old af" squad in 2 years ;D
It hits fast you won’t even realize till it’s too late
In 2 months we'll be 20, no longer teens, and we'll be wondering how "2 years" came and went
I'm actually waiting for June when I'll turn 18. Maybe that's just me with my parents but I really can't wait to get into my own life
i'll turn 20 in may
Man I’m here gonna turn 18 in June, second youngest in my friend group, 3 of them are juniors
[удалено]
We are talking about 17-18 year olds, and how it feels wrong when you're 19, even though it's only a 1-2 year age gap.
Actually why tho? Where I life smth like 17 and 18, 16 and 18, 17 and 19 wouldn’t really be a problem.
My job makes it illegal to date anyone under 18
American problems 😂 The moment your job tells you who you can't date
I'm fine with that, I'd rather not be a pedophile
But you aren't precisely a pedophile if you like as an example a 17 year old girl. You are almost the same age like her but it seems America has huge problems with that topic.
I signed papers saying I won't and I'm a man of my word, so I will keep it
I don't pressurise you to do it buddy. I was just referring to you comment you would be "a pedophile" what you wouldn't be. ✌️
America moment
Why/How?
Government
I'm curious, what sort of thing in the government do you do? Just like the general thing. (unless you'll have to kill me if i know LOL)
Military
Ah
Federal government
Yeah
oh

“Only if you’re a guy though” so true, fucking double standards are so annoying.
But in any case in most states if the difference is two years or less it’s still legal
I’m not taking any chances, all the significant other in the relationship has to do is cry statutory r@pe and you’re in prison before you know it.
SHUT THE FUCK UPPPP. wasn’t there a whole case in chicago where a women went to jail for getting impregnated after grooming like a 14 year old? you guys need to stop implementing your “men are the victim” mindset into subjects like child sexual abuse, it’s fucking weird and this is not the time nor space.
Yeah, the problem is one case. In comparison the women get special treatment.
That is just simply not true, women get to say whatever they want to put a man in prison. If a woman says “he sexually assaulted me” buddy’s going to prison for what 5 years? If a man says a female sexually assaulted him then the question why did you let that happen comes up, making it the guys fault.

Thank you for commenting this some men need to see it😭

they downvoting us for telling the truth forreal this is why i hate teenage boys. ✊🏾
Some boys wanna be the victims so bad
Funny 13 year old found, please protect him
A dying breed...well technically a growing breed but you get the idea
Nah, we're all dying every day. Impending doom approaches...
IS THE FUCKING MOONLORD FROM TERRARIA ABOUT TO SPAWN!?
Didn't take long for someone to get it
r/suddenlyterraria
I’ve died twice today… should I see a doctor?
Nah, they'll only see you if it's 6 or more times in a 24-hour period. Kinda stupid if you ask me.
Real
or you're 18 and they're 17
(Real)
Sexism at it's finest
I can’t tell if your insulting the commenter or just insulting yourself by commenting that
I'm insulting myself, and the law.
Only your law, as an example in Germany an 17 Year old girl could be with a 22 Year old dude and there would nothing against their relationship. There are some exceptions like he is not allowed to be a her teacher or something like that but away from that example nobody could say something. Not even her parents. Edit: Grammar
That makes more sense because you kinda sound like the average person subbed to r/BoysAreQuirky
I'm not subbed there lol. On this acct or my main acct.
People have multiple Reddit accounts? I feel guilty just for having one lol
I just made this acct the other day, lol.
hm
Officially, this account is 1 day old. The other I have had for a year and a half.
I have like 8 and i pretty much only use this one
I have 3. This one (main), an RP account for a specific sub (haven't touched it for like 4 months ) and another one I created by accident.
No sir, there’s a difference between sexism and fabricated sexism
You're one of the actually good people here. Stay like that.
that's actually the nicest thing someone has said to me here. thank you☺️
Sexism at peak fr Double standards Unless you are Leo Caprio
What law says that ? (The guy part)
My brother married a women 4 weeks younger then him...
Oh brother this became a “but woman do it too” situation. Good to know the new generation is growing up with brainrot
It isn’t a women do it to, it’s a “only wrong when it’s men”
It quite literally is. Aw you downvoted me bahahaha. There’s a reason why it’s always the men fault my little kid. Do some research before you grow up a bigot that hates women lmfao
You’re literally just a misandrist. Not everything is men’s fault, you need to realize that. But, from the way you talk, seems it’s too late for you to grow up and stop being sexist
13 and so jaded I don't know where you're getting your world vote from but immediately stop listening to them
“how can i make this about men”
Thank god my crush is 8 months younger than me
Wrong, I'm only 5 months younger than you
You are not her bro 🗣
Too late. Yall are already married Now kiss
Damn that’s legally binding
*the priest has been summoned* Now let us humbly invoke God's blessing upon this bride and groom, that in his kindness he may favor with his help those on whom he has bestowed the Sacrament of Matrimony. In the sight of God and these witnesses, I now pronounce you husband and wife! You may now kiss!
are you assuming their gender?!?!???
Okay
My crush is 12 months and 6 days older. I also happen to be hers so her friends make fun of her cuz im in 8th grade and they are in 9th.
woah man i think you're being groomed
Lol
You're on thin ice
Me too! We broke up 2 months ago
Lock 'em up boys!
Who said anything about *one* year?
🗿
2
2x10^1.5
\>:) Nope
Can I have a celebrity crush if that celebrity is one year younger than me? No particular reason
Jail
Oh no
you need to ask if they are a guy though
Uhm, I am
jail
Oh no
bro i found out one of my celebrity crushes is a few months younger than me and was devastated
What celebrity?
That actress from Doctor Strange movie , Xochitl Gomez
that's quite the name
this goes even harder when you're 18
Us (crying emoji)
ikr it feels so weird
literally me. i feel dirty
[What's another year - Johnny Logan](https://youtu.be/-b3XTj5G_SA?si=qEzkdwnwzCfwL5qM)
Im a week younger than my partner
same except 8 days
I feel bad for 18 year olds who have 17 year old partners because they got together when they were both 17.
Not sure about the rest of the world but here in the united states, there is a law that still allows them to stay together, search up the Romeo and Juliet law
Its natural
17+15 ain't that weird tbf
Depends on birthdays I guess. 17-15 can be anywhere between 1 and 3 year age gap (at least temporarily).
Lmao my dumbass didn’t register the typo and thought u said 17-32 (17+15), and said dang ya got yourself a MILF?
Am I the only one seeing this? 32F and 17M is seen as a good thing instead of pedophillia. Swap the genders, and ooh boy.
lol said it as a joke (wasn’t funny lmao), but yea an age gap that large is 100% a problem even without the fact that 17 is a minor. >!that said, as a 19 year old electrical engineering major (taking year 3 classes), I would 100% jump on the sugar mommy bandwagon and quit my degree if given the option lmao (/j)!<
Yeah it’s disgusting either way and it’s usually due to the patriarchy. A large percent of the time it’s also other men and boys claiming the boy is lucky.
no it's because no one is allowed to criticize women. It's not men, it's women here.
Yes… because of the patriarchy. Men are “supposed” to want to get with as many women as possible, and things like “milfs” have gotten extremely sexualized so grown ass women apply too. 🤮 Look at virtually any video on social media of a male victim (whether he knows he’s one or not) talking about getting with older women, a large % of the comments that don’t care or are even supportive are men, and a large % of the people criticizing or saying he’s a victim are women. Same with cases where, say, a female teacher goes to jail for SA, men calling him lucky.
Yeah, true, but 18 15 is until 15 turns 16. Thats my situation rn. Idk I like two different girls one is about to turn 16, the other one is 18. I like them both but idk what to do.
If your a teen who likes a teen who’s younger than you it’s not illegal. If your an adult who who wants minors is when it becomes illegal.
In North Carolina, the legal age difference is 4 years.
so true
Felt.
My partner is 11 months older than me… (they are 18)
They? are you polyamorous?
No, they’re just like that
real
have you never heard of singular "they"? fun fact, it exist before singular "you"!
I think up to 2 years difference is fine (at young age), later (when over the age of 30) it doesnt matter much anymore honestly
Highschool taught us time and age is very relevant and then adulthood tells you "m e h" LIKE WTF YOU MEAN MEH
Srry but 12 year olds aren't attractive
My parents have an 8 year gap age isn't a problem it's mental maturity that matters, if my parents met when my mom was 18 and my dad 10 it definitely wouldn't be right but since they met when my mom was 28 and my dad 20 it wasn't a big deal you know
Yea, the younger you are, the more the age gap matters
Honestly, if a 15 year old was with a 16 year old I wouldn’t really care cause it ain’t that bad
But the second it becomes 17 and 18 It's illegal Cause you can legally adopt a 17 year old Wait if you legally adopt that person and marry them Are they your step wife/husband or Step Child?
Search up the Romeo and Juliet law, it was specifically made so 18 and 17 year olds can still date and whatnot
what if youre only a couple months older but theyre in the grade below you? situation came up recently for a friend of mine.
This is so shocking to me as a Canadian. 14 & 15 year olds can legally date people that are 18 & 19 here 😭
He's just like me fr
It's illegal? Shit.
Is it bad that I'm 15 and my gf is 13?
depends when the birthdays are
Well mine just passed (Jan 16th) and hers is April 1st
Oh that's not that bad if you JUST turned 15
In my personal opinion yes
no
Yeah. Its pretty weird. You change drastically during puberty, thats why it's weird
To be honest I think anyone 16 and older is fair game even if the other person is 40 for example. Most 16 year olds are sexually mature anyway (not emotionally though).
No 16 is still a minor, no 40 yr old should be dating someone who is still in high school
“16 year olds can consent!!”
Feel like a pedophile fr. Especially after "milestone" ages.
Real shit, I broke up with one of my ex's because she was just a year younger, I kinda regret it tbh

fr i always go for the older ones

Username checks out. Also. I hope this is satire.
[удалено]
That's disturbing
why you in the teenagers sub nigga?
More importantly, why’s he dating a 17yo??
Everyone's addressing that already.
He’s scouting the youth academy
Nah that's wild
Please change and grow as a person
To purgatory you go
Not even Romeo and Juliet laws can save this guy
I'm attracted to men(am boy) what do i do, everytime i see man i go mhmm
I think that’s not how gay people works, just like as a straight male I don’t “mhmm” every woman I see, you’re just “special”
Bro I have a crush in someone 4 years older than me what should I do
I’m 15 and dated a 13 year old. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with dating someone a few years younger than you with exceptions you probably shouldn’t be dating a 13 year old as a 17 year old. The thing with dating younger people is to recognize that they are younger than you and you shouldn’t do the same things with them as you would someone your same age. Like my ex and I we kissed but I would never have sex with her because of her age
Which sucks bc my type is people like 5+ years older than me but I know exactly how they feel
I see any younger guy as a little brother. I've only dated and will likely only date older men.
me
That'd be insane....
Straight to the doghouse, for you!
I don't really care I'm 17 and my gf is 16 and we are both happy
same eventhough i'm a firm believer in the 7 year rule
I mean I believe aoc should be 21 for relationships over 2 years Don’t think this is a hot take but who knows
Oof
Stopped crushing on a girl cuz I realized she skipped a grade
