As to #4, if you're actively defending particular people's views on sex with underage people, then yeah, people are going to view you negatively by association.

As to #4, if you're actively defending particular people's views on sex with underage people, then yeah, people are going to view you negatively by association. The vast majority of people vehemently disagree with that view, and for the most part, people assume that if you defend the view, it's probably because you agree with it.
- bigbugbag 7y agoThing is here, RMS was talking about an accusation being misqualified in relation to Mens Rea and some person took offense and misrepresented his words to present him as saying something else[1]. Then again I beg to differ, the vast majority of people do not live in the US and have different local definition of underage, also the US has a reputation for having a fascination for sex with teenager (one of the most popular porn sites categories during the last 25-30 years).

- jeegsy 7y agoThough difficult, I endeavor to differentiate between an action and words in 'defense'(for lack of a better word) of said action.
