There's a difference between a 15-year-old and a 5-year-old, you know?
She should not be able to walk down the street without constant reminder of making this statement about victims of sex trafficking. Absolute monster of a person.

Yeah, that seems on brand
Yes, it's technically Hebephilia or Ephebophilia. That doesn't change the level of disdain.
Yes, it’s technically
Exactly the same if I started to call driving with a blood alcohol level between 0.8% and 25% "happy fun time driving" and pretended that means it's no longer the same as DUI...
People can make up all the terms they want, don't change the law tho.

Holy shit they're actually doing the hebophile bit
Yeah, but it's impossible to explain without sounding like a pedophile....
TIL hebophile and ephebophile, two words I didn’t want to know existed.
It is a useful distinction when considering possible rehabilitation. In general conversation it's just weird.
I mean it's kind of important to be more mindful about the choice of words in general as many people say pedophile but mean child predator.
There are many people born with that attraction to kids that never act on it or even actively seek help.
The whole "let's call everyone a pedophile" is doing more harm than good as it creates a huge stigma preventing people from looking for help.
That said: they are 100% not caring about that at all and just moving the goalpost...
I do 100% agree that the concept of having hugely varied terms for pedophile, and say the term Minor attracted person, and get really sick of hearing people lash out on when the term MAP is used to say "You just want to protect pedophiles".
No I want people who have the urge to abuse children, to get treatement and never act on it and live peaceful happy lives where they never harm an innocent person, and to me that is far better of an outcome than a child being abused, but supposedly it gets made up for by the abuser getting tortured in prison.
It is so predictable that conservatives would end up in "Pedophilia isn't that bad" once it became undeniable that Great Leader raped little girls.
funny that QAnon stuff circled around Dems having pedo-leanings and that was an OUTRAGE yet now it turns out to be OK, Humane even... wtf? Their morals exist only to stick it to anyone opposing them and they evaporate the second one of their own is caught doing exact thing
He's not a Pedophile unless he comes from the Pedo region of Epstein Island, otherwise he's just sparkling child molester.
Im sorry, is this a conversation about the degree to which he is a pedophile?
This is one of the wildest most disgusting goal post moves I've ever heard
What are they even defending here. Even if they were 18 year old trafficked women it would be heinous.
It’s not like he was dating young girls or some shit, this is about sex crimes of which their age is only one of the awful awful factors.
When you start making defenses that involve distinguishing between pedophilia and hebephilia you lost a long time ago.
Law enforcement baits out pedos to arrest using fake 16 year olds all day long. They can't spin this.
Here it begins. Republicans will want to normalize pedophilia.
These people are sick. Saying this is public should earn a person an automatic 48 hour mental welfare hold.
"This is this person's view, who was there for a lot of this, but that he was into the barely legal type. Like, he liked 15-year-old girls," she continued. "I'm just giving you facts that he wasn't into, like, 8-year-olds. But he liked the very young teen types that could pass for even younger than they were, but would look legal to a passerby."
"And that is what I believed and that is what I reliably was told for many years."
Kelly admitted that she began to change her opinion after Attorney General Pam Bondi claimed that Epstein had thousands of videos with child sexual abuse material.
"For the first time, I thought, oh, no, he was an actual pedophile," the conservative host recalled.
Megan "I was fine with him fucking teenagers" Kelly, everyone.
But he liked the very young teen types that could pass for even younger than they were, but would look legal to a passerby."
How does this make any sense at all? How does one "pass as even younger" but still somehow "look legal to passersby"? Those are directly conflicting concepts.
She has a 14 year old daughter
If you tell someone not to fuck kids and their response is "actually 15 year olds aren't kids" then that person is a pedo.
hand gestures, trump voice It's called ephuba... epheeba... ephebiolphilia, folks, look it up. These girls. Women. Beautiful women, because you know, I'm only attracted to beautiful. I ran the miss USA pagent for years, you know that? I'm very proud of it. They call me up sometimes and say, "Mr. Trump, the evil, socialist communist left says beauty pagents are wrong and we have to give awards to ugly ladies with nose rings. Please come back". I have to tell them I'm just too busy saving America. But these women aren't kids. They're smart, intelligent ladies. The left hates beautiful women. They say "Donald is robbing the cradle he's a pedophile". That's fake news. Fake. News. Children don't have... well you know just look at these girls. They're very well-endowed, these ladies and I won't bow down to the evil communists. They're the pedophiles folks. Why doesn't anyone look into sleepy Joe sniffing all those girls' hair - it's creepy. But I'm attracted to beautiful. All the most beautiful things... you've seen my new bathroom, right? It's the greatest bathroom in the history of indoor plumbing... Kim told me that on the phone yesterday. He said he could see it through the window in pictures.
goddamn this fucking talking point is spreading. Just yesterday I was watching a video where some maga piece of shit was questioning a streamer about why he thinks its wrong that adults rape 13 year olds. Pretty soon we're going to have absolutely no choice except physical violence.

If you use the definition of hebephilia or ephebophilia as an argument about anything I'm going to think of you as a pedophile.
I wonder if I'm even capable of being so dedicated to someone that I'd become such a gross fucking weirdo to defend them.
Fuuuuuuuuuck

15 still isn't legal though.

That didn't happen.
And if it did, it wasn't that bad. <----- We are here
And if it was, that's not a big deal.
And if it is, that's not my fault.
And if it was, I didn't mean it.
And if I did, you deserved it.
progress at last
Megan Kelly follows the "if you're old enough to bleed, you're old enough to breed" playbook.
He's a hebephile not a pedophile isn't much of a defence. So he goes after 11+yo children instead of children less than 11yo? Also most people don't know, or rightly care, about the age distinction - both are child abusers.
Oh, they're going the "explaining the difference between a pedophile, a hebephile, and a ephebophile" route. Let's see if it works out for them.
Thank God the Right is out here protecting our kids from transpeople. /sarcasm
It's already been pointed out how wrong and gross this is.
But for the sake of discussion let's give her the biggest possible benefit of the doubt.
So then the president of the united states was ONLY a human sex slave trafficker. Super.
unfortunately I think her handlers know that simply planting a seed of doubt will work on many in their audience.
