Yes obviously there is a distinction between children and teenagers.
I have no issue with teenagers being with other teenagers (to a level- a thirteen year old with an eighteen year old is skeevy to me).
I work with teenagers. I know people say "well I was mature so it's fine" like their experience echoes the majority of teenagers (and yes, sometimes this is true. I have good friends who have been together over twenty years and she was eighteen, him twenty-nine when they got together). The fact is, most teenagers are trying to find themselves. It's a difficult time negotiating puberty and the world. The adult brain actually isn't fully mature until twenty-five. But for a person less than eighteen in particular, I do look down upon someone much older to court them. Sure, it's "legal" depending on where you are. But I hate this notion we have in society about "jail bait" it's creepy and fucking wrong. A teenaged girl (in particular) may think she has the knowledge to be secure in her sexuality, but (as mentioned above) for a variety of reasons she may not be. This is why we have laws around much older people attempting to groom teenagers.

I mean, sure? But the secret literally says, "I understand still thinking it's creepy IRL." So I'm not really sure who you're arguing with here, or what this has to do with the secret.

A teenaged girl (in particular)

Why girls in particular?

NAYRT

Pregnancy, the potential of life-long effects to a single incident of casual sex, and the way some guys will complain that they won't be able to feel anything with a condom on.

I just realized that people are assuming heterosexuality in this thread. That is not my default assumption, lol!

This is an argument for sex ed and consent ed starting EARLY. Really early. And also for fighting like hell to preserve abortion rights. The right to end an unwanted pregnancy is SO FUCKING IMPORTANT.

[(Anonymous)]

THIS. Like, I think safe sex is very important, and it needs to be impressed upon teens exactly how important it is to USE PROTECTION.

But at the same time, getting pregnant doesn't have to be this huge, horrible, terrifying thing that's going to ruin your life, and it makes me absolutely furious that it's made to be this huge, horrible, terrifying thing because abortion is either unavailable, extremely difficult to procure, or so deeply stigmatized that teens can't bring themselves to get one when they need it.

The message should basically be, 1. Do not be a fucking dumbass and have unsafe sex, but 2. If you ARE a fucking dumbass and you DO have unsafe sex and you DO get pregnant: DON'T PANIC, there's a fix for that! (But there may not be a fix for your STD, so once again: Don't be a fucking dumbass. USE PROTECTION.)

This, all of this!

The distinction is fine. But, I had to stop reading stuff about "The Teacher" because lots of people will lecture about how the relationship as portrayed wasn't *really* abusive and we're a bunch of prudes for interpreting the text as given.
