A ephebophile is a older adult who are sexually attracted to 15 and 19.

It really grinds my gears that society doesn’t have a problem with a 18 year old having consensual sex with a 17-year-old. Even though the 18 year old is an adult and the 17 year old is a minor. But if 26 year old has consensual sex with a 18 year old. Ah then society has a problem. But why should that be a problem? When both actions are completely harmless as long as both people are consenting adults.

    Love how you just dodge my question So I will ask you again do you think a 26 year old man who is only sexually attracted to 18 and 19 year old woman is. not a ephebophile By definition?

      for, like, the fifth time…

      first, i don’t believe you’re interested in that, or you wouldn’t be here trying to convince everyone it’s ok to fuck kids. but, also:

      Straw man

      A straw man fallacy (sometimes written as strawman) is the informal fallacy of refuting an argument different from the one actually under discussion, while not recognizing or acknowledging the distinction.[1] One who engages in this fallacy is said to be “attacking a straw man”.
