What happened to that guy?

is he in jail?

He stepped down IIRC

Didn't he try to deflect by saying he was gay or something lame?

Probably

```Pederasty or paederasty (US: /ˈpɛdəræsti/ or UK: /ˈpiːdəræsti/) is a (usually erotic) homosexual relationship between an adult male and a pubescent or adolescent male. ```

Since when is pederast a word wtf

Fuck english man

Why can't we just use pedophile

This is more specific

Pedophilia used to have a stricter meaning (attraction to prepubescent children of all genders) that has been broadened by people who like the shock value of the word

That too

And then when you mention the proper terminology people get buttflustered

Lol

R Kelly likes young girls, illegally young, but I'm not sure I could call him a pedo

Is it because he has a lot of money?

Nah, some poor people are into underage as well

I mean, eh, call them pedophiles if you want, I'll know what you mean

It just muddies the waters more tbh

Boop

muddy the waters by throwing in Ephebo

I think being pedantic about it is more trouble than I care to get into. But if I'm choosing my own words I'll distingiush between pedophile, pederast, and whatever Humbert Humbert is

usually erotic?

wait

what

so there are non erotic pederasts?

what kind of a half ass word is that?

How does being more specific muddy the waters?

I imagine in the culture of ancient Greeks there were people involved in that community that just ended up being straight men who just took the boys on as students and proteges.

you imagine?

there are records you know

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pederasty if you don't mind telling the FBI you're reading on the subject

you just ruined this server

cant we have nice things anymore?

now fbi is here

Like I would say it does more damage to the conversation to fail to distinguish between, for instance, an adult who has intercourse with a 16 year old vs a 6 year old (particularly when the former is only regionally a legal issue). The term has more impact if it's specific and towards the severe end

proabably even sessions is here
