No, you are incorrect here. It is 100% not against the law. And the laws are written based on our cultural norms. In fact, many of our grandmothers were married and pregnant by the time they were 17. And you cannot stretch the term pedophilia to fit every situation that you dont 100% agree with. Thats what people have done with the term racism. Not everything is pedophilia and when you try to paint it that way it does a disservice to efforts to fight against real pedophilia.


There’s so much gray in here that I don’t even know what you’re arguing. Let’s boil it down and you answer:

Under the premise that this girl is under the age of consent (underage), is Giddey:
a) breaking the law
B) not breaking the law

Next question. Under same premise, is Giddey engaging in:
A) pedophilia
B) not engaging in pedophilia

I mean there is an actual definition of pedophilia

It’s not sexual attraction to an underage child, its sexual attraction to a prepubescent child

He is likely engaging in ephebephilia

OP did a terrible job presenting the facts.

There's no report that she is under the age of consent that I've seen. And OP actually never even mentions what she is under the age of, smoking age? drinking age? rental car age? driving age? age of candidacy?

It’s pretty simple. If she’s below the age of consent then he absolutely broke the law. If she’s beyond puberty then he is absolutely not engaging in pedophilia.

What is a completely different argument is whether or not something being against the law specifically makes it wrong and does this alleged incident not qualifying as pedophilia make it okay.
