    I said it was objectively terrible, I didn’t mention morals. :)

    Harming people is terrible, whether or not social morality supports it.

        No, but it was harmful.

        I’m talking about the objective harm of encouraging underage girls to avoid study and live their lives in the service of older men. There is nothing good that can be said about such a thing. It’s basically indentured servitude.

          Ok, it wasn’t seen as relatively more harmful than anything else that would cause strain in a young person’s social, educational, and professional growth. Like an overinterest in sports or gambling or books.

            I’m not talking about how it was seen. I’m talking about how it is. There’s a difference.

            Cutting off hands was seen as socially acceptable at certain times in history, if someone was merely accused of theft. But it is horrific and terrible. How it was seen as irrelevant to it being terrible objectively terrible.

            Are you just trolling, or are you actually trying to defend some of that behavior?

              I’m not talking about how it was seen. I’m talking about how it is.

              Ok, have fun with that, because that’s not what I was talking about at all.

              are you actually trying to defend some of that behavior?

              Fuck you for trying to win internet points by trying to paint someone as agreeing with pedophilia. It’s fucking disgusting and you should be ashamed of yourself.

                  Then you need drugs or therapy or maybe to get off the internet for a while, because you’re so damn eager to find someone to throw your righteous anger at you decided to paint people as pedophiles. It’s fucking sick. Stop. Get help.
