A place to talk about Minor-Attracted People, and MAP/AAM-related issues. The attraction itself, associated paraphilia/identities and AMSC/AMSR (Adult-Minor Sexual Contact and Relations).

You also couldn't expect an 80 year old to handle very rough sex the way a 20 year old could, yet its not illegal.
This made me think... This absurd legal disparity only makes sense in view of parental over protection.
This blanket banning of adult-child relationships is akin to banning relationships between men and women, or able-bodied and disabled people, because of a supposed power imbalance among those groups. Well, maybe some people would call that reasonable, but I don't.
Agree 100%.
Squinting helps filtering the noise and seeing the underlying pattern.
I used to think that no longer being physically attracted to someone meant I was a shallow person, but compared to other relationships I witnessed, I viewed myself differently. I also began to wonder if being in a relationship indefinitely was even a healthy thing. I like to imagine my emotional connection to someone will allow me to continue being their friend no matter how old they become, but I will always be predominantly attracted to children or young adults.
