What about an under age "boy" with a hot arse teacher?

Hypocrite much

Hell, let's go deeper.

Male student / female teacher - hell yeah
Female student / male teacher - kill his arse
Male student / male teacher - kill both
Female student / female teacher - are they hot?

You understand there is a GIANT frickING bias here?

It's still rape and is immoral. An adult sleeping with a minor is just wrong and an abuse of power

Right. But no one calls the 30 year old female teacher a pedophile.

I said that Milo's book is in high demand based on preorders. The cancelling of the book is a disruption of the free market as there is now a disruption in the supply that has nothing to do with organic supply and demand.


Disruption of the free market? The publisher is under no obligation to publish anything. This has nothing to do with supply or demand. This isn't an economics discussion. It's simply a business decision on the part of the publisher.

If you want to make it an economics discussion: If the demand is high enough, market will work itself out and another publisher will pick up the book. If no one touches the book then that's the market's way of saying that the green wasn't worth the potential for negative pub.

I'll slit the throat of a pedo and watch them bleed out with no emotion. Let's just determine real pedos.

He's a gay Jew. It was only a matter of time that caught up to him. Not saying it's right but you know ppl out there were out to get him. In both sides.

Did Simon and Schuster have any real data to prove that people would not want his book anymore? Or did they bow before outrage from people who would've never bought the book ?

Fine, "pedophile" is wrong in the strict sense that he's not describing pre-pubescent boys, but a grown man having sex with a minor boy is still extremely wrong and should never be condoned or defended.



While I don't disagree with you that it's wrong, it doesn't change that fact that these sort of mutual arrangements are not unusual. When you start peeling back the layers of sexuality, you'll find that a lot of people are into what can be termed as pretty weird shite. The reaction of Joe Rogan in the video in question is of someone who doesn't have a frame of reference to what Milo is talking about. It's shocking and disturbing and you can tell the way Milo dances around it, that he knows it's something he shouldn't go deep into detail over. Pedophilia is disgusting behavior by itself, but going into detail about older gay men keeping and grooming very young, teenage boys would have been just as shocking because most people are unaware of the world around them.

I don't think sales (of this book) have much to do with his former publisher's decision- Milo pushed the limit too far he might have pissed off a cash cow fiction author or threatened the imprint's reputation.

not saying the behavior wasn't creepy but I'm pretty sure those ages are way off from remembering the controversy a couple of years back (from what I remember the ages were much closer like 2-3 years apart).
