I'll never get why there's some negative stigma towards someone simply pointing out the difference when it's used improperly. All you guys do here is try to correct and one-up each other over the smallest, pettiest mistakes anyway ("Acktually it's asocial, not anti-social").

Pointing out the difference and trying to downplay someone doing something really bad are two different things and it probably says more about the person doing the accusing.

it's because usually the most upset by the distinction and therefore more driven to correct this error is probably an ephebophile at least. not necessarily, but usually.

How does a 31 year old even befriend a 19 year old? I'm 34 and the thought of hanging out with 17 and 18 year olds seems so weird to me. I have nephews and nieces that age and they are like kids to me. I cant fathom being sexual with other kids that age, its so creepy.

It's not something that you would know about a person for sure, which is why I think it's a bit silly for someone to assume that about someone else simply for correcting a term of all things.
Now if the person is expressing interest in an underaged child and are trying to downplay it because of their age, then, yeah that's pretty shitty. In fact, some clown was doing that earlier today which is probably what inspired this topic.

the idea is when you're college age, you still haven't gotten your life figured out, so really you should be dating someone else in college or fresh out of college. at least that's how I see it

She was the bartender at a social club (bar) that I was a member of. Think VFW or whatever.

I had an extra ticket to a concert and she was a fan of the band and we got along pretty well. She went with me in a group setting and we became friends after.

Yeah, but you can usually tell the difference between someone being pedantic and someone caring for a TOTALLY different reason.

Age gap aside, both are still considered young adults. It's not out of the realm. They could've met in college, work, etc. etc.

I was 28 when I received my Bachelors and I was literally surrounded by younger people.

Not always. I think epebophilia can extend to age 18 or 19

The 3 terms have nothing to do with the law and they were invented before modern sex consent laws. They are science terms not legal terms

D

Most of human history including some civs only a few centuries old survived primarily through arranged marriages of ephebophilia. I don't endorse it. I don't support it. But I'm not ignorant of history and recognize the degree of it being bad and actual pedophilia being so much worse.

Like legally (and morally imo) there's no difference. To me it feels like these (legal) pedophiles are deflecting away to a different definition which doesn't really make them seem any better except in their own heads.

See that's the issue here. People assume when someone says "well actually....." They are trying to excuse it. But no. At least I am not. It's still wrong most of the time and still against the law. I just like to use the right word. It has nothing to do with pretending like it's ok or legal. All pedophilia is illegal. All he ephelia is illegal. Like 75% of ephebophelia is illegal

I mean it's literally just as true to call them pedophiles like ephebophiles. They may have different meanings but both equally there real life consequences and, contextually, one is not more true than the other. It adds nothing but to separate from a label that is equally valid, and I can understand it only as them rationalizing their orientation to help them seem more normal, to be morally superior even though they're honestly no different.

You wanna discuss reasons why people are pedo/epheb/whatever from like, an evolutionary standpoint or to find reasons why people are like that, that's fine. Use those terms and so will I. I just see these "well actuallys...." pop up in discussions regarding the legal sense or some other context.
