There is no logical leap. This is a direct quote:
"I am skeptical of the claim that voluntarily pedophilia harms children. The arguments that it causes harm seem to be based on cases which aren't voluntary, which are then stretched by parents who are horrified by the idea that their little baby is maturing."
- prepend 6y agoThat quote is nothing to do with apologizing for statutory rape. Also, statutory rape is completely different than child sexual abuse. Pedophilia is child sexual abuse and a much more serious crime than statutory rape. I don’t think the quote above apologizes for either. Since you conflated pedophilia with statutory rape, it would be irrational for me to claim you somehow support pedophilia because you claimed it was similar to statutory rape. But I wouldn’t do that because trying to label you based on a single comment is foolish.
- torthrowaway998 6y ago>Pedophilia is child sexual abuse Pedophilia is the sexual attraction to children to be more specific, it is not child sexual abuse.
- prepend 6y agoGood point, to be more accurate I should say that the crimes carried out because of pedophilia are more more severe than the crime statutory rape.
