;_; hes not an old man

45 with a son is way too old for a high school student, autists

It's trad, dude

*no*

*says the guy dating an older woman*

LOL

~4 years = 30 years and a son

Cool

AND WE ARENT DATING WE JUST WENT ON A DATE

Shes only 1 year off from it being considered normal

*no*

laws =/= morality

I said nothing of laws

Its legal in japan

> I didnt say laws
> I said it was legal

<:brainlet:402673657391874059>

Before you brought up laws, all I said was it would be considered normal

Its not normal tho

30 years and a son is pretty gross

5, 10, 15, 20????? *maybe*********
But 30 years and a son?

ooof

Thats gross

Its not like I would condone it in real life, I would never tell a 17 year old girl to be a stepmom

But anime lets you suspend disbelief for a bit

That's part of the fun of anime

> watching pedophelia is part of the fun of anime
thats cool

>pedophelia

> buhhhhhh consent laws make it okay
> buhhhhh consent is the only thing that matters
<:brainlet:402673657391874059>

Okay, Destiny

17 is not pedophilia

> its not pedophilia is hebophilia!!!
okay, reddit

Dude

Blaze, now you're just being unreasonable

Your chick is not a pedophile for being with a 16 year old

^

> early twenties = late fourties
*aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa*

Okay, so now the other persons age determines whether its pedophilic, even though they're both adults?

It's just an anime, you're not going to disavow traps and catbois now are you?

> if they're both adults its okay

not very trad

It's Alt-Trad

In traditional european Christian societies, women would get married in their early teens to men in their 20s and above

HOLY SHIT THATS STILL COMPLETELY DIFFERENT REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

This feels like the same sort of arguementation used by the folks that keep asking Nick to disavow traps and catbois all the time

It's just an anime, it's fine

I dont want to watch it tho, I think thats gross

Don't watch it bro its okay

Good, I'm gonna eat some food and (re)watch some GOOD anime

This anime doesn't condone pedophilia

+1

Lol Blaze

We can all agree that Bebop is great at least

Alyssa hasn't seen it because she's a romance dweeb. Very sad!

Harsh neg

What can I say, I'm a shoujou anime type. I didn't even see NGE until I talked to Nick about it

Bebop has some good romance elements, though they are more subtle. It also has some religious themes that you'd probably like.

a 17 yo girl isn't really like

what pedos go for lmao

its basically a grown woman

If you watch til episode 5, you'll be hooked @Alyssa Cordelia

Especially if you liked Eva

Hm, I'll have to give it a shot! I know its a classic

@donut true

lso Koi to Uso is about a future Japan

where an algorithm determines your future spouse

so arranged marriages

and it's really hard to get out of them

its super good though 😃

Ohh, that sounds really interesting! I'll have to check that one out too

basically MC was in love with this one girl

@donut I watched the first two episodes of that one, really like it, but I forgot to keep up with it when it was airing

and she confesses to him the night before his 15th birthday (you get your "note" at 15)

and the person he gets as his spouse isnt the girl he was in love with

and yeah

it goes on from there

the first episode is amazing so it should hook you

and it has a very shoujo art style

17 and 18 are ok ages

In my humble opinion, I dont think you're a pedophile if you're attracted to 17/18 year old. There are people who are more strict though

But I especially think its okay if its just dating and doing cute things, with no explicit or dirty things

I'd agree with that, especially when within the context of a Christian relationship

reminder loli is a body type

theres def

people develop at different ages

a maturity difference

and a 40+ year old man can for sure take advantage of a girl in her late teens

but it's not pedophilia

just abuse

lol

There are 18 year olds that look like kids and 12 year olds that look like models

Hence just no sex until after marriage works

I think that part of why it worked so well in the trad Christian societities, they where getting married right after puberty, which would curb a lot of the pre-marital sex nonsense you see today.

Also, they were having puberty later than today. Chemicals in the water have screwed with that.

actually.....

i mean it also had to be approved by the parents

which helps lol

Due to the smaller life expectancy it was earlier

Women having children at 16 was normal
